I am working on an app in which I need to show product related forums listing using vBulletine and TAPATALK API like the existing website does.
how could I show it in app?
I googled it alot but couldn't find any solution.
First of all you need to register at tapatalk.com.
Then you can "build your own" Tapatalk application here, but it's only a customisation of the Tapatalk app. It's a "all-inclusive" app that you can customize. So basically you can't make your "100% own app" using this feature.
If you need to make your "100% own app", then you can read the API specifications here : Tapatalk API
Afaik, there is no binary / library, so you have to implement the API by your self.

I am creating a demo project with xamarin and in that, I want to list down payment methods to pay. In that list, I want to add google pay. So that users can click on the google pay button and make payments using the google pay application. I want to know the implementation for iOS as I have found implementation for android. I have checked for the same but did not find anything fruitful. Can you please provide me the solution for that?
Google Pay is only available on Android and Web .
However it seems there are some ways to implement Google Pay in India.
Refer to official docs , link1 , link2 .
But We still recommend you to use Apple Pay, it is the best way .
I would like to have a link on my mobile website that once clicked from an iOS device, it will open up the Apple Wallet app.
I know there are some questions about this subject when it comes to an app that I built, but since this is not the case here, I'm not sure what is the right approach. I'm also aware of Brnach.io, but again, I think this solution is for an app I own, and I'm not sure how I can implement it for apps created by Apple (or other 3rd party developers) and specifically Apple Wallet (for example: how do I get the app ID?).
I know Universal Links might also be an option but I've read that I can't use an automated redirect with them (which I will need to do too)
Use this in your URL- shoebox://
To simply open the Wallet app you can use the wallet:// deeplnk, I'm also trying to figure out how to open specific passes.
i am in the process of making my app with firebase i am pretty much done with that except Firebase App Indexing. I am very exited with this feature because it could help me to increase my app get more traffic from the web but the problem is i really can't able to see how to implement this. According to Firebase Docs i just need to register my app with this pice of code
[[FIRAppIndexing sharedInstance] registerApp:your Apple ID from iTunes Connect];
I have done that but what should i do after that?
1.My app is firebase app that means i don't have any website to host my content except firebase realtime database. Does my content is available for crawlers? if not how can i make available to them?
2.If i can able to show my content in the google search results i don't wanna show all the content and i wanna show just some of my content for example i have a social app for sharing General Knowledge questions, i wanna show just the question like "What is the highest mountain" in the search results and if the user want to see the answer it should take them to my app how can i do that?
3.As per docs i came to know that i need to create univiersal links for my app content to direct users from google search but how shold i do that ? Lets say should i crate universal links when the user create question?? if so how can i do that ??
Thank you very much for the help.
This is not currently possible on iOS using Firebase App Indexing. The situation is slightly different on Android, but that is not applicable to your question.
On iOS, Firebase App Indexing is simply highlighting pages on your website in Google search results that have corresponding content inside your app. This is achieved by piggybacking on Apple's Universal Links standard, and there is no proactive 'crawling' going on inside your app. This means unless you have a corresponding web page for your app with 1:1 content parity, you can't really benefit from Firebase App Indexing on iOS as it comes out-of-the-box.
The best workaround is to generate little 'placeholder pages' for every piece of content in your app, which the sole purpose of opening your app (if it is installed) or redirecting to the App Store (if it is not installed). Ideally you'll need some sort of deferred deep linking system so that users still see the correct content after downloading. Fun fact: this is essentially how HotelTonight operates their entire business model. Unfortunately Firebase's implementation is not mature enough to support this full flow, and Google hasn't quite figured out how to rank app-only content properly yet in search results so you will probably need to pro-actively submit your placeholder pages to them.
Shameless plug: at Branch, we provide all of the above as a free service. You can read more about it here and take a look at the set up docs here.
I've been looking for a good iOS Facebook API/SDK Wrapper, can't find any.
I need to be able to (with a few lines of code, not the insanely needed by Facebook's API):
Login user
Logout user
Get user's likes
Invite Friend to app
Maybe post to user's wall (this has been causing problems to other apps so not sure will actually implement)
Get user's friends
Get user's basic info (e-mail, name, etc.)
Is there any wrapper simplifying the absurd vanilla API?
https://developers.facebook.com/docs/reference/apis/
This should help and it is Facebook's official api.
Here's the documentation: https://developers.facebook.com/docs/ios/
You might be able to use portions of ShareKit for this (be sure to abide by their license): https://github.com/ShareKit/ShareKit/tree/master/Classes/ShareKit/Sharers/Services/Facebook
This doesn't do everything you asked, but it's a (clean) starting point at least: https://github.com/mobitar/Zuckerkit
This does a bit more, but hasn't been updated in a year: https://github.com/sinnerschrader-mobile/S2M-Facebook-iOS
I found this lib: https://github.com/lucascorrea/SCFacebook
It seems to use a not that outdated version of the iOS SDK (3.18 vs. current 3.21), is available on cocoapods and seems to cover many of your required API features.
I haven't used the lib my self, but i am considering it next time i have to develop an iOS App which needs to connect to facebook.
I want to tap into the "Find My Friends" feature of iOS (5.x and/or prior) but am not locating any API to support this feature for developers. Does anyone know if/where the hooks for functionality can be found in the docs?
I'm not sure if you're asking for an API to directly tap into the Find My Friends functionality or if you're asking for something similar to it, but Find My Friends is an application, not an API, and Apple does not provide any API's or libraries to integrate one's app with Find My Friends. I'm sure you could implement your own Find My Friends type app with the Core Location framework.
You can check out the Location Awareness Programming Guide too to find out how to get the user's location, getting direction-related events, etc.
There is also a LinkedIn discussion titled "How to make an app simliar to Apple's Find My Friends" that contains some useful information in how you would go about implementing something similar to the Find My Friends functionality.
Hope this helps!
