Built for AI coding agents; kept out of the human sidebar. # iOS UI Kit v5 — LLM docs index (Latest) > Stateful, drop-in Swift/UIKit chat and calling UI. Package `CometChatUIKitSwift@5` + > `CometChatSDK@4` + `CometChatCallsSDK@5`. This page is an **iOS-v5-only** routing index for AI > agents — a scoped alternative to the site-wide `/docs/llms.txt`. ## How to use this index Each link points to the docs page; **append `.md`** to its URL to fetch the clean Markdown twin (verbatim code + an "AI Integration Quick Reference" block with names, types, and defaults). Pick the page for the intent, then read the API there. * Convention: any docs page URL + `.md` → raw Markdown. * Fallback: if a `.md` twin 404s, fetch the same URL **without** `.md` (HTML). Never read the framework's `.swiftinterface` for behaviour, and never answer an API from memory. * iOS specifics: components are `UIView`/`UIViewController` subclasses configured through **chainable `set(...)` methods** (`set(user:)`, `set(onItemClick:)`), not React-style props. Some surfaces are settable **properties** instead (`hideNavigationBar`, `style`) — check the component page rather than assuming a setter exists. ## Install facts an agent must not guess * **SPM is the supported path.** CocoaPods distribution is winding down; `Podfile`/`.xcworkspace` remain valid *detection* signals for an existing project, but new integration uses SPM. * **All three packages are required, even for a chat-only app.** The UI Kit ships as a prebuilt binary whose public `.swiftinterface` imports both `CometChatSDK` and `CometChatCallsSDK`, so the module fails to resolve unless every one is declared and linked: `cometchat-uikit-ios` · `chat-sdk-ios` · `calls-sdk-ios`. * **Pin exact versions, not floors.** The UI Kit binary is compiled against one specific Chat SDK version and SPM will not resolve that transitively; a floating `from:` can drift into a mismatch on the next SDK publish. * **Deployment target is iOS 15.1**, set by the package itself — not iOS 13. * Credentials: `.xcconfig` → matching `$(VAR)` entries in **Info.plist** → read via `Bundle.main.object(forInfoDictionaryKey:)`. The Info.plist step is mandatory and is the most common cause of a nil App ID at runtime. ## Hot path — usually no fetch needed For a plain "add chat" the install, `init → login → render` ordering, and the core drop-in composition are stable; a well-built agent skill bakes them. Fetch below only for exhaustive APIs, long-tail components, theming tokens, or feature enablement. * Setup: [iOS Integration](/ui-kit/ios/getting-started) · [Overview](/ui-kit/ios/overview) * **There is no composite chat component.** No `CometChatMessages`, `CometChatConversationsWithMessages`, `CometChatUsersWithMessages` or `CometChatGroupsWithMessages` exists in v5 — those are v4. A message screen is **host-composed** from header + list + composer inside your own view controller. See [Conversation List + Message View](/ui-kit/ios/ios-conversation). * Core drop-ins: [Conversations](/ui-kit/ios/conversations) · [Message Header](/ui-kit/ios/message-header) · [Message List](/ui-kit/ios/message-list) · [Message Composer](/ui-kit/ios/message-composer) * In SwiftUI hosts, qualify the SDK types — `conversation.conversationWith as? CometChatSDK.User` / `as? CometChatSDK.Group`. SwiftUI declares its own `Group`, so the bare cast is ambiguous and will not compile. ## Getting started / integration * [CometChat UI Kit For iOS](/ui-kit/ios/overview) * [iOS Integration](/ui-kit/ios/getting-started) * [Components Overview](/ui-kit/ios/components-overview) * [Core Features](/ui-kit/ios/core-features) * [Methods](/ui-kit/ios/methods) * [Events](/ui-kit/ios/events) * [Upgrading from V4 to V5](/ui-kit/ios/upgrading-from-v4) * [Troubleshooting](/ui-kit/ios/troubleshooting) ## Task guides (recipes) End-to-end, buildable walkthroughs. **Build FROM the guide** for a whole feature, then apply component-level corrections from the component pages on top. * [Overview](/ui-kit/ios/guide-overview) * [Conversation List + Message View](/ui-kit/ios/ios-conversation) * [One-to-One / Group Chat](/ui-kit/ios/ios-one-to-one-chat) * [Tab-Based Chat](/ui-kit/ios/ios-tab-based-chat) * [Create Conversation](/ui-kit/ios/guide-new-chat) * [Group Details](/ui-kit/ios/guide-group-chat) * [Transfer Group Ownership](/ui-kit/ios/guide-group-ownership) * [Threaded Messages](/ui-kit/ios/guide-threaded-messages) * [Message Privately](/ui-kit/ios/guide-message-privately) * [Block/Unblock User](/ui-kit/ios/guide-block-unblock-user) * [AI Agent Integration](/ui-kit/ios/guide-ai-agent) * [Call Log Details](/ui-kit/ios/guide-call-log-details) ## Components — lists * [Conversations](/ui-kit/ios/conversations) * [Users](/ui-kit/ios/users) * [Groups](/ui-kit/ios/groups) * [Group Members](/ui-kit/ios/group-members) * [Search](/ui-kit/ios/search) * [Notification Feed](/ui-kit/ios/notification-feed) ## Components — messaging * [Message Header](/ui-kit/ios/message-header) * [Message List](/ui-kit/ios/message-list) * [Message Composer](/ui-kit/ios/message-composer) * [Compact Message Composer](/ui-kit/ios/compact-message-composer) * [Message Template](/ui-kit/ios/message-template) * [Threaded Messages Header](/ui-kit/ios/threaded-messages-header) * [Mentions Formatter](/ui-kit/ios/mentions-formatter-guide) * [ShortCut Formatter](/ui-kit/ios/shortcut-formatter-guide) ## Calling * [Calling Integration](/ui-kit/ios/calling-integration) * [Calling Features](/ui-kit/ios/call-features) * [Call Buttons](/ui-kit/ios/call-buttons) * [Call Logs](/ui-kit/ios/call-logs) * [Incoming Call](/ui-kit/ios/incoming-call) * [Outgoing Call](/ui-kit/ios/outgoing-call) * [Ongoing Call](/ui-kit/ios/ongoing-call) ## AI * [AI Features](/ui-kit/ios/ai-features) * [AI Assistant Chat History](/ui-kit/ios/ai-assistant-chat-history) ## Theming and styling * [Introduction](/ui-kit/ios/theme-introduction) * [Component Styling](/ui-kit/ios/component-styling) * [Message Bubble Styling](/ui-kit/ios/message-bubble-styling) * [Color Resources](/ui-kit/ios/color-resources) ## Features and extras * [Extensions](/ui-kit/ios/extensions) * [Campaigns](/ui-kit/ios/campaigns) * [Localize](/ui-kit/ios/localize) * [Sound Manager](/ui-kit/ios/sound-manager) ## When the UI Kit has no component Some capabilities ship no UI Kit component — AI agents, campaigns, moderation, adding group members, transient messages, low-level presence, webhooks. For those, **drop to the Chat SDK** and call the method directly; it is already linked under the kit. Start at the scoped SDK index: [iOS SDK v4 — LLM docs index](/sdk/ios/llms-ios-v4).
