Xcode Swift 4 Facebook & Twitter sharing no longer working?

i am using Facebook & Twitter sharing in my app , after upgrade xCode to 9.0.1 Swift 4, both are not working , the method saying i have no FB or Tw account on my device but they're already there and was working fine with Swift 3.

Log : 

2017-10-25 09:53:41.619676+0300 jack[2428:926750] [core] isAvailableForServiceType: for com.apple.social.facebook returning NO

and here is the Code : 

if SLComposeViewController.isAvailable(forServiceType: SLServiceTypeFacebook)
            {

                let shareText = "xxx"

                let facebookShare:SLComposeViewController = SLComposeViewController(forServiceType: SLServiceTypeFacebook)
                    //facebookShare.add(imageView.image!)
                    facebookShare.add(URL(string:self.track.share_url))
                    facebookShare.setInitialText(shareText)

                self.present(facebookShare, animated: true, completion: nil)

            }

if SLComposeViewController.isAvailable(forServiceType: SLServiceTypeTwitter)
            {
                let shareText = "xxx"
                let twitterSheet:SLComposeViewController = SLComposeViewController(forServiceType: SLServiceTypeTwitter)
                    twitterSheet.add(URL(string : self.track.share_url))
                    twitterSheet.setInitialText( shareText )

                self.present(twitterSheet, animated: true, completion: nil)

            }

You have to use Facebook's SDK to share: FBSDKShareKit

You can install it using cocoa pods: 

pod 'FBSDKShareKit'

Example

#import <FBSDKShareKit/FBSDKShareKit.h>

-(IBAction)sharingOnFacebook:(id)sender {
     FBSDKShareLinkContent *content = [[FBSDKShareLinkContent alloc] init];
     content.contentURL = [NSURL URLWithString:@"https://myPageWeb/"];

    [FBSDKShareDialog showFromViewController:self withContent:content delegate:nil];
}

And for Twitter the steps are similar: TwitterKit

pod 'TwitterKit'

Example:

-(IBAction)sharingOnTwitter:(id)sender {
    TWTRComposer *composer = [[TWTRComposer alloc] init];
    [composer setURL:[NSURL URLWithString:@"https://https://myPageWeb/"]];
    [composer showFromViewController:self completion:^(TWTRComposerResult result) {
        /*if (result == TWTRComposerResultCancelled) {
            NSLog(@"Tweet composition cancelled");
        } else {
            NSLog(@"Sending Tweet!");
        }*/
    }];
}

NOTE: Read Facebook and Twitter documentation because you need to do some steps for your app previously. Register the app, get the AppID...

Dont check if its available anymore; isAvailable(forServiceType:), just run it direct. I faced similar issue myself

Those have been disabled with iOS 11. You should no longer see the Facebook NOR twitter sub-menus in the iOS Settings app.

I would suggest you to use the regular sharing options or the fb/twitter APIs.
