Twitter-text count for iOS is not working properly - ios

I have already referred this link https://github.com/twitter/twitter-text/tree/master/objc but I think this is not updated. It still shows twitter-text with 140 characters and also it is in objective-c. It do not provide proper count of some special characters same as in twitter official. It would be of great help if someone can please help with the latest 280-character twitter count API for iOS in swift. Thanks in advance.

Are you using the v2 version of the parsing configuration file? That one has the updates for 280. We don't provide an official Swift implementation, but there's an unofficial one here https://gist.github.com/hebertialmeida/d868bd58efe8b5240e4ef8b542107099

How to use Walmart API with iOS app in Xcode? (swift language)

I've recently installed Walmart's API into my iOS app. The app's purpose is for the user to search for items using Walmart's API and then display the queried items to the user. However I am having a hard time finding any examples on how to use Walmart's API with Xcode and Swift language. Was curious if anyone could point me in the direction of how to properly use the API while using Swift language or if anyone has experience using the Walmart API in Xcode? I feel like it shouldn't be hard to accomplish what I am trying to do but right now I am a bit lost. All help and advice is appreciated in advance! Thanks.
Whenever An API is Created The Author gives out a Documentation, about the usage of the API, Requests Parameters etc.
So, Go through the Documentation of Your Needed API,
Once the Requests Are made in-app, they Generally respond you in JSON, XML etc.
Using these Incoming data you can Populate data in your APP

Alternatives to String SDK (http://string.co). What to use instead

I came across tutorial http://www.raywenderlich.com/40870/augmented-reality-ios-tutorial-marker-tracking.
It uses String SDK, but that SDK is no longer active.
What are some alternatives ?
You will find a list of alternative AR SDKs along with a comparison of each here http://socialcompare.com/en/comparison/augmented-reality-sdks From what I can tell this list is pretty active and updated frequently.

google image search API for iOS app

I am creating an application in which I am trying to implement google image search using Google- image-search API. I refer this [google API link] (https://developers.google.com/image-search/v1/) . But I have one problem, on that page, mentioned (DEPRECATED). So can I use this API or I should use other API? Can anyone knows about this?
Thank you in advance
If APIs are deprecated they may work for now but not with full features and may go offline in near future.
If you go to https://developers.google.com/image-search/
It says its Deprecated and the number of requests are limited now.
Important: The Google Image Search API has been officially deprecated as of May 26, 2011.
It will continue to work as per our deprecation policy, but the number of requests you may make per day may be limited. We encourage you to upgrade to the Custom Search API, which now supports image search.
Here is the link to Custom Search API
https://developers.google.com/custom-search/
Hope it helps
Deprecated means it is older one also it means that there exist new version code for that. Check this out.
Example:
For example, in order to change our search engine from webresults-based to image-based, we can utilize the defaultToImageSearch attribute.

Unable to get more than 7 days of tweets using search.twitter.com

Is it possible to get more than 6-9 days old data(tweets) using "https://search.twitter.com/search.json?q=" I've tried multiple things mentioned at https://dev.twitter.com/docs/api/1/get/search and https://dev.twitter.com/docs/using-search but still not able to get more than 7 days old tweets.
I can see older tweets using the UI (twitter.com) but not through search.twitter.com query string which is my actual requirement.
Is it a known thing ? or am i missing something here? Please help !!
Nope, this is a limitation of the Twitter Search API. You can find it documented here:
You cannot use the Search API to find Tweets older than about a
week.
If you need Tweets older than a week Gnip offers historical Tweets all the way back to the very first Tweet from #jack.

Freebase Twitter Extension

I have tried the Freebase MQL twitter search extension shown here:
http://www.freebase.com/docs/mql_extensions/.base.topics.news.twitter_mentions
and there appears to be an error. There is no documentation for this extension (at least I didn't find it). Could anyone tell me if there is?
Does anyone know if any of these extensions are being supported at all?
Unfortunately this is broken right now and I don't have time to debug. You should not depend on these extensions working on top of mql going forward, but at the same time copying the code and trying it by yourself is very easy in Acre - just sign-in and clone this app:
http://www.freebase.com/appeditor#!path=//mqlnews.masouras.user.dev/twitter_mentions
Sorry for the unsatisfactory answer, let me know if you need help using Freebase or Acre, or join freebase-discuss#googlegroups.com and post questions to that community too.
