4D for iOS: Building detail forms made easy
4D for iOS already provides the ability to build detail forms from the Forms section. Starting with 4Dv18R4, we’ve added even more flexibility for building detail form templates. Here’s how.
4D for iOS: Push Notifications
4D v18 R4 delivers a very exciting feature … Push notifications. These are messages sent directly to the user’s mobile device from your app. Push notifications provide users with relevant information to encourage them to engage with an app. As of this feature release, 4D for iOS not only allows doing so but also allows you to do it with ease!
For email authentication, 4D for iOS also makes your life easier.
4D for iOS: Email authentication
Monitoring access to your mobile app is a very important capability that deserves further consideration. Email validation is one of the simplest and most secure ways to determine the authenticity and legitimacy of the person trying to log into your app. 4D for iOS enables you to easily handle this validation process by verifying that an email comes from whom it claims to be sent from, and by allowing you to block harmful uses of the email.
