I have noticed that in some apps they use what appears to be the the native display screen for a contact, it shows the contact photo, name, phone numbers and options to text message and add to favourites.

But it also will have some customized fields in it also like missed calls or some other non native contact information,

Here is an example screen shot taken from the Viber application:

I am quite new to iPhone development and I was wondering if this screen is made available to developers so that a contacts information can be presented from within an application with custom fields or if it is not and has to be developed from scratch?

EDIT:

Thanks for the help, with it I have successfully recreated the screen in a static manner, I have one more question and that is how would I make the cell that has the outgoing calls in it react to dymanic data?

So for instance there could be 10 calls there, so how do I adjust the size of the cell on the fly? And also whats the best object to use to allow the calls to be displayed? At the moment I’m using a UITextView to display the static data but I dont think this will work for dynamic data?

    I think the developer made this screen there self, it just an UITableView with some custom UITableViewcells.

    You can use the UITableView haderView property to insert the the top view with the image.
    The just add sections for all the white cells, make use the the tableview style is set to grouped.
