How to Call app when app has Closed (IOS & Android)?

[stephanoparaskeva]

Description:

• I want user to sign in. After user closes app. I want the user to still receive phone call while app is closed.
• "Closed" meaning app is completely off, not minimised.
• I am using react-native-callkeep. Using CallKit. So right now user sees the IOS/Android call UI but only while app is open.

• I want the user to see the Call UI via CallKit after the app has closed. (app not active of in background, completely closed).

Question

How does one do this with ConnectyCube RNVideoChat?

Hi @stephanoparaskeva you can use from IOS VOIP https://developers.connectycube.com/reactnative/push-notifications?id=callkit-and-voip-push-notifications for Android you can create push event https://developers.connectycube.com/js/videocalling?id=receive-a-call-in-background

Does this work when the app is completely closed?

If user is logged out after 2 hours of inactivity, how do you get this to work after app being off for > 2 hours?

Yes, after app is launched you need to authorization again (init sdk and createSession with credentials) https://developers.connectycube.com/js/authentication-and-users?id=create-session-token

If you use p2p calls you need connect to chat and set call listeners https://developers.connectycube.com/js/videocalling?id=accept-a-call

If you use videocalling-conference you need put roomId to push message (https://developers.connectycube.com/js/push-notifications?id=send-push-notifications) and then join to that room https://developers.connectycube.com/js/videocalling-conference?id=join-video-room

Can we have an example implementation with react-native-callkeep of launching app after being closed and Receiving video call?

Unfortunately we don't have react-native sample with implemented react-native-callkeep Perhaps we will do it in the future
