Google Sign In - Mac Catalyst support (iPad apps to Mac)
It would be great if there was some update to this issue along with a sense of some timeframe.
Catalyst support is especially important for internal tools that use Google Auth on our end. At the very least perhaps some suggestions on alternative workarounds for the issue?
Who are you?

Any updates? (he also asked, expecting full well the answer to be crickets)
Does anybody else have thoughts or experience on possible workarounds for this problem? Any info would be greatly appreciated.
I was able to make Google Sign In work with this: https://github.com/elsesiy/GAppAuth.
@ondrejhanak Indeed, GAppAuth worked great, many thanks for the pointer. Amazing that the official SDK remains broken to this day.
@ondrejhanak @ptsochantaris Would you mind posting a gist? Having trouble with this
@natecraft1 I personally just followed the iOS instructions on the README in that repo, and things worked great, except one issue where the server needed me to add some extra auth contexts via GAppAuth.shared.appendAuthorizationRealm, in our case it needed:
GAppAuth.shared.appendAuthorizationRealm("email")
GAppAuth.shared.appendAuthorizationRealm("profile")
in order to get the same id token that the app used to send to the server when it used the Google SDK. I assume the official SDK probably adds them by default? Apart from that, it "just worked". I hope this is of some help!

What is the issue you are running into?
Chrome just redirects to google.com and the GAppAuth.shared.authorize() callback never gets called. If I change the default browser to Safari it says macOS doesn't recognize the internet address after trying to sign in with google.

after the authorize succeeds how do we sign in to Firebase? Can I use this? Auth.auth().signIn(withCustomToken: idToken)
EDIT: turns out I had to call
- (void)signInWithCredential:(FIRAuthCredential *)credential
instead and build the credential with
(FIRAuthCredential *)credentialWithIDToken:(NSString *)IDToken
accessToken:(NSString *)accessToken;
from GoogleAuthProvider
In my ViewController:
class ViewController: NSViewController {
override func viewDidLoad() {
super.viewDidLoad()
do {
try GAppAuth.shared.authorize { (success) in
// never called
}
} catch {
print(error)
}
}
What happens is that it pops Safari, and when I sign in with my email, it just lands me on google.com and the callback is not called. Could it be an issue with the redirect URI? Also, why it doesn't use the default browser? Is that configurable?
Thanks @ptsochantaris @girishw @ApostolisApo 🙌
It would be great if one of the Google devs could provide some sort of update or ETA on this.
