sync LC applications

[paolo mazza via use-livecode]

Hi all,
what’s the best way to sync several  LC applications installed on many 
different devices?
For example, consider having 100 smartphones connected to internet running the 
same LC application, how can I send a signal/command so that an image shows up  
at the same time in every smatphone?
AFAIK a solution is to set up a text file in a web server and let the app 
installed in each device to check (every second)  if any change occour , but 
this solution is not efficient.
Any idea?
Best regards,
Paolo Mazza

Hi Mike,
i am interested in your solution.

Can you share a sample or  any kind of documentation of this technique ?

Can I send a notification  to several devices (running the app on the phone) at 
the same time?

Thanks,

Paolo

Hi all,
I went through this tutorial about push notifications

http://lessons.livecode.com/m/4069/l/59312-how-do-i-use-push-notifications-with-android
 


According to some comments, this technique is is out of date now, because  C2DM 
has been officially deprecated as of June 26, 2012.


How can we proceed now?


All the best

Paolo

How to IMPORT CONTACTS and GPS location

[paolo mazza via use-livecode]

Dear LiveCoders,
I have not been using livecode for a while and do not know anymore
what are the features of Livecode today.
I would like to know
- if LiveCode can IMPORT THE CONTACTS from the Iphone and Android systems
- if it is possible to send an address to Google and get the GPS
location from a LiveCode app.
Best regards,
Paolo Mazza
