iPhone App will not stay open - just flashes when trying to launch
What&#x27;s the right way to design an IoT product to not be dependent on a startup&#x27;s cloud servers?<p>- Allow the app&#x2F;device to point to a different host (running an open source version of the backend)?
- Support LAN connectivity without round-tripping to a third party server?
- Allow the user to load their own firmware onto the device?<p>I don&#x27;t know where the line is for these things, it seems to be a balance of convenience, ownership, and security.<p>What&#x27;s the ideal way to handle this so it works well even if the backing company disappears?
