iMessage apps: from stickers to financial extensions in 30 minutes
Despite the fact that iMessage Apps are pretty new for iOS ecosystem, everyone heard about stickers which are really helpful for promoting free apps. However, this tool is way more powerful and during this talk I will show how to develop really complex iMessage Apps.
What does this talk cover?
What iMessage apps could do beyond sticker packs when iOS 10 introduced them - including how a working financial extension comes together in about half an hour.
What kinds of iMessage apps does it show?
Real ones, not just sticker packs: Square Cash, Airbnb, JibJab, and Scanbot - and where the line sits between a sticker pack and a full app extension.
Does it cover security and monetisation?
Yes - how an iMessage extension handles security, the backward-compatibility story across iPhone and iPad on iOS 10, and the ways the format can be turned into revenue.
Where can I watch it?
