Do we still need to use a native module to interact with twilio ip messaging in hybrid apps? I'd like to use it in a ionic app (chat with push etc.), but pure JS would be preferred.. All I could find about this was this thread Twilio on cross platform mobile tools (Ionic, React-Native) but I was wondering if it is still needed to add native modules...
Twilio developer evangelist here.
Twilio IP Messaging has a JavaScript library which you could use as part of your Ionic application.
The only thing that would miss would be push notifications, which are built into the iOS and Android SDKs. You could implement your own notifications (check out Twilio Notify for an easy way to do that) but you would have to keep track of the online status of your users yourself and use the IP Messaging webhooks to capture messages and notify your users yourself.
Let me know if that helps at all.

I am new to Flurry analytics, and from the looks of the docs they have for both iOS and Android, there is a support for registering purchase events with a dedicated method on each platform separately. But with flutter plugin they have, this option is not supported, and therefore I am not able to register purchases at all on their dashboard. Is there a way of "manually" sending this iap event, so the dashboard can still consume it?
I think you are asking if this data can be sent directly to the Flurry servers, without being sent from the SDK. If so, this is unfortunately not possible.
Google has discontinued Near By API by the end of 2018. Android OS had built in support for Near by API and hence without a custom APP , the device was able to capture the beacon based push notifications.My requirement is as follows:
With Digital loyalty pass on Google wallet, when the end customer enters the vicinity of a beacon , the device should receive offers as push notification. There is no custom app developed . With out a custom app , how to receive the push notifications with just the Digital loyalty pass on google wallet? . Please help with a solution.

Unfortunately after Google Nearby was discontinued, there is no longer a solution to send notifications to a user on BLE detection without a third party app installed to do so.
The only workaround is to develop a third party app to do the detecting and notifying. Keep in mind that the way Google implemented this was with the Google Play Services app, so an app was still required to send the notifications. (It was just an app that was installed by default on most phones sold outside of mainland China.). And it didn't even work unless a user had opted in, something that few ever did.
Google's Nearby discontinuation basically says Google is no longer willing to use their app to send notifications for you. So you must use your own app or the app of a different partner.
There are other third party apps that track a user's location and send notifications -- such apps are often popular "free" games. But while the install base of these apps can be in the hundreds of millions they do not approach the install base of Google Play Services. These apps can also be a bit "shady" about their practices, and to my knowledge do not have a public policy about how you can get them to send notifications for you or let users opt-in or opt-out.
I am working for a non profit organisation and Our Project needs an android app (to develop a brief intervention that uses mobile text/voice messaging to address
problematic drinking among adolescents.) This app should woks as a bidirectional and better if it collaborate with watsapp. so that we will get responses quickly via watsapp and automatically our apps should tell questions base on
his/her answer. Also it should store conversation data into the database.
You can start from the friendly chat app based on Firebase. Take a look here https://codelabs.developers.google.com/codelabs/firebase-android/#0 . For the "auto reply" functionality you will have to write your own cloud function. Read some docs about that
I would like to integrate my existing ionic ios app with the new firebase notification service. But i could not find any documentation about registering a device token manually with the rest api or web api.
Am i missing any new feature? Or is this not possible with the current libraries?
Firebase Notifications at launch just supports Android and iOS.
For now, you can implement FCM directly for the web, see the documentation for FCM, which will allow pushing messages via the API.
I am trying to evaluate the ways in which I could implement push notification for a salesforce iPhone app that I am going to create. Options I am going to explore are Urban Airship or Salesforce's Streaming API. Does anyone have any recommendation (Best solutions available) or does anyone know of any other ways. Also please guide me on the steps to achieve push notification for an app that gets data from salesforce.com using salesforce.com's rest API.
Starting with the Spring 14 release, Salesforce supports Apple ( APNS ) and Google ( GCM ) mobile push notifications via the Connected Apps framework. Please check the Mobile Push Notifications Tip Sheet on Developer Force for more information: http://www2.developerforce.com/en/mobile/resources
