Messaging

Deprecated: The Ionic Cordova SDK is deprecated. For new Ionic/Cordova applications, please use the JavaScript SDK which provides full compatibility with Ionic applications.

Messaging is one of the core features of CometChat. We've thoughtfully created methods to help you send, receive and fetch message history.

At the minimum, you must add code for sending messages and receiving messages

Once you've implemented that, you can proceed to more advanced features like typing indicators and delivery & read receipts.
