Socialize Twitter Login

When I sign in to Twitter via the action bar in my app, it takes me to to an Authorise 'AppName' to use your account? and then offers 2 fields: Username/email and password and a sign in button. I just wanted to know, have I done something wrong here or is this how it's meant to be, because I'm already signed into twitter on my phone so shouldn't it just offer me an 'Authorise Twitter' type button and then if I accept, I'm in??? Thanks

Not 100% sure! but fairly sure that's how it works. Even though you may be logged in on Twitter, Facebook etc, the very first time you use facility in App you still need to login to authorize, after that its automatic.

ok thanks - it just seems to offer unnecessary friction
