Using video chat apis for IOS without managing the serverside

Question

I am looking for some ready-to-go APIs provided by platforms to deal with video chatting etc. There are some examples like Twilio or OpenTok but you have to create the server side by yourself.

Are there any other examples where I don't have to deal with the server?

Answer 1

I recommend to try ConnectyCube, they have a Swift code sample for video calling

You do not need to bother with any server-side stuff, can concentrate only on client-side app development
