PhoneRTC doesn't currently support 64 bit devices. From 1st February 2015, Apple requires all iOS apps to support 64 bit devices.

Therefore, very soon PhoneRTC will no longer be a viable option for including video chat in an iOS application. This issue has been reported on PhoneRTC's repository on Github, but so far nobody has taken it on.

Does anybody know of either a way that PhoneRTC can be made to support 64 bit devices, or a suitable alternative?

    Only alternative I am aware of would be OpenTok, but it is not opensource. So it is quite different solution. – Mark Veenstra Jan 22 '15 at 13:08

    time for someone to write a valid phonegap/cordova webRTC plugin, i really wish someone will start a valid new one exposing more API from the native side to the phonegap view – itsme Jan 22 '15 at 13:15
  • @MarkVeenstra thanks, I'll look into that as an alternative if this doesn't come off. – shauneba Jan 22 '15 at 13:38
  • @sbaaaang yeah.. If I had the time and expertise I'd do it myself! – shauneba Jan 22 '15 at 13:39
  • Someone from PhoneRTC just needs to get on this otherwise the whole wonderful project (The only free solution for Cordova) is lost. – xendi Jan 22 '15 at 22:16
  • Well at this moment you could go for a SIP with WebRTC solution. Using JSSIP + Crosswalk + Cordova. Crosswalk enables WebRTC in the Webview. Only IOS is not supported (yet). @sbaaaang – Mark Veenstra Jan 23 '15 at 10:45
  • @MarkVeenstra WebRTC = free , any other alternative to webRTC costs in terms of money and servers or is not fully supported unfortunately – itsme Jan 23 '15 at 14:05
  • What i am wondering is why nobody is starting a new project to support webRTC on cordova, if only i was good at native i'd start it now! – itsme Jan 23 '15 at 14:06
  • @sbaaaang jssip + cordova + crosswalk is all opensource so no costs there – Mark Veenstra Jan 24 '15 at 15:43
  • @MarkVeenstra ok but you talk about Android only – itsme Jan 24 '15 at 19:31

I have made a fork of the github where i have added support for arm64. Just remember to download the binary file for ios seperatly from google drive. Link is in the description of the project.

I have also changed the process after one adds it to a cordova project, but the console will write the new steps, when you add it.
