Description

Hi, I am currently adding AppAuth to my app. I have the whole sign in process working as well as logging out of the app. But when I force quit the app the and try and log out it is forcing me to authenticate in order to log out.

I am saving the AuthState into user defaults and pulling it out when opening the app. Is there anything that I need to do in order to not have to authenticate in order to log out after force quitting the app?

Any advice is welcome. Thanks in advance!

Research direction

No file, test, or entry point is named. Start by reviewing how AppAuth-iOS restores AuthState from user defaults after launch and how the logout flow handles that restored state; done means reproducing the force-quit case and establishing whether logout can proceed without authentication.
