Hi guys,
Does anybody know how can I get a tutorial or code for this?. I have been searching and found only for room chats, but I need a direct, user to user chat.
Tks in advance.

Courses Plus Student 15,766 PointsHi Jorge, I don't know if you've done the 'How to Build a Self-Destructing Message iPhone App' course yet, but the principles are pretty much the same and can be adapted for a simple chat app (ie. you don't have to implement the self-destructing part).
The added benefit of using that course is that it also teaches you how to send pictures and videos via Parse.

Courses Plus Student 21,390 PointsHi Nick,
Thanks for your comment man. I did the Ribbit app before, it is not exactly what I was looking for, but with your observation I checked it again and got some ideas.
It was useful.
Cheers!

Courses Plus Student 15,766 PointsThat's good to hear! I also came across a couple of links that might be worth reading, particularly if you want the chat app to work in real-time (seems that Parse is not yet capable of that functionality by itself).

Good luck!
