IMPORTANT: This means that if a User asks for his/her Account deletion, you must do it within 24 hours, as the GDPR's "Right to be forgotten" Article states (LINK: https://gdpr-info.eu/art-17-gdpr/) 3 April 2018 • Updated to recommended settings with Xcode 9.3 • Updated the 3 Facebook SDKs (because of Swift 4.1 release): FBSDKCoreKit.framework FBSDKLoginKit.framework FBSDKShareKit.framework • Edited 'editActionsForRowAt()' method in Friends.swift, the 'blockedUser' array's instantiation and code 6 October 2017 • Edited the Location Privacy Usage keys into Info.plist. So right-click on Info.plist in Xcode, Open As -> Source code, and replace the existing NSLocation... rows with this code: NSLocationAlwaysAndWhenInUseUsageDescription This app needs to access your current location to send heys! NSLocationWhenInUseUsageDescription This app needs to access your current location to send heys! NSLocationAlwaysUsageDescription This app needs to access your current location to send heys! NSLocationUsageDescription This app needs to access your current location to send heys! In this way, the Location permission alert will show up on devices with iOS versions older than iOS 11 Hey! is a Universal App Template where you can send short messages like hey! to all those friends who are registered in the app with just a tap. It’s that simple, the simplest communication app ever. You can search for friends by name in the Search controller, add them to your Friends list and send them a hey!, attach a picture to it or your current location, or simple text of the selected hey!. They will receive a Push Notification and can easily reply to your “hey!” by sending it back. Users are able to block/unblock other users, remove them from their list and make a group of friends to send heys! all at once, again, with just a tap! Check the video preview to see it in action. Since its backend is by Parse Server, you don’t have to buy any domain/hosting, there are NO PHP files to upload to a web server so you’ll save some money for server side. Hey! is a native XCode project, Swift language, Storyboard, Universal, super easy to customize, backend with Parse SDK hosted on https://back4app.com About Parse SDK and back4app Read this article for more info about back4app and Parse SDK: https://hubpages.com/technology/Parse-SDK-will-not-shutdown-in-thanks-to-back4app Can I host Parse Server on my own server? Yes, although I don’t provide support for the setup process, you can read the official Guide here: http://parseplatform.org I get a Code signing error in Xcode 8.x That’s a bug of Xcode 8 with macOS Sierra, check this sample video to see how to fix it: https://youtu.be/z2LemT1_LqA How to remove AdMob banner ads Check this video out to see how to remove the code that shows AdMob banners: https://youtu.be/e-HQYnta2Jg Keep in mind that you must repeat the shown steps for every .swift file that contains this line on the top: import GoogleMobileAds What about free support for this template? I can offer free support for bugs encountered in the original code. Instead, if you’ve edited the code and messed something up with it, I may apply some fee to fix it either via TeamViewer or by checking your app project files directly on my computer. Should I use the latest version of Xcode to edit this template? Yes, I always update my apps to the latest version of the IDE. Why do I need to have login from Apple Account in the app? Yes, because from 30th April 2020, APPLE authorities restricted the apps using 3rd party login from FACEBOOK, GOOGLE etc should also integrate “APPLE SIGN IN” method in the app. For reference: APPLE SIGN IN GUIDELINES Terms & Policy about Back4App Users are bound to change the back4App keys and APP keys after purchasing the source code and all the related stuff from CUBYCODE.
