I want to add code to my iOS app which prompts users to follow

  • 0

I want to add code to my iOS app which prompts users to “follow” my app’s Twitter feed after they use the program X number of times. However I want to keep it as simple as possible for the user. What are the best practices for programmatically “follow” a Twitter feed? Right now, I have a link to my Twitter feed in the “Help” screen, but I want to make it more visible to the user and try to get more followers.

EDIT: To clarify, I already know how to pop up a UIAlert after the user opens the app 1 times. I am interested in friction-free ways to get the user to “follow” my twitter feed. If possible, I’d like it so that users don’t actually have to enter their username & password if they are already logged into Twitter. Is this possible?

    MGTwitterEngine implements this method

    - (NSString *)enableUpdatesFor:(NSString *)username; // friendships/create (follow username)

    I do not use Twitter, but I think this is what you’re looking for.
