Hey guys, I'm trying to implement something related to realtime texting.Having searched around Github, it seems there's no third party framework that could be free. Any idea on this? It seems Parse doesn't support realtime texting.

You can use silent notifications, or go with a service like Layer. I'm currently working on a project that's using Layer. Let me know if you have any questions on that.

I just found another service: https://github.com/relatedcode/NotificationChat but you have to pay for some advanced features.

There is a good tutorial for using cloud kit to create a chat app:

That sounds... like a nightmare :)

Maybe if you don't use MVVM
