Today we’re making sharing from your iOS apps easy. With the native Share Dialog, you can significantly improve people’s sharing experiences from your mobile app. Similar to the Like button, you can create engaging sharing experiences with just one line of code. The Share Dialog is coming out of beta today and is ready for use in your apps through the Facebook SDK for iOS. The Share Dialog offers a lightweight and consistent way to enable sharing from your apps. People now have the option to share activity from apps through this dialog without needing to login to Facebook first. This eliminates 1 – 3 extra steps required for login when sharing via the feed dialog. The Share Dialog further improves upon the iOS 6 share sheet by adding support for publishing Open Graph actions to make it easier for people to tell their stories on mobile. In addition, people can now tag friends and share where they are enabling them to share in a more meaningful and engaging way, while helping even more people connect with your app. If you’re a mobile developer, this should be one of the first ways you integrate your app with Facebook to engage with our 750+ million mobile users. Learn more about getting started with the Share Dialog. Download the SDK now.

In March, we introduced new sections on timeline to help people express what’s important to them. Today, we're excited to announce that we've rolled out sections to everyone and are seeing almost 200 million items being added daily. Many developers have already integrated with sections to make their apps a core part of people’s identities on timeline. We've highlighted a few integrations below along with a new App Insights tool and best practices for creating your own. Sections are also a more beautiful and lasting way to display your app on timeline compared to aggregations, which we are no longer supporting. Add ratings to the Movies, TV Shows, and Books sections Apps like Netflix, Rotten Tomatoes, Goodreads have integrated with sections to let people add their favorite media content to timeline. To encourage people to share with friends, we're rolling out the ability to rate content directly on timeline and add ratings from apps. Enable song discovery from the Music section People using music a

Reach people who have taken an action in your app with 'App User IDs' At our Mobile Developer Conference on May 2nd, we announced a new targeting field for custom audiences that comes with our latest SDK, called 'App User ID'. Custom audiences let developers and marketers find their existing customers on Facebook. Using information you know about your customers, you can reach the right people on Facebook that you want to connect with. The process behind custom audiences protects people's personal information; learn more here. In addition to leveraging current customers' hashed email, phone number and Facebook UIDs for custom audiences, you can now also reach groups of people who have taken actions in your app (such as installs or purchases) with relevant ads across both desktop and mobile. With App User IDs, for example, a retail app can reach people who have made a purchase in their app with additional items they may be interested in. Or a game developer can target groups of people who installed one of
