Rocket.Chat.Cordova

Rocket.Chat Cross-Platform Mobile Application via Cordova

DEPRECATED

As of March (3/18) this application has been deprecated and is no longer maintained.

Please see our native mobile apps:

Both apps can be found in their respective app stores by searching for: Rocket.Chat

Cordova app will not be able to connect to Rocket.Chat server 0.72.0 and higher as support has been removed.

Troubleshooting

Some have had issues with a couple of dependencies not being installed by npm. Running: npm install ticons underscore may be necessary.

I can't connect to my server instance

If you are running your server using the command meteor you should define the URL where the mobile application will try to connect meteor --mobile-server http://192.168.1.10:3000, replace http://192.168.1.10:3000 by your IP or domain.

This is necessary because the mobile application download all files to run locally and then start the connection with your server, as you are running as develop mode this is necessary.
