Install KaraDesk in your iOS app

The KaraDesk iOS SDK brings the whole messenger into your app: conversations, your help center and live replies. It works on iOS 17 and later.

1. Create an iOS app in KaraDesk

Go to Settings → Apps, click New app and choose iOS. Keep your space ID and app ID handy, you'll need them in a moment.

2. Add the package

In Xcode, choose File → Add Package Dependencies…, paste this URL and add KaraDesk to your app target:

https://github.com/KaraDesk/karadesk-ios

3. Start KaraDesk

Initialize KaraDesk once when your app launches:

KaraDesk.initialize(spaceID: "YOUR_SPACE_ID", appID: "YOUR_APP_ID")

4. Open the messenger

KaraDesk.present()

That opens the messenger on its home screen, just like the launcher on your website.

Signing users in

When someone signs in to your app, let KaraDesk know who they are so their conversations follow them across devices:

try await KaraDesk.login(KaraDesk.User(id: user.id, email: user.email))

Call KaraDesk.logout() when they sign out. For everything else the SDK can do, see the README on GitHub.
