Firebase Database wont be connected to App in TestFlight - objective-c

Hey there so I just uploaded my first app to App Store Connect. The verification is still pending, but I as the admin got to test the App before that. My Problem is that my Database Firebase won't work with the App version I got from test flight will this be changed when the App is verified?

I will encourage you to look through the Firebase documentation. It has code samples in swift as well as Objective C.
As far as your requirement is concerned, if you are using Realtime Database, you'll do it this way:
[[[_ref child:#"user"] childByAutoId] setValue:#"1"];

Setting the User Context App Insights for React Native

We have a React Native app and we are logging to App Insights using the "applicationinsights-react-native package", this all works fine in a sense, but we are trying to start using the monitoring side of things which uses a User ID. Now I'm pretty sure that whatever the User ID that the (app insights) package is using for a user ID won't cause too many problems if we kept it, but it won't be right.
The ApplicationInsights class has a setAuthenticatedUserContext method, however the comments seem to refer to cookies suggesting it's a React package re-purposed and this GitHub post https://github.com/microsoft/appcenter-sdk-react-native/issues/503 suggests we can't use it, however the response is for the React Natve AppCenter package which we are not using. We are using App Insights direct.
So I was wondering if there was a way to set our user_Id/User context if we are using App Insights directly from a React Native app?
It looks like setAuthenticatedUserContext does work if you talk to App Insights directly and not theough Appcenter, it's possible that it works through Appcenter now as well, I have not tested so I am not sure.
If you want to check that this ends up as on the App Insighst side, it appears as a property called user_AuthenticatedId.

AppStore Connect - Is IDFA gone?

I'm uploading a new build of my iOS app and as always, I was going to check the IDFA options but I can't find them anywhere! Did something change?
It seems after requirement that apps use IDFA must ask users permission, Apple doesn't ask developers to select whether app use IDFA in App Store connect anymore.
So just submit app and don't care about it. I have submited an app successfully.

How to Send Push Notification to Xamarin Android app?

I need to implement push notification to our Android App using Xamarin. Here is the process. We have web version which used by the Manager. The Manager creates and assign job to the driver. The App version is used by the Driver where it shows the list of jobs and processes of job until its complete. So, when the Manager assigned the Job to the Driver in the Web version, it will then notified to the Driver in the App version that "new job is assigned". Basically, both the web and app uses same database then we created an api(REST API in MVC C#) to connect and get data from the db to be used in the mobile app.
Can someone recommend to me which Push notification plugin(a plugin or nuget) should I use to do this? Currently, I have set up Push Notifications through App center & Firebase but not sure how this work.
Thank you.
I need to implement push notification to our Android App using Xamarin.
I would suggest you use Firebase for mobile push notifications for Android as it is a product by Google, and was made for mobile applications. For push notifications, you will be using Firebase Cloud Messaging also known as FCM. See to it that you are well versed on how it works before you start coding anything read the documents it answers most of your questions there itself.

For this, you will have to check on how to work with Firebase using Rest-API. Once you configure the Rest-API and then apply your business logic to it things will be quite easier than you might have imagined.

My recommendation is quite simple, Do not use any sort of a firebase push notifications plugin!. I have had a very bad past with plugins and ever since then I never recommend fellow developers to use plugins until it is a well-maintained one. I would rather ask you to simply configure Firebase on the basis of the guides that are available online. Like the following Xamarin.Android guide for FCM. It is detailed contains everything that you are looking for and what else I would suggest is you check firebase related answers on SO and you will find that almost everything that is not available in docs is covered around here and in detail. Like the following:
How to handle Firebase Notification i.e. Notification Messages and Data Messages
Push Notification in android with firebase get token
How to send device to device messages using Firebase Cloud Messaging?
Receive push notifications on one android app from two Firebase projects

react native how run code if uninstall app

Is there a way to run code (for example call an api to delete some data automatically) if I delete the app?
To be more specific, to make a call to an api to delete push information if the user delete the app without loging out
According to this post comment:
Sorry, this is not possible. It's not a limitation of React Native - neither Apple or Google give you this metric. You can track your app install numbers in Google Analytics and iTunes Connect, but I believe neither will give you a simple answer either.

facebook audience network testing on test flight No Fill

testing our app when running on xcode is good and we can see ads even without test mode (device hash), so we can see live ads. Everything is setup fine, but when we test the app on test flight, It's always returning a log of "No Fill".. :S,
We have logged in the facebook native app, Limit ads tracking is disabled..
What do you think is still the problem? Is it required from facebook that the app is live on apple store?
Thank you very much!..
The issue is in TestFlight.
By design, TestFlight generates a new and different IDFA in each run. Those IDFAs are different from your device IDFA which is used by Facebook native app. When your app sent ad requests with those new IDFAs to Audience Network, the server cannot matching the IDFA to get the proper ads and returns 'NO FILL' back. That is what exactly you have experienced.
Here is the link for detail:iOS: TestFlight beta app get new advertising identifier in each run.
The solution is to get off TestFlight and run the app directly through the device, or continues to use TestFlight but with Facebook test ad only.
