I’m new to iOS programming and one thing I don’t get. I have an app idea, I paid for graphic designer to make me a UI design. He sent me a layered psd with custom designed controls, layout etc. Everything is custom designed, not using standard iOS looking controls as I wanted.
The question is how can be this custom design converted to iOS controls, layout and so?

If I consider a Facebook iPad application or Foursquare iPhone application, are that just “skinned” iOS standard controls, or is it written in HTML5 and just wrapped by Objective-C? If so, how?

Thank you

    I recommend that you use Objective-C for native applications. Most controls provide support for “skinning” by allowing you to provide your own images. For example, UISlider has methods to set minimum and maximum image, the track image and tint color as well as the thumb image and tint color. Ray Wenderlich often provides great tutorials on his site that are worth checking out.
