Question

I have an app that allows the user to take photos using front facing camera and store them in the app. I would like to offer the user an ability to view all photos in order they were taken one after another.

I know that this should be fairly easy to implement, but from my past experience, there may be hidden orientation issues, etc. I would like to know if there are some open source libraries, or apple-provided classes that I can use to display a slideshow of photos to the user?

Thank you for your input!

Answer 1

Although I usually use the following

NSArray *animationImages = [[NSArray alloc] initWithObjects:
[UIImage imageNamed:@”image.ext”],
[UIImage imageNamed:@”image2.ext”],
….
nil];
_imageView.animationImages=animationImages;
[_imageView startAnimating];

Here is what I think you might like that I have shamefully copied from here Stack Overflow

You can use the Three20 photo viewer. You can look at this tutorial for help on using it.

There is also a WWDC video from last year which gives you an idea on how this can be implemented.

There are other tools that you can look into. Cocoa Controls has a fairly exhaustive list of tools that you can use for your projects.
