I downloaded the thingworx edge app for ios from the store. I also downloaded the sample SteamSensor file from the thingworx website. I know it is a sample app but somehow I cannot get it to connect with server.

I imported the Thing_Steamsensor.xml file into my thingworx composer. Made a new app key with admin rights. I give that key to app on my iphone but it does not connect to the server.

If anyone has connected the sample steamsensor app can you please provide steps or details how to do it.

Thank you

That application is built for a specific connection to a demo system server.  You cannot use it to connect to any other server or device.  To connect an iPhone to a Thingworx Platform the C-SDK would be used to build an edge application which is loaded on the phone.  This would then allow connection to a defined platform server.

@mtahir1 Could you please attach the application and edge logs to review the error. Also, advise the ThingWorx & SDK version you are using to further assist you on the issue.
