hi! I wanna help you with iOS version of Tox, but could not find any public keys for testing. Can you explain me how can be testing performed?

Thx.

A good way to test is to use either nTox which is bundled with ProjectTox-Core: https://github.com/irungentoo/ProjectTox-Core

Or you could use toxic, which requires you to have the core installed on your computer anyways: https://github.com/Tox/toxic

Both are command line applications and are stable for testing, making it easy to test other clients such as Toxicity.

To get their public keys you type /i for nTox, or myid for toxic. If you don't already know how the Tox core works, there is LAN discovery so once both Toxicity and toxic are running they will see each other and connect. nTox currently requires a bootstrap through the internet. I find toxic to be better for testing (more feature complete).

Glad I could help!
