So I’m having trouble updating the Facebook SDK for iOS and Android on my Ionic Capacitor 3 project. The Facebook SDK for iOS has to be version 8 or higher to support the new iOS 14 tracking updates.

The thing is, the Facebook dashboard sends me to this url [Facebook upgrade guide](https://developers.facebook.com/docs/app-events/upgrade-guide/). For iOS, you only have to add some pods to your Podfile, but this doesn’t seem to change anything. I’m using the capacitor plugin capacitor-firebase-auth to handle the authentication.

I’m not really sure what I’m doing wrong, is it a problem that I don’t use the Facebook SDK directly, by using it through capacitor-firebase-auth?

This is the warning I’m getting: [![enter image description here](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/ionicframework/original/3X/1/7/17de29117ec8b25b56971378e6c07421434086be.png)](https://i.stack.imgur.com/QYyUe.png)

I’m using:

- Ionic 5
- Capacitor 3
- capacitor-firebase-auth 3.0.0
- My Podfile.lock shows a FacebookSDK of 5.15.1

if it’s something related to facebook login, I really suggest to use the capacitor plugin:

That fixed it, thanks!

At first I thought it didn’t work, but the iOS SDK version on the Facebook dashboard had a delay of 3 days (so keep that in mind)
