ios share data between users


What is the best way to share data between users of the same app - like a shared list of items that only 2 specific users can see and edit. My question is about the data transfer part - is there any service or framework I can use? I would like to avoid creating the server part myself.

Thank you!


Solution

  • If you don't want to deal with your own server side implementation then you could use one of the PAS (platform as a service) providers like StackMob, Parse or Azure. They all offer persistent storage via a very simple iOS API. If your needs are simple, you can probably use StackMob for free. Something like Azure or Amazon will give you a lot more features and flexibility, but will cost money after the initial trial is over.
