UserExperior supports os versions from iOS 10 and above!
You can install the UserExperior iOS SDK through CocoaPods (Install if you don't already have it) OR manually.
Starting 1st May 2021, UserExperior will no longer be supporting SWIFT 5.1 and below. For continuing to use UserExperior, upgrade to SWIFT 5.2 or above.

Via Cocoapods

Add to the pod file
For Swift 5.2 or above
```
pod 'UserExperior', '4.5.1'
```
For Swift 5.1 (The support for this version ends on 30th April 2021. Please update to the Swift 5.2 or above at the earliest.)
```
 pod 'UserExperior', '4.4.57'
```
For Swift 5.0 (The support for this version ends on 30th April 2021. Please update to the Swift 5.2 or above at the earliest)
```
pod 'UserExperior', '4.4.56'
```
From your terminal, type
After the repo update perform the below command to install the pod

And that's it!

The UserExperior.framework is automatically added as a target dependency, linked framework and embedded framework in a copy files build phase which is all you need to build on the simulator and a device.

Customizing UserExperior with Key APIs:

1. Set User Identifier & additional properties

a. Set User Identifier

UserExperior SDK by default takes the device id as a user identifier. However, you can specify any unique user identifier of your choice (eg. Email Id, Phone Number, etc.) as a custom user identifier. This identifier will show up in the UserExperior portal.

For Objective-C

    [UserExperior setUserIdentifier:@"pass-your-user-id-here"];

Eg.

    [UserExperior setUserIdentifier:@"[email protected]"];

For Swift

    UserExperior.setUserIdentifier("pass-your-user-id-here")

Eg.

    [UserExperior setUserIdentifier:"[email protected]"];

b. Send additional user information

For Objective-C

    [UserExperior setUserProperties:@{@"key1":@value1,
                                      @"key2":@value2, ...}];

Eg.

    [UserExperior setUserProperties:@{@"start_date":@"2020/11/25", // Date Format YYYY/MM/DD
                                      @"plan_subscribed":@trial];

Note: Please send the Date in "YYYY/MM/DD" format.

For Swift

    UserExperior.setUserProperties(["key1:"value1",
                                    "key2:"value2", ...])

Eg.

    UserExperior.setUserProperties(["start_date": "2020/12/31", // Date-Format: YYYY/MM/DD
                                     "plan_subscribed": "trial"])

Note: Please send the date property in "YYYY/MM/DD" format only, if any.

2. Log Event

UserExperior SDK lets you log user events based on the scenario. An event is the indication of Progress in the user's session. LogEvent() can be used as follows

a. Log event with the name

For Objective-C

    [UserExperior logEvent:@"YOUR_EVENT"];

Eg.

    [UserExperior logEvent:@"Onboarding successful!"];

For Swift

    UserExperior.logEvent("YOUR_EVENT")

Eg.

    UserExperior.logEvent("Onboarding successful!")

Note: Max eventName limit is 250 chars only.

b. Log event with name and properties

For Objective-C

    [UserExperior logEvent:@"YOUR_EVENT" properties:@{@"key1":@value1,
                                                      @"key2":@value2, ...}];

Eg.

    [UserExperior logEvent:@"Health Profile created" properties:@{@"age":@35,
                                                                  @"weight":@70.5}];

For Swift

    UserExperior.logEvent("YOUR_EVENT", properties:["key1:"value1",
                                                    "key2:"value2", ...])

Eg.

    UserExperior.logEvent("Health Profile created", properties:["age":35,
                                                                "weight":70.5])

Note:

Max eventName limit is 250 chars only.
Please send the date property in "YYYY/MM/DD" format only, if any.

3. Log Message

UserExperior SDK lets you log user messages based on the scenario. A message can be any app message shown to the user, any response OR error message OR toast message OR validation messages OR messages shown on dialog boxes, etc. which indicates a response to the user by the app. LogMessage() can be used as follows

a. Log message with the name

For Objective-C

    [UserExperior logMessage:@"YOUR_MESSAGE"];

Eg.

    [UserExperior logMessage:@"User Name or Password is incorrect"];

For Swift

    UserExperior.logMessage("YOUR_MESSAGE")

Eg.

    UserExperior.logMessage("User Name or Password is incorrect")

Note: Max messageName limit is 250 chars only.

b. Log message with name and properties

For Objective-C

    [UserExperior logMessage:@"YOUR_MESSAGE" properties:@{@"key1":@value1,
                                                          @"key2":@value2, ...}];

Eg.

    [UserExperior logMessage:@"Login Error" properties:@{@"status_code":@400,
                                                         @"response_message":@"invalid credentials"}];

For Swift

    UserExperior.logMessage("YOUR_MESSAGE", properties:["key1:"value1",
                                                        "key2:"value2", ...])

Eg.

    UserExperior.logMessage("Login Error", properties:["status_code:400,
                                                       "response_message":"invalid credentials"])

Note:

Max messageName limit is 250 chars only.
Please send the date property in "YYYY/MM/DD" format only, if any.

4. Mask Sensitive Views

UserExperior SDK by default masks all the UITextField and UITextView. If you wish to mask any other UI element in your app, you can mask it by:

    let label = UILabel()
    label.isSecureView = true

NOTE : Call isSecureView on any UI control object which is inherited from UIView

5. Identify Screens

UserExperior SDK automatically detects ViewController and defines them as screens. However, If you have used subviews added in the existing ViewController, then we recommend to use the startScreen() method. This API allows you to manually define subviews that will be missed during auto-capturing.

For Objective-C

    [UserExperior startScreen:@"SCREEN_NAME"];

Eg.

    [UserExperior startScreen:@"OTPViewController"];

For Swift

    UserExperior.startScreen("SCREEN_NAME")

Eg.

    UserExperior.startScreen("OTPViewController")

Note: Max screenName limit is 250 chars only

6. Track Response Time of Methods/ API Calls

UserExperior SDK allows you to track the load/ response time of the components in your app using a method called startTimer and stopTimer. You can call startTimer method at any event on the app from which you want to track the load/ response time and call a stopTimer method at the event completion. This method will calculate the complete response time.

For Objective-C

    [UserExperior startTimer:@"TIMER_NAME"];
    [UserExperior stopTimer:@"TIMER_NAME"];

For Swift

    UserExperior.startTimer("TIMER_NAME")
    UserExperior.stopTimer("TIMER_NAME")

Eg: Suppose, you have a TableView on your screen which gets loaded with data you receive from the server. You can call startTimer method when the view resumes to the user and call stopTimer method when data gets successfully shown in TableView. Now, you can know how much time it takes to load data after the screen is visible to the user. Similarly, you can use startTimer at any method call and endTimer on method response.

Example:

For Objective-C

While data loading starts in TableView:

    [UserExperior startTimer:@"Load Money API call"];

While data loaded completed in TableView :

    [UserExperior stopTimer:@"Load Money API call"];

For Swift
- While data loading starts in TableView:
```
    UserExperior.startTimer("Load Money API call")
```
- While data loaded completed in TableView :
```
    UserExperior.stopTimer("Load Money API call")
```
Note: Max timerName limit is 250 chars only

7. Control Recording

UserExperior SDK has the following APIs which can be used to control the recording. The APIs stopRecording, pauseRecording, resumeRecording are optional and they should be only called when you explicitly want to override the default behavior. Basically, you can use pauseRecording and resumeRecording to bypass any user flow which you don't want UserExperior to capture

Stop Recording: By default, the recording stops automatically once the app goes to the background. However, you can stop at the desired point by calling this API.

For Objective-C
```
    [UserExperior stopRecording];
```
For Swift
```
    UserExperior.stopRecording()
```

Pause Recording: This API pauses the recording, you can use resumeRecording API to resume.

For Objective-C
```
    [UserExperior pauseRecording];
```
For Swift
```
    UserExperior.pauseRecording()
```

Resume Recording: This API resumes the recording if it is paused.

For Objective-C
```
    [UserExperior resumeRecording];
```
For Swift
```
    UserExperior.resumeRecording()
```

8. Opt-In/Opt-Out

SDK by default opts-in users for session recording on app installs. If the user was disabled for session recording by using the optOut() method, you can use this method to enable recording at runtime.

For Objective-C
```
    [UserExperior optIn];
```
For Swift
```
    UserExperior.optIn()
```

This method returns the status of the user whether the user is currently opted-in or opted-out. The boolean value true indicates that the user is opted-out and false indicates that the user is opted-in.

For Objective-C
```
    [UserExperior getOptOutStatus];
```
For Swift
```
    UserExperior.getOptOutStatus()
```

What is NSAllowsArbitraryLoads?

A Boolean value used to disable App Transport Security for any domains not listed in the NSExceptionDomains dictionary. Listed domains use the settings specified for that domain. The default value of NO requires the default App Transport Security behavior for all connections.
