• Due to a bug on Xcode 8.2.x, we had to fix the Star buttons in the LeaveFeedback controller in the Storyboard and its code in LeaveFeedback.swift, now when you tap a star the app shows it correctly.
• Updated Contact.swift by adding the MKMapViewDelegate, a custom mapPin image and a Right Callout accessory button in the MapView, so when you tap the mini location icon of the rightCalloutAccessoryView the native iOS Maps app opens up and show the location of your hotel.  

MyHotel is a complete Universal app template you can use to create an app for your own hotel without needing a website. You can update your Hotel data (name, description, gallery, rooms, etc.) via your own Parse Dashboard, so you don’t need to submit updates to the App Store when you have to add/update some info about your business. You can also send Push Notifications to all registered devices through the Parse Push web console on back{4}app.

Since its backend is by Parse Server you don’t have to buy any domain/hosting, there are NO PHP files to upload to a web server so you’ll save some money for the server side.

You may also use the Adminca.com, a free CMS panel for Parse SDK as a great alternative to insert/edit data in your Parse Dashboard, after you’ll create your app on back4app, create a free account on and create a new Panel, choose Self-hosted Parse Server and paste your Host link, Application ID and Master Key in the relative fields (you can find them in Core Settings of your back4app dashboard)

MyHotel is very easy to customize, single Storyboard, Universal, native XCode project, Swift language, Parse SDK backend hosted on https://back4app.com.

How to remove AdMob banner ads

Check this video out to see how to remove the code that shows AdMob banners: Keep in mind that you must repeat the shown steps for every .swift file that contains this line on the top:

What about free support for this template?

I can offer free support for bugs encountered in the original code. Instead, if you’ve edited the code and messed something up with it, I may apply some fee to fix it either via TeamViewer or by checking your app project files directly on my computer.

Should I use the latest version of Xcode to edit this template?

Yes, I always update my apps to the latest version of the IDE.
