I want to know how many android and ios application I can connect with Firebase(mainly for cloud firestore) OR mongodb, and what does it mean by "visible apps" in the firebase.
the part I marked in red and what does it matter if an app is visible or not.
The answer to this question is unlimited I guess, as much as I found out there is no limit to the number of app that can be connected to the firebase and max apps is nothing but app visible on the console.

I want to find iPhone devices/device tokens within a specific radius from particular location.
For example : Within a 25 K.M. of radius from Sydney,i want to get iPhone devices tokens.
I am working on ASP.NET MVC2 for this.
Let me know,if is there any API for that?
Thanks,
You are only able to get details for devices that you 'know' about. Your app will need to log unique IDs for each device, and your app will need to log known locations for devices. It's then up to you to look up, from your central database, the details of the devices within a certain distance. iPhones can update significant location changes when running in the background but it's up to you to track devices and accept the limitations that that data may not always be correct. eg. If a user falls outside connectivity then you will still have an old location logged for that user.
I'm not aware of a single API that offers this services, if you're coding it then in your app you will need to register devices identifiers and location information to a central server. You will also need to create the lookup to query your data to find devices within a location. I am guessing that you might want to send push notifications, in which case your app will also need to register for notification services too.
There is no way for you to discover devices that don't have your app running and you also do not know who the owner is.
I am not sure why, but every time I run this specific app on a iOS device a red stamp appear with the number 5. Can someone tell me why this is happening? This doesn't happened on the simulator.
This is used to communicate important information to the user of said app. This is set in your application by supplying an NSInteger to applicationIconBadgeNumber. For instance, Apple's App Store uses the overlay to inform a user that an update is available for X number of his/her app's. The Mail App uses it to inform the user that they have unread messages. Some applications add an applicationIconBadgeNumber to inform the user that they have received a Push Message.
Read more about it from Apple Developer Doc's
You can also turn this off for the application if you find it bothersome. Follow instructions in this Related Question.
Can you send your currently location through the iPhone SDK to another iPhone and have them open up your location in Google Maps?
The only way I can think of is through text message, but I'm not even sure that would work.
Any ideas?
It'd be easy to set up a webserver to relay the message.
User 1's iPhone sends the phone's location to the server, which stores it in a database. User 2's iPhone periodically polls the server for the latest location of User 1 and displays it on screen.
You'd have to work out a good system of limiting which users can access whose data and so on, but otherwise it's a pretty straightforward project.
Everytime I get a call my old wallpaper shows even though I have a new one. I'm trying to find it on my iOS but I cannot seem to figure out where. So I'm trying to track down what folders gets backed up when i backup my iPhone since I have restored it and it's still there.
(I'm using a jailbroken device)
I know this isn't the actual folder names and etc but it will give you an idea what it's backing up though. Good Luck.

Voicemail password, but is used for
validation when connecting. This is
only restored to a phone with the
same phone number on the SIM card.)

Paired Bluetooth devices (which can
only be used if restored to the same
phone that created the backup)
Keychain (this includes email account
passwords, Wi-Fi passwords, and
passwords you enter into websites and
some other applications. The keychain
can only be restored from backup to
the same iPhone or iPod touch. If you
are restoring to a new device, you

New with iOS 3.1: Videos in the Camera Roll that are 2 GB or larger are not backed up (iOS 4 and later will back up videos 2 GB and larger)
All user documents and settings get backed up, Application settings as well as system settings.
Applications each have a Documents folder that user data can be saved to, so thats pretty much what gets backed up for applications, including app preferences.
These are the Wallpaper locations:
/private/var/mobile/Library/SpringBoard/HomeBackground.jpg
/private/var/mobile/Library/SpringBoard/HomeBackgroundPortrait.jpg
/private/var/mobile/Library/SpringBoard/LockBackground.jpg
/private/var/mobile/Library/SpringBoard/LockBackgroundPortrait.jpg
I have manually managed to find out what gets backed up and managed to solve the problem :)
I downloaded the trial of iphone packup extractor http://www.iphonebackupextractor.com/ and found what I was looking for.
Also it seems like I just had to change the lockscreen in the iPhone since the file called LockScreen.jpg was the picture I was looking for but since I had another lockscreen using winterboard I didnt think of this.
Good luck to anyone else who has problems similar to this.
I am new to iphone stuff. After deploying an application in iTunes is there a way to find out the number of iphone/ipod touch which has installed / uninstalled this application ?
During uninstall the user is asked to rate the application, how to get that information with a developer license credentials ?
Apple tells you the number of sales (and the number of upgrades) in iTunes Connect. What they don't tell you is how many people have uninstalled your application or, more importantly, how many people are still using it n days after installing it.
You may be able to get this information (and more) using one of the third party analytic tools such as Flurry, although Apple has recently started to object to service like them. Another option would be to gather the same kind of information on your own server.
It would be really nice if Apple provided better information but, unfortunately, they don't at the moment.
All this data is provided through Apples iTunes connect site
https://itunesconnect.apple.com
Additionally you could subscribe to one of the support sites like
http://www.appfigures.com
which will give you nice graphs on sales etc
You should also take a look at Flurry Analytic's. Not only will it tell you how many unique devices it has been installed on, but you can add events as well. So lets say your app has a "Featured Listings" area or something like that. Flurry will log how many times people enter into the "Featured" area. It will help track conversion rates...
Also shows you the navigation path the user took. So they click on , "search", then they click on "homes", then they clicked on "featured"... yada yada yada... it provides excellent information.
If your app uses Core Location you can even see a dot on a map as to where the user was when they did all of this.

The information provided by iTunes Connect is the number of downloads of your app. The ratings and reviews are actually not provided via iTunes Connect, but you can find it indirectly on the app store.
There are some services that aggregate all this information for you. A new one is www.appannie.com which shows you both downloads and ratings.
For number of installed Apple just updated https://itunesconnect.apple.com site you can adjust the date range in the middle of screen (using the slider) or by adjusting the dates on top left corner after navigating to sale and trends screen to see how many downloads you have had.
