• Accordingly to the new EU GDPR terms, I've updated the 'tou.html' file and Documentation.
IMPORTANT: This means that if a User asks for his/her Account deletion, you must do it within 24 hours, as the GDPR's "Right to be forgotten" Article states (LINK: https://gdpr-info.eu/art-17-gdpr/)

• Updated to recommended settings with Xcode 9.3
• Updated the 3 Facebook SDKs (because of Swift 4.1 release):
FBSDKCoreKit.framework
FBSDKLoginKit.framework
FBSDKShareKit.framework

• Edited the Location Privacy Usage keys into Info.plist.
So right-click on Info.plist in Xcode, Open As -> Source code, and replace the existing <key>NSLocation... rows with this code:
<key>NSLocationAlwaysAndWhenInUseUsageDescription</key>
<string>This app needs to access your current location to send heys!</string>
<key>NSLocationWhenInUseUsageDescription</key>
<string>This app needs to access your current location to send heys!</string>
<key>NSLocationAlwaysUsageDescription</key>
<string>This app needs to access your current location to send heys!</string>
<key>NSLocationUsageDescription</key>
<string>This app needs to access your current location to send heys!</string>
In this way, the Location permission alert will show up on devices with iOS versions older than iOS 11
Hey! is a Universal App Template where you can send short messages like hey! to all those friends who are registered in the app with just a tap. It’s that simple, the simplest communication app ever.
You can search for friends by name in the Search controller, add them to your Friends list and send them a hey!, attach a picture to it or your current location, or simple text of the selected hey!. They will receive a Push Notification and can easily reply to your “hey!” by sending it back.
Users are able to block/unblock other users, remove them from their list and make a group of friends to send heys! all at once, again, with just a tap!
Check the video preview to see it in action.
Since its backend is by Parse Server, you don’t have to buy any domain/hosting, there are NO PHP files to upload to a web server so you’ll save some money for server side.
Hey! is a native XCode project, Swift language, Storyboard, Universal, super easy to customize, backend with Parse SDK hosted on https://back4app.com

What about free support for this template?
I can offer free support for bugs encountered in the original code.
Instead, if you’ve edited the code and messed something up with it, I may apply some fee to fix it either via TeamViewer or by checking your app project files directly on my computer.
Should I use the latest version of Xcode to edit this template?
Yes, I always update my apps to the latest version of the IDE.
