Xcode 5 Tips and Tricks for iOS 7 App Development brings you 15 detailed projects to teach you how to create iOS 7 apps for the iPhone and iPad.

Includes how-to code on image processing (core image), responding to user touches, using collection views, in-app purchase integration and much more. This book assumes you have started using Xcode 5 but are not yet an expert. Chapters include:

* Creating an audio player

* Sharing with UIActivityController
* Using core image to set sepia, monotone color, changing hue and exposure
* Managing date and time components in your app and datepickers
* Sending tweets from an app

These projects are created to teach from objective-c code that was used in real apps for sale in the app store. If you're ready to move beyond a simple "hello world" project to real app development, this book is what you're looking for.
