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

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It uses String SDK, but that SDK is no longer active.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.

Keywords Planner in Google Ads API

I am trying to use Keywords Planner programmatically, through its API.I came across Generating Targeting Ideas, which pretty much summarizes the use. When I visit Get Started, it states
Try the new Google Ads API—which has the latest Google Ads features. The AdWords API is in maintenance mode and not being actively developed.
I visit Google Ads API, where I cannot find anything related to the Keyword Planner.
Has someone any idea if the planner is available through the new API, or do I have to use the old one?
Thanks,
Alexios
I'm currently working on converting an old Adwords cron job to the new Ads API. While I'm not sure if this is exactly what you're looking for, the old TargetingIdeaService has been replaced with a new KeywordPlanIdeaService (see https://developers.google.com/google-ads/api/docs/migration/services).
You can find examples for KeywordPlanIdeaService here:
https://developers.google.com/google-ads/api/docs/samples/generate-keyword-ideas
Pay careful attention to how the code formats each selector field and using a helper class to format language and geotargeting codes. It's not the most intuitive way of passing paramters.

Alternate MKLocalSearchCompleter in iOS 9.0 location search

I found MKLocalSearchCompleter is only available in iOS 9.3+, unfortunately my application needs to support up to 9.0+. I want to make a auto complete suggestions for location search in Swift 4.0. What are the alternatives of MKLocalSearchCompleter?
Is there any other better way to show auto suggested locations?
What have been tried:
I have used CLGeocoder, geocodeAddressString() but its not possible to use for auto completion search because changes in the search string is frequent so the api calls as well, which is not allowed by the API. What am I missing?

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.

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.

Which one is better for social networking integration in iOS development?

I have searched on net for social networking integration in iOS projects (For example: Facebook, Twitter, etc)
I found there are also SDKs available for particulars and some OpenSource projects/frameworks are also available for the same which combines all into one like (ShareKit).
What is the difference in those two? Which one is better to use? Is there any problem to upload an app on AppStore which is using ShareKit framework/code?
Thanks in advance.

If you are using ARC in your project ShareKit is a big waste of time.
Twitter can be added very easily using the Twitter framework and TWTweetComposeViewController. Not sure about any others.

If you are only looking to use Twitter and Facebook, then it is simple enough to just use their API and implement it in your code.
If you are new to development or want to use more (Delicious, Tumblr, Read It Later, Bit.ly, Mail), then I would highly recommend using ShareKit. It allows for sharing of text, URLs and even images. It takes less than an hour to setup even when using ARC and comes with a sample app to play around with. It is also easy to update when more features are added or the API of one the sites changes.
