  • 0

I’m creating an app which would provide the user with a list of audio files and let them sample a small piece of audio when they select the song (just like the iTunes iOS app).

I love the way the iTunes iOS App has implemented it (image attached); wherein I can click on a cell and the album cover flips over to show a progress indicator and a stop button. I can select a cell and the sample starts to play, and the moment I stop it, the progress indicator flips back over to show the album/song art.

iTunes iOS music preview

I’d like to create something like that for my app. Any suggestions on how I can go ahead with it.

Thanks a ton in advance! 😀

EDIT: Based on Till’s suggestion, I’m adding this edit. What I wish to get by asking this question is suggestions for the best approach to make the flip animation, showing a custom view in a UITableViewCell image space, possible. Currently, I’m not worried about playing the audio or displaying the progress of the playback. I simply need suggestions on the best approach to perform the flip animation and substitute the image with a custom UIView. 🙂 Thanks again! 😀

    You will need to create it. I suggest making it as a custom tablecell. If you polish it well enought, you can put it on CodeCanyon and make it worth your while.

    Also, I can recommend looking at the works on http://cocoacontrols.com/ – It might not have exactly this one, but it has many interesting controls and inspirations.
