Someone assigned me a project in iOS to develop a torrent client app but the problem is that according to my knowledge there are no torrent clients available right now.
So the question is that is it possible to build such an app? I am not asking about publishing my app on app store I just want to build it (it's a university project)
It is possible, see popcorn time or open source implementations on github
But, as you probably know, Apple is likely not to publish such apps in the App Store due to questionable legal aspect.

As the title suggest I need to be able to showcase a react native app continuously during development every other day with a client which is not technical orientated. The alternativs I see is,
* Sharing a git/github repo for them to download and run through Xcode
which is not a possibility.
*Screen record while i run the simulation on my computer and share it
with the client
Both of these options seems subpar and not optimal.
How do I do this in a better way?
I am sorry if this seems like an open ended question and if you have suggestions on how to better formulate this question please provide it.
You can upload the binary to TestFlight, which allows your client to download and use the app instantly.
You can also consider over-the-air update systems like Expo or CodePush which allows you to deliver Javascript-only updates automatically to your clients when they open the app (just like a web app).
We have developed Cordova Hybrid App using Ionic framework and will deliver this app through Apple and google's store.
I have read Apple Policy document that insist "We Should not dynamically update App without through Apple store".
I would like to load two JS files from my server. It will never change App purpose and look and feel.
I am bit more confused about Apple policy document . Any assistance in this topics are much more appreciated.
Thanks

Just give it a try. The worst thing that could happen is that you wait for a week, get rejected and have to adapt your app and resubmit it...
I never had a problem with external JS files from CDNs, but that doesn't have to mean anything for your case.
That said, why not simply include the files in your app? Why should Apple trust you not changing the app?
We are working on a commercial VOIP application based on SIP. We have found PJSIP/Siphon and able to compile for iOS 7. And it's working fine for us. So, our doubt is if we can use this in our app and deploy the app to app store.
Thanks.
It depends.
If you have an open-source product you can use it in the AppStore.
If you do not share your source code you must buy a license from Teluu before you launch it in the AppStore.
If you use Siphon, you will need to look at their license terms as well before pushing it to the AppStore.
Otherwise they can sue you and get your app kicked out of the stores and it can become a very expensive process for you.
I am new to iOS development. I have to build a chat application and I found this website, QuickBlox.com, which provide code and back-end for helping build applications on various platforms.
I had a doubt that I I take help from this website, will the applications build by me be my applications completely. As my concern is that if I build an application it should be completely my application and any other website or company's name should not be visible to the user's when it finally reaches them. If anyone knows about QuickBlox.com please clarify my doubt.
The app is completely yours, you can publish under yor own name and use the business model you want.
You can check these case studies, donwload the apps and check it by yourself

However, if you want to publish remember to have your own AppStore licences for Apple AppStore and Google Play.
Hope it helps,
I have never developed for iPhone, but I have developed an HTML5 web application.
I would like to submit to the Apple store a free app whose job would be to just open up the HTML5 webapp in the mobile browser.
Do you think it will be likely that such an app can be accepted? Can you please provide links or evidence?
Is it possible to ask this question to the Apple team so that I am not going to waste $99? If so, how?
If your app has native web views pulling internal HTML5 information, you might be able to sneak it by some of the app reviewers, but a good portion will say that there is not enough native Apple code in the app. They are sticklers for that.
I have, on a few occasions, gotten away with adding push notification, saying it HAS to be an app, and can't rely on users going to the website since they need push (even though I never intended on pushing anything out), but Apple has caught on to this.
Ultimately, you need to use Apple code in xCode, and you need to use a lot of it.
