This topic will still anybody create, so let it be me. I understand that the main users are android, but sometimes we want to keep a safe dialogue with people who have an iPhone Therefore, I believe that this class protocol must have a client for iOS.

I'm already working on an iOS version.

Things that need to be done:

amirmahdi-nsh commented 3 years ago

Unfortunately we will also have some problems in receiving messages when the app is in background. Because iOS will kill every process which is running in background If it runs for more than 10 minutes :( Also Antidote and Briar have the same problem. But I think eventually it should be solve because the Bridgefy also have iOS version and solved this problem(but due it's but open we couldn't understand how!)

amirmahdi-nsh commented 3 years ago

is it possible to refresh the process every 5 minutes?

I don't think so. But there should be a solution because Bridgefy works

@amirmahdi-nsh actually Antidote does not have that issue anymore. and it's not 10 minutes (that was a long time ago) but now its less than 30 seconds.
