got a question about this one. I was thinking about trying to get this working and i was wondering if the relevant code needs to be written in obj-c or if swift is an option?

Just objective c at the moment.

According to a recent report:

… incoming missed calls that are made through third-party VoIP applications like Skype, WhatsApp, and Viber, and that use Apple CallKit to make the calls, also get logged to [iCloud].

Just FYI.

Thanks for working on it, this feature is super useful. Sad it log calls on iCloud if activated. Is there a way to prevent this behavior?

Will be in 2.7.0
