[SR-Users] IOS 10 and SIP

[Kjeld Flarup]

Rumours is that Apple no longer accepts apps which can do persistent 
connections in the background.

To my best knowledge that means that IOS no longer supports SIP incoming 
calls.
The app should now use Push Notifications, but SIP does not support this.

Anybody faced this problem?

Is the solution to call an external program when processing an Invite? 
This leaves some issues.

1. Should we wait some seconds before proceeding or wait until the Push 
notification has been processed, to give the app time to register.
We cannot start to send invites, before we have a correct registration. 
An old registration may change ports when the app wakes up and makes a 
new register via NAT.

2. How do we know, if a given user should have a push notification?

3. Which information do we need to be able to send the push notification?

4. Does this give a penalty to Android users, because we have to wait 
for IOS?
