title: How to store account information in Xamarin.iOS Azure Mobile App?
body: <p>I use Twitter to authenticate users in an Azure Mobile App.  I want to save the account information on the phone so that users don't have to log in each time the app starts.  It's a Xamarin.iOS app.</p>
  
  <p>If I were building a Windows app, I'd use PasswordVault as explained in <a href="https://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/documentation/articles/app-service-mobile-dotnet-how-to-use-client-library/" rel="nofollow">the Azure Mobile Apps documentation under "Caching the authentication token"</a>.</p>
  
  <p>If I were using Xamarin.Auth, I'd use the <code>AccountStore</code> as explained in <a href="https://developer.xamarin.com/guides/xamarin-forms/web-services/authentication/oauth/" rel="nofollow">the Xamarin.Auth documentation under "Storing and Retrieving Account Information on Devices"</a>.</p>
  
  <p>I see that the Azure Mobile App SDK contains <a href="https://github.com/Azure/azure-mobile-apps-net-client/tree/master/src/External" rel="nofollow">a modified version of the Xamarin.Auth plugin</a>.  Can I use the <code>AccountStore</code> that way?</p>
  
  <p>If not, what's the best way to save account information in Xamarin.iOS?</p>
