                     {

From V4.6.0 it won't redirect to fb app. See below

(v4.6.0 - September 10, 2015) In addition, the SDK dialogs such as Login, Like, Share Dialogs automatically determine the best UI based on the device, including SFSafariViewController instead of Safari. Follow the our Preparing for iOS 9 guide.

Please set info.plist parameters properly, you may have not provided the URLs like this

<array>
        <dict>
            <key>CFBundleURLSchemes</key>
            <array>
                <string>fb776035152513539</string>
            </array>
        </dict>
</array>

and

<key>FacebookAppID</key>
<string>776035152513539</string>

If you are not able to achieve what you want,then you can use these classes.

}

- (BOOL)application:(UIApplication *)application openURL:(NSURL *)url sourceApplication:(NSString *)sourceApplication annotation:(id)annotation
{
    return [[FBSDKApplicationDelegate sharedInstance] application:application
                                                          openURL:url
                                                sourceApplication:sourceApplication

}

-(BOOL)application:(UIApplication *)application didFinishLaunchingWithOptions:(NSDictionary *)launchOptions
{
   return [[FBSDKApplicationDelegate sharedInstance] application:application didFinishLaunchingWithOptions:launchOptions];
}

@end

Add FBSDKCoreKit.Framework and FBSDKLoginKit.Framework in your project and set your app Delefate like this -

- (BOOL)application:(UIApplication *)application didFinishLaunchingWithOptions:(NSDictionary *)launchOptions
{
    self.window = [[UIWindow alloc] initWithFrame:[[UIScreen mainScreen] bounds]];
    self.window.backgroundColor=[UIColor blackColor];

 SplashViewController *rVC = [[SplashViewController alloc] initWithNibName:@"SplashViewController" bundle:nil];

    self.mNavController=[[UINavigationController alloc]initWithRootViewController:rVC];
    [self.mNavController setNavigationBarHidden:YES];

    self.window.rootViewController=self.mNavController;
    [self.window makeKeyAndVisible];

    self.handler = [[LxFaceBookHandler alloc]init];



    [self.handler application:application didFinishLaunchingWithOptions:launchOptions];
    return YES;
}
- (BOOL)application:(UIApplication *)application openURL:(NSURL *)url sourceApplication:(NSString *)sourceApplication annotation:(id)annotation
{
    return [self.handler application:application openURL:url sourceApplication:sourceApplication annotation:annotation];
}

now you can use these classes as on any event suppose on button click-

- (IBAction)FacebookLoginPressed:(UIButton *)sender
{
    App.handler.delegate  = self;
    [App.handler InitFaceBookLogin];
}
