This tutorial enables you to quickly get started in your development efforts to create an iOS app with real-time video calls, voice calls, and interactive broadcasting.
With this sample app you can:
- Start and end audio/visual communication between two users.
- Join a communication channel.
- Mute and unmute audio.
- Enable and disable video.
- Switch between the front and rear cameras.
After users upgrade their iOS devices to iOS 14.0, and use an app that integrates the Agora RTC SDK for iOS for the first time, users see a prompt for finding local network devices. The following picture shows the pop-up prompt:
- Xcode 10.0+
- Physical iOS device (iPhone or iPad)
- iOS simulator is NOT supported
This section shows you how to prepare, build, and run the sample application.
To build and run the sample application, get an App Id:
-
Create a developer account at agora.io. Once you finish the signup process, you will be redirected to the Dashboard.
-
Navigate in the Dashboard tree on the left to Projects > Project List.
-
Save the App Id from the Dashboard for later use.
-
Generate a temp Access Token (valid for 24 hours) from dashboard page with given channel name, save for later use.
-
Open
Agora iOS Tutorial.xcodeproj
and edit theAppID.swift
file. In theagoraKit
declaration, update<#Your App Id#>
with your App Id, and assign the token variable with the temp Access Token generated from dashboard.let AppID: String = <#Your App Id#> // assign Token to nil if you have not enabled app certificate let Token: String? = <#Temp Token#>
To ensure communication security, Agora uses tokens (dynamic keys) to authenticate users joining a channel.
Temporary tokens are for demonstration and testing purposes only and remain valid for 24 hours. In a production environment, you need to deploy your own server for generating tokens. See [Generate a Token](https://docs.agora.io/en/Interactive Broadcast/token_server)for details.
-
Download the Agora Video SDK. Unzip the downloaded SDK package and copy the following files from the SDK
libs
folder into the sample applicationAgora iOS Tutorial
folder.AograRtcEngineKit.framework
AgoraRtcCryptoLoader.framework
-
Connect your iPhone or iPad device and run the project. Ensure a valid provisioning profile is applied or your project will not run.
