Map annotation Visibility

- 



MKMapRectContainsPoint will tell you if it is visible.






visibleCount = 0;
for (MyAnnotation *annotation in mapView.annotations) {
    if (MKMapRectContainsPoint(mapView.visibleMapRect, MKMapPointForCoordinate(annotation.coordinate)))
    {
        visibleCount++;
    }
}

iOS Architecture

I am pretty sure that even a few experienced iOS developers would have a hard time defining the iOS SDK in one sentence. The acronym  SDK  stands for  Software Development Kit . The iOS SDK contains the tools and resources to develop native iOS applications, which means that the SDK enables developers to develop, install, run, and test applications in the simulator and on physical devices. The two driving forces powering native iOS applications are Swift (or Objective-C) and the native iOS system frameworks. In the previous articles, we explored the Swift programming language. In this article, I want to explore the frameworks that power native iOS applications. You now know what the iOS SDK is, but what makes an application qualify as a native iOS application? The simple answer is that an iOS application is an application that runs on an iOS device. That's only half the truth, though. What about web applications that run in Safari? An iOS application is...

Local Notifications with iOS 10

I can’t believe it is over six years since I first wrote about  local notifications in iOS 4 . Well in iOS 10 Apple has deprecated  UILocalNotification  which means it is time to get familiar with a new notifications framework. Setup This is a long post so let’s start easy by importing the new notifications framework: // Swift import UserNotifications // Objective-C (with modules enabled) @ import UserNotifications; You manage notifications through a shared  UNUserNotificationCenter  object: // Swift let center = UNUserNotificationCenter .current() // Objective-C UNUserNotificationCenter *center = [ UNUserNotificationCenter currentNotificationCenter]; Authorization As with the older notifications framework you need to have the user’s permission for the types of notification your App will use. Make the request early in your App life cycle such as in  application:didFinishLaunchingWithOptions: . The first time your App requests auth...

Performance Tips for IOS Application

-
Performance Tips for IOS Application At each step in the development of your app, consider the implications of your design choices on the overall performance of your app. Power usage and memory consumption are extremely important considerations for iOS apps, and there are many other considerations as well. The following sections describe the factors you should consider throughout the development process. 1. Reduce Your App’s Power Consumption Power consumption on mobile devices is always an issue. The power management system in iOS conserves power by shutting down any hardware features that are not currently being used. You can help improve battery life by optimizing your use of the following features: The CPU Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, and baseband (EDGE, 3G) radios The Core Location framework The accelerometers The disk The goal of your optimizations should be to do the most work you can in the most efficient way possible. You should always optimize your app’...
