I've managed to save LBUser to my mongodb that's running on a server, but I wasn't able to save a class that inherits from LBUser, I just want to know if someone managed to extend LBUser or if it is really something not possible to do right now with the loopback SDK for iOS.

Are you following the instructions from here - http://docs.strongloop.com/display/LB/iOS+SDK – snathan Oct 23 '14 at 02:48

When you say LBUser, do you mean extending the built-in User model? We have a an example of extending models here: http://docs.strongloop.com/display/LB/Extending+models
tl;dr, if you created your app via slc loopback and your model via slc loopback:model user, you can modify common/models/user.json and replace the value in the base property (which is PersistedModel) with User. I have an example here: https://github.com/strongloop/loopback-example-access-control/blob/master/common/models/user.json#L3

Thanks for the answer, unfortunately, I already know and tried this approach (extending User in the .json), the thing is, back at the Loopback iOS SDK, I can't save the extended user, i.e. using `createUserWithEmail`, for example, I created an LBUser instance and casted to my class which extended LBUser, but then when `saveWithSuccess` was called, an error related to HTTP Post appeared. Here's the question in which I specifically asked that, and I also present some code [Strongloop iOS LBUser Extension Error 422 in Post](http://example.com) – C. Porto Oct 23 '14 at 10:54
