Spending the evening exploring if it’s possible to build a native iOS signer app on Nostr.
Discussion
sorely needed
Please 🙏
Ahh you said iOS sorry nvm 😛
No worries. I’m planning to reuse the same nostrsigner URL scheme that Android supports in NIP-55. If all goes to plan, web clients won’t need to differentiate between Android or iOS. They’ll just have a platform-agnostic “Sign in with Signer app” button.
I was thinking of the same thing based on some recent work I did with AppIntents. It probably wouldn't work with the same URL scheme though.
Nostr signer *and* in-person invoice generator? Maybe that's too many things for one app...
This is mind blowing. I think you have something here. Haven’t studied App Intents enough, but it feels like there should be a way to trigger an action in the signer app from an arbitrary Nostr iOS native client. Can you elaborate on what your video is doing behind the scenes?
Yeah, IIRC if you add the right entitlement to your app you can call intents on other apps, just like shortcuts does. The tread should explain what's going on, but everything is also in the AlbyGo PR. I don't personally want to maintain an app... I just want the functionality to be out there.
Have you seen Nowser? Think it’s only available on TestFlight at the moment
I have not. Sounds promising!
