When i terminate app MUC group chat members are getting removed

Question

When i terminate app MUC group chat members are getting removed, i have to join them again while coming back to app from bookmarks? We do not want to rejoin again and again. Can someone please suggest way how to avoid rejoining.

In Android smack there is provision for auto-rejoin.

Even from Openfire back end we have managed code to do not remove.

So Android is working fine, iOS is removing users.

Please do suggest.

Instead of rejoining the room every time, do set the presence of the group when the user relaunches the app.

Set presence with below code function iterate through all your groups name and set presence:

    for group in chatListModel ?? []{            
            if(group.opponent_type == "2"){
                print("Group Name: \(group.opponent_uuid ?? "")")                
XMPPGlobal.sharedIntanceXMPP.xmppController.updatePresence(roomJID: XMPPJID(string: "\(group.opponent_uuid ?? "")@\(groupServerName)"))
            }
        }

Define below function in your XMPPController class:

func updatePresence(roomJID : XMPPJID?) {
                        
        let presence = XMPPPresence(type: "presence")
        presence.addAttribute(withName: "from", stringValue: self.xmppStream.myJID?.user ?? "")
        presence.addAttribute(withName: "to", stringValue: "\(roomJID?.full ?? "")/\(self.xmppStream.myJID?.user ?? "")")
        
        let element = DDXMLElement.init(name: "x", xmlns: XMPPMUCNamespace)
        presence.addChild(element)
        self.xmppStream.send(presence)
        
    }

Hope it will works for you.
