Suppose I have a UIView that has some buttons and stuff, and I want to help the user understand some features of it by showing some small pop ups. ( For example, I would write in a pop up: "Tip: This is how you can access the database").
It's like doing a small tutorial for a new user the first time he downloads the app.
I know there is the UIPopUpViewController for iPad.
I was wondering if there was a similar thing for iPhone, something that will help me achieve this goal.
Thanks in advance

If you open your iTunes and in the Help menu select iTunes Quick Tour you will be presented with a guide on how to use the app. I want to create something that resembles the transitions this window has. I am trying to start this using Storyboards instead of programmatically. The dots at the bottom allow you to jump to a specific view as well as transition to the next view or previous view.
I am developing this guide in swift for an OS X application.
1) Would this be easier done using a Page Controller or a Tab View Controller or something entirely else?
2) I googled but couldn't find any guides that were close enough to help me get this done. Any guides for this would be appreciated.
I have being doing a project in xcode, it is creation of the kings drinking game for ios. I am using uiimages and nsdictionary to create the game the game is working fine. However I have to implement a framework I havent used before. I was wondering if someone could fill me in on possible frameworks i could use.
I was hoping there was a framework that would help with the displaying the rules when a card is turned.
For example the rule would be a string that is displayed to the screen depending on what card is drawn. I would like to be able to display it to the screen without the use of a pop up box or text field.
if anyone could let me know if there is a possible framework that would do this or a framework that would work well with a card game for ios I would appreciate it.
Thanking You
I'm a beginner in IOS but I need to show a video when the app is launching.
Please Can you help me?
If is impossible to implement a video on a splash view, there are any idea to create that?
Thanks.
If I have an orthographic mistake, sorry I come from Spain. ;D
The "splash" screen can only be an image to be used as a placeholder until your app is able to start up. Even if you found a way to get a video to play, which I don't think is possible, it is against Apple's HIG for how the startup screen is supposed to be used.
It would be possible to load your video in its own view immediately after the splash screen. You would need to check for a first time run to determine whether to show it, unless you plan to show it each and every time. Hope this helps.

In my app I want to show multiple views one after another to show multiple values when the user slides his finger on the screen, just like photo album. I want the same animation. Can anyone explain how I can achieve this?
You can store the images in an array... By using the UISwipeGestureRecognizer you can able to do the photo album.... if you have any doubt communicate with me...
I suggest looking at one of the WWDC 2010 sessions, I believe it was called "Designing apps with scroll views", it basically builds the exact thing your looking for with UIScrollViews. Take a look at the video and the sample code - https://developer.apple.com/videos/wwdc/2010/?id=104 and the sample code should be here http://connect.apple.com/cgi-bin/WebObjects/MemberSite.woa/wa/getSoftware?code=y&source=x&bundleID=20645
PS! You have to be a iPhone Developer to access this content.
I am trying to design a feature in my application for the iPhone that simulates the Springboard feature (Main menu of the iPhone that allows you to view more apps), or the way Weather application works that allows you to flip between views.
Does anyone have any samples of this how I would go about doing this. It's seems very trivial but I am wondering if I am missing something that is already available either as an Apple example or someone who did a tutorial on this.
The image below show how the user would use it.

As they slide their finger to the right (or left) the other image would begin to show up. And it would animate smoothly. The faster you swiped your finger the faster it would move to the next view.
Update: The other feature is that it should mimic the same feel when you slide your hand across the display that is snaps to the current view into place. It should not keep sliding across if there is more than 1 view to the direction you swiping your finger.
I've seen other applications use this so that is why I am asking.
This is accomplished using the UIScrollView with the pagingEnabled property set to true. Just add each of your views, adjust the contentSize, and it will automatically "page" to the width of the screen across the content.
There is a sample app (with code) with exactly this functionality on the iPhone developer site on Apple.com (I believe it's called "PageControl".) - I'd suggest checking it out.
d.
I'm writing an app that uses a similar UI. As NilObject recommended, we're using a UIScrollView with pagingEnabled=YES.
You may also be interested in this example code involving just two child views. I'm trying it out now; it's an interesting technique but I've had to write some additional special-casing code for some odd situations that resulted.
There's also another question on this site that asks about creating a grid of icons like the home screen.
I would check out Joe Hewitt's code from the Three20 project for this. It provides a nice interface and further refinement of the UIScrollView implemented as TTScrollView and TTScrollViewDelegate, TTScrollViewDataSource.
