SmartSpectra SDK
Swift

Option 1: API Key

Fast manual SmartSpectra Swift setup using an API key.

Use this if you want the fastest manual path.

What you will change manually

You will touch exactly these things:

  1. The app target package dependencies
  2. The app target camera permission
  3. Cool Vitals/ContentView.swift

You do not need to create any new Swift files.

Result you should get

At the end, the app should show:

  • Status and Validation at the top
  • live camera preview
  • pulse rate, breathing rate, HRV RMSSD, and expression cards
  • white labels for those four cards
  • confidence-colored pulse and breath-rate values
  • one large arterial pressure waveform
  • chest and abdomen breathing waveforms
  • guidance text below the breathing waveforms
  • one portrait screen with no scrolling

Register for your free API Key

Create an Account

  1. Navigate to the Presage Developer Admin Service Portal
  2. Click Register and fill in your email, password, and other required fields.
  3. Check your email for a confirmation link and follow it to activate your account.

Log In

  1. Go to the Presage Developer Admin Portal Login
  2. Enter your email and password, then click Submit.
  3. After successful login you will be redirected to your Portal page, where you can manage your API key.

Step 1 — Create the project

In Xcode, create a new iOS app project:

  1. Select FileNewProject...
  2. Choose iOSApp
  3. Set Product Name to Cool Vitals
  4. Set Interface to SwiftUI
  5. Set Language to Swift
  6. Save the project

If you already created the project, open it instead.

In Finder, open:

  • Cool Vitals/Cool Vitals.xcodeproj

Then select the app target in Xcode.

Step 2 — Add the SmartSpectra package

In Xcode:

  1. Click FileAdd Package Dependencies...
  2. Paste https://github.com/Presage-Security/SmartSpectra-Swift/
  3. For repeatable builds, choose Exact Version and enter a released tag such as 3.0.0
  4. Use Branchmain only when testing the latest final public release before pinning a version
  5. Add the package to the Cool Vitals app target

Manual check:

  • In the project navigator, you should now see Package Dependencies
  • SmartSpectra should be attached to the app target

Step 3 — Add camera permission

In Xcode:

  1. Select the Cool Vitals target
  2. Open the Info tab
  3. Add a new key named Privacy - Camera Usage Description
    NOTE Ctrl + Click on the Custom iOS Target Properties and click Add Row
  4. Set the value to This app needs camera access to measure vitals.

Manual check:

  • The app target now has a camera usage description

Step 4 — Replace ContentView.swift

In Xcode:

  1. Open Cool Vitals/ContentView.swift
  2. Delete everything in the file
  3. Paste the full file below
  4. Replace YOUR_API_KEY with your real API key
    NOTE: Login or Register at the Presage developer portal for your API Key

Paste this entire file:

Step 5 — Build and run on a phone

In Xcode:

  1. Choose a physical iPhone as the run destination
  2. Build and run the app
  3. Allow camera access when iOS asks
  4. Wait a few seconds for camera tuning and signal stabilization

Do not use the simulator.

What success looks like

If the install is correct, you should see all of these:

  • Status and Validation chips are visible at the top
  • the preview is below the chips
  • the arterial pressure waveform is larger than the breathing waveforms
  • chest and abdomen waveforms both appear on screen
  • the guidance text is below those waveforms
  • the pulse and breath-rate numbers change color with confidence
  • expressions and HRV are reported

Expected log note for API key mode

This log is expected in API key mode and is not a failure:

  • PresageService-Info.plist not found. OAuth authentication will be disabled. Using API key authentication instead.

Common manual mistakes

If the screen does not match the target state, check these first:

  • the package was added to the wrong target
  • ContentView.swift was only partially replaced
  • YOUR_API_KEY was not replaced with a real key
  • the app is still running an older installed build on the phone
  • the app was run in the simulator instead of on a real device
