Question

My project is completed for iPhone but now I have to convert it in universal. So I want to know What is the best and quick way to convert iPhone xib to iPad xib in Xcode 4.5.

Answer 1

To convert your app into a universal app follow these steps:

1. Create new xib files specific to iPad

2. Load specific xib file in your code i.e apply a check to see if the device is iPad or iPhone and then load the specific xib file. Check simply looks like this:

    if ([[UIDevice currentDevice] userInterfaceIdiom] == UIUserInterfaceIdiomPhone) {
    // load iPhone xib and write code
    }
   else
   {
    // load iPad xib and write code
   }
