AnyPhone

An example iOS (Swift) app for phone-based user accounts with Twilio + Parse

---

Requirements

• Parse account (Sign up at Parse.com)
• Twilio account & phone number (Sign up at Twilio.com)

Getting Started

• Create a new Parse App, and set up a Cloud Code folder for the project.
• Copy the contents of the cloud/ folder from this repository into the cloud/ folder in your Cloud Code folder.
• Edit main.js to include your Twilio Account Sid, Auth Token, and phone number. Generate some random string to use as the password token.
• Pull all required iOS dependencies from Cocoapods by running pod install under AnyPhone folder.
• Open the AnyPhone/AnyPhone.xcworkspace, and put your Parse Application Id and Client Key in AppDelegate.swift.
• Deploy your Cloud Code by running parse deploy from the root of your Cloud Code folder.

Setting Up AnyPhone Web

• Enable Hosting on your Parse App by going to the Settings > Hosting page. Add a subdomain name (ex. "anyphonetest123") that will allow you to access AnyPhone for Web.
• Delete 'index.html' from the generated Cloud Code folder to allow rendering of our 'index.ejs' instead
• Visit the hosted pages using the subdomain you created. http://*.parseapp.com

Localization

• Japanese mobile phone and language localization support added.

Optionally

• Lock down the User class in the Data Browser. Remove all permissions except Update from the Public role. This is a good idea even though we're already setting a restrictive ACL on each User we create through this process. You can remove the "Add Field" permission only after using the app, or after manually creating the additional columns.
• Get involved and contribute to the project:
  • Enhance the input validation to support more countries and number formats
  • Improvements to the flow and user experience
  • Add brute-force protection, resetting the code after a few failed attempts
