# Web2App (From Mobile Apps to Browsers)

If you are building token-based websites or mobile apps, you can enable the SSO feature via the SDK.

When SSO-enabled is ON, the end-user will need to enter their authentication credentials when they login to the first app. Later on, when they login to the second app, they will see a **continue screen** so that they can log in with just a click, without authenticating themselves again.

{% hint style="info" %}
It is important that when the SSO feature is ON, don't set the `prompt` parameter when authenticating (e.g. `prompt=login`), it will force to show the login screen.
{% endhint %}

When the end-user logout the SSO-enabled app, all the apps will be logged out at the same time.

You can turn on this feature when you configure the SDK by setting the **is sso enabled** option to `true`.

```typescript

var authgearOptions = new AuthgearOptions
{
    ClientId = CLIENT_ID,
    AuthgearEndpoint = ENDPOINT,
    IsSsoEnabled = true,
};
// Android
#if __ANDROID__
var authgear = new AuthgearSdk(GetActivity().ApplicationContext, authgearOptions);
#else
#if __IOS__
var authgear = new AuthgearSdk(UIKit.UIApplication.SharedApplication, authgearOptions);
#endif
#endif
```

{% endtab %}

{% tab title="iOS" %}

```swift
Authgear(
    clientId: CLIENT_ID,
    endpoint: ENDPOINT,
    isSSOEnabled: true,
)
```

{% endtab %}

{% tab title="Android" %}

```java
new Authgear(
    getApplication(),
    CLIENT_ID,
    ENDPOINT,
    new PersistentTokenStorage(getApplication()),
    true // isSsoEnabled = true
);
```

{% endtab %}
{% endtabs %}

These type of SSO requires sharing the cookies between mobile apps and the system browsers on mobile, hence underlying it use `ASWebAuthenticationSession` on iOS and `Custom Tab` on Android, which will show a popup box like this:

If you want to avoid the said popup box, you will need to use `WKWebView` on iOS and `WebKitWebView` on Android for `UIImplementation` instead; And use [App2App Login](/authentication-and-access/single-sign-on/app2app-authorization.md) for sharing login session between mobile apps, and [Pre-authenticated URLs](/authentication-and-access/single-sign-on/pre-authenticated-urls.md) between mobile and web instead.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters:

```
GET https://docs.authgear.com/authentication-and-access/single-sign-on/sso-with-mobile-app-web-spa.md?ask=<question>&goal=<user_goal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `automate deployments from our CI pipeline` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
