Issue with share only text on Facebook using FacebookSDK

In my application i want to share only text on facebook. For that i am using FacebookSDK.

My Code for that is as below:

NSDictionary *params = @{
                   @"name" :[NSString stringWithFormat:@"Jinx Share"],
                   @"caption" : [NSString stringWithFormat:@""],
                   @"description" :@"Some text to share",
                   @"picture" : @"",
                   @"link" : @"",
                   };


     // if the session is closed, then we open it here, and establish a handler for state changes
    [FBSession openActiveSessionWithReadPermissions:nil allowLoginUI:YES completionHandler:^(FBSession *session,FBSessionState state, NSError *error)
     {
         if (error)
         {
             UIAlertView *alertView = [[UIAlertView alloc] initWithTitle:@"Error" message:error.localizedDescription delegate:nil cancelButtonTitle:@"OK" otherButtonTitles:nil];
             [alertView show];
         }
         else if(session.isOpen)
         {

             // Invoke the dialog
             [FBWebDialogs presentFeedDialogModallyWithSession:nil
                                                    parameters:params
                                                       handler:
              ^(FBWebDialogResult result, NSURL *resultURL, NSError *error) {
                  if (error) {
                      //NSLog(@"Error publishing story.");

                  } else {
                      if (result == FBWebDialogResultDialogNotCompleted) {
                          //NSLog(@"User canceled story publishing.");

                      } else {
                          //NSLog(@"Story published.");

                      }
                  }}];
         }

     }];

But when facebook share dialogue opens, it does not show any text there. Please see below screenshot

enter image description here

And if i gave any link in "picture" parameter then it shows the text. But i don't want any image to be shown. I just want only text to share on facebook.

What is wrong with my code ? Could someone give me solution.

Since the latest Facebook SDK from the month of April, Facebook does not allow your app to pre-fill any content to be shared. This is inconsistent with Facebook Platform Policy, see Facebook Platform Policy, 2.3. Also refer this Sharing through Facebook.

This API is deprecated to share the pre-selected text in native Share dialogue. You can use Graph API with custom story to share the pre-selected text: Here is the link: https://developers.facebook.com/docs/sharing/opengraph/ios
