This repository contains completed version of the project featured in the Auth0 Blog Using a Refresh Token in an iOS Swift app. The article walks you through the process of using a Refresh Token as part of calling a protected API, once integrated with Auth0 authentication in an iOS app based on the SwiftUI framework.
- As an iOS project, it needs to be built on a computer running macOS, preferably macOS 11.6, a.k.a. “Big Sur” or later.
- The project is built using Apple’s official IDE, Xcode (preferably version 12 or later), which is available for download via the macOS App Store or from the Apple Developer site.
- You’ll need an iOS device, either real or virtual:
- If you want to deploy the app to a real iOS device, you’ll need a free Apple Developer account, which requires an Apple ID with two-factor authentication enabled.
- If you want to deploy the app to a virtual iOS device, you just need Xcode, which includes the Simulator (which simulates current iOS devices and operating systems), as well as a facility for downloading simulators for older iOS devices and operating systems.
