Video Description

In this iOS Programming training bundle from expert author Keith Welch, you will learn how to apply core Apple frameworks to your Apps. This video series is designed for developers that already have a fundamental understanding of Xcode, Objective C and how to build iOS Apps. This iOS Programming training bundle contains information that has been updated for 2014.
Keith covers 6 main frameworks that you can use within your apps. The first Framework covered is iCloud, which is used to store data and settings in the Cloud rather than in the device the app is running on. Next, Keith shows you how to add In-App purchasing, allowing you to monetize your Apps with subscriptions and single item purchasing. You will then learn about Location Services, which is a Framework that uses Geodata to pinpoint a device's location, opening the door for mapping and location specific actions. This video tutorial also covers how to capture and share images, video and audio, as well as accessing existing files from within the Media Player Library. Keith teaches you about the Motion Framework, which allows you to take advantage of the Gyroscope and Accelerometer built into Apple devices. Finally, this video course teaches you how to integrate Social API's for posting to Facebook and Twitter.
By the end of this iOS training bundle, you will have a clear, in-depth understanding of how to utilize these 6 popular frameworks in such a way as to enhance your iOS Apps. Working files are included, allowing you to follow along with the author throughout the lessons.
