You need BIS or BES from your service provider in order to activate push-email. Once activated, you can receive e-mail via Wi-Fi but you'll still need the BIS/BES subscription.
Alternatives are Shangmail and LogicMail

How to present guest Wi-Fi "terms & conditions" confirmation dialog programmatically?

It is typical setup in bars / restaurants / airports where password-free Wi-Fi is available but requires accepting terms & conditions.
First time customer manually connects to Wi-Fi network which brings confirmation dialog and he accepts it. As result internet connection is alive, no problem here.
However next time customer visits the same place iOS device automatically connects to the known Wi-Fi and shows active Wi-Fi connection icon in status bar. But internet connection isn't available until customer accepts terms & conditions again. To do that customer has to either go to iOS settings or open Safari which brings confirmation dialog automatically.
Our app is designed for bars. Based on above iOS behavior regular customer sees that it has Wi-Fi connection in iPhone status bar, yet our app says "No internet connection". Combined this is very confusing UX.
Question: Is there programatic way to bring Wi-Fi confirmation dialog the same way as Safari does?
iOS should do this automatically if your captive portal is configured correctly.
When it connects to a WiFi network, iOS checks to see if http://captive.apple.com returns "success". If it does then it assumes that it has Internet access. If it returns any other content then it assumes that there is a captive portal and it will open the captive portal authentication screen.
This behaviour is independent of whether the user has connected to that hotspot previously.
Where there can be an issue is when the hotspot de-authenticates the user after some time, as iOS does not continually re-try http://captive.apple.com once it has connected successfully.
Your app can periodically check that http://captive.apple.com returns the correct response and open an SFSafariViewController if it doesn't

send mail from another app with vmware boxer app

we have iphones managed by VMWare airwatch and we use vmware boxer app for emails, contacts etc.
Now, we are developing another app which should be distributed by our own app cataloge and we want to send mails from that new app by using the already configured boxer mail client.
My question is, is that possible? I know that i have to check email availability in my app with canSendMail() but does ios recognize that the mail client is not the native Mail app rather the VmWare Boxer app.
if i click on a email link in the browser in my iphone, it starts the native mail client where i have to setup a mail account and that's what i exactly not want^^
Thank you very much for your help :)
regards
Chris
I've found the URL Scheme in the Admin Guide: I hope it's helpful for anyone else too:

How does iphone Notifications on Websites works? Is need to install Application?

I have problem with understand how "Push Notifications on Websites" works on Iphone, Ipad, etc.
Default Browser Notifications don't work on mobile, but this: https://developer.apple.com/library/content/documentation/NetworkingInternet/Conceptual/NotificationProgrammingGuideForWebsites/Introduction/Introduction.html
should be work fine!
There is good documentation how to install it, but how it works on user?
As i see, it`s 2 variants:
1) Modal Window to allow using notifications in browser like it`s working with default JS Notifications.
or:
2) Link to install application in AppStore. So, user install to device application.
So, if user download application, does this application add to desktop on device as other applications? What happing when user click on icon? Does click on application on desktop activate safari and open web-site? Or is it hidden application without icons on desktop?
I try to find some sites to check examples how it will work with my iphone, but i didnt find any sites. All popular sites say: "download application and active notifications THERE and use application for website".
So, i don't need special application for my site, adaptive design is awesome for me, but i want to use notifications on iphone!
Please, help me :) Thank you!
As you noticed the document states that this feature is available on OSX not on iPad, iPhone.
We see this notifications when we open a website on Safari. For instance,
As soon as we click the allow button, our Macbook communicates with Apple Push Notification Service to establish a persistent IP connection (along with a token exchange). When the website servers send notifications to the Apple Push Notification Service it forwards that notification to our Macbook/iMac.

Internet connection for third party app in blackberry

Is there any specific settings for third party app using internet connection because when i try lo login,app need network connection and it ask for APN.
I gave APN as "blackberry.net" as given by vodafone but it gives me "tunnel failure error" or "DNS error"
What settings are required so that third party apps can use internet
This is not a programming question.
If you are trying to use a third party app, and you are not able to (tunnel failure) set the apn in your phone in the following way.
Some third-party applications might require a direct TCP or HTTP connection to the Internet. For example, a stock price application might require a connection to the Internet to retrieve the latest stock prices. The TCP settings might be required for the third-party application to access the Internet.
Note: Contact your wireless service provider to obtain the Access Point Name (APN), user name, and password.
On the Home screen of the BlackBerry smartphone, click Options.
Note: Depending on the theme running on your BlackBerry smartphone, you may need to click Settings, then Options.
Complete one of the following:
For BlackBerry® Device Software version 4.1 or later, click Advanced Options > TCP/IP
For BlackBerry Device Software version 4.0 or earlier, click TCP/IP.
Enter the APN, user name, and password obtained from your wireless service provider.
Press the Menu key and select Save.
This information is from here
Try using "WWW" as access point for Vodafone. if still not proper check out for connection types. or just add ";deviceside=true" at the end of your url.
