Thinking about two different ways of supporting frostr signer on iOS.

One is to just copy primal and use the audio player for keeping background signer online, but who knows if I could get the app approved - also I would hate to copycat so quick and bandwagon onto this workaround, but hey if it works well??

The other way is doing push notifications; which I think I found a way to do very privately where no events are stored and we will have no idea whose device tokens are being held. However that still requires storing device tokens and also running a server which I really wanna avoid doing.... There are definitely more ways around this. There’s a lot that is technically possible, but with Apple, you have the additional question of will they even allow you to release this?? Such an interesting problem, there is no right answer!

Shouldn't y'all get on zapstore first?

In our experience push notifications won’t help beyond just letting the user know that they should open the app to resume their remote session. Don’t worry at all about being a “quick copycat”. We’d love to see more signers, which is why we shared the playbook.

Thanks for sharing your dev process, lots of good stuff here! Audio doesn't seem to work to keep a PWA running, we don't have the app stores to worry about but the websocket connection gets cut as soon as the app goes off screen. We are considering push notifications but would love to avoid that ...
