- redeem errors are typed (CEBadgeRedeemError) instead of matched by text in the apps - service timeout (A_SERVICE) decodes in the apps and offers Retry via the existing retry alert - unexpected redeem errors show the error itself instead of a generic message - service error codes are a typed enum in the apps (BadgeServiceErrorCode) - CRBadgeRedeemed returns badge state, so the apps skip a second round-trip after redeem - setBadgeAlertAcked is scoped to user_id - badgeChanged updates non-active profiles, so other profiles' badges don't go stale - pitch banner is not shown to a profile that already has a badge - one badgeTypeName per platform, used by the badge screen and the badge info alert - BadgeAlertKind and BadgeAlertPrice decode via standard JSON, no custom decoders - dead "Support ended" title branch removed from Your Badge view - kotlin: users from badge responses carry remoteHostId - kotlin: redeem code field keeps the IME's cursor and composition state - kotlin: "Get your code" shown in all flavours - kotlin: "Don't show again" -> "Dismiss", matching iOS - kotlin: parseBadgeCode moved next to its FFI in platform/Core.kt - kotlin: BadgesView no longer cross-fades on badge state updates - kotlin: section title not uppercased - ios: redeem code field parses once per change - ios: A_SERVICE rejected reason is not decoded - CLI: "cannot redeem badge code: ..." with the source of the error - comments clarified
SimpleX Chat iOS -- Specification Overview
Technical specification suite for the SimpleX Chat iOS application. Each document provides bidirectional links to product documentation and source code.
Executive Summary
The SimpleX Chat iOS app is a native SwiftUI frontend that communicates with a Haskell core library via C FFI. All chat logic, encryption, protocol handling, and database operations happen in the Haskell core (chat_ctrl). The iOS layer handles UI rendering, system integration (CallKit, Push Notifications, Background Tasks), local preferences, and theming. The app shares its database with a Notification Service Extension (NSE) for decrypting push payloads while the main app is inactive.
