In my future iOS app, the app will constantly be interacting and retrieving data from a large amount of images (around 1500). I wanted to ask what is the best way to store them in my app and interact with them.
Thank you.
UPDATE: My intent is to extract images from that collection and place them in a UIImageView.
More specifically, the user will be making a selection and according to that selection a specific image(s) from my database will be extracted and placed in the UIImageView.
The concept is simple, however I’m new to iOS and not sure what’s the best way to store images here.
P.S. The images should be stored locally and not localized somewhere in the web
If these images have to be local and readily accessible, there may not be much you can do other than modifying the images to be of smaller size and perhaps change the formatting, but both of these directly depend on how you plan to use these images. If you are simply displaying them, you may want to look into the different image formats and see what quality or size you would be willing to accept.
