• Create your own app like we did in lecture.
• Have the UILabel text begin as "Hello, Everybody!" and when the user clicks the button, have it change to "It worked!"
• Use Quicktime to capture a screen recording (File - New Screen Recording) in which you show Xcode open with your code. Hit play so that your app runs in the simulator. While it is running, click on your button. Then stop the recording. Save the file to your local computer, then upload to Eureka for Peer Review.
• Here is what you will be reviewing others on and what others will be reviewing you on:
  1. Does video show that the project has built without errors? (4 points)
  2. Does video demonstrate pressing a button on the app? (1 point)
  3. Does the app do anything when the button is pressed? (2 points)
  4. Does the label change according to spec when the button is pressed? (3 points)
  5. Does the app perform all of the functions listed in the grading rubric without crashing? (2 points)
• Don't worry if you don't understand everything that you are doing yet! This is just to get you going.

• In this assignment, I want you to create an iOS app that calculates the conversion from one currency to 3 others. The exchange rates will be accurate for the current date.
• Your application should include a UITextField, for the user to put the initial measurement into. It should be paired with a UILabel clarifying which units the input is in (US Dollars).
• Below this should be a UISegmentedControl with 3 segments. Each segment should have a different currency unit that the user can convert their single input to.
• When the user enters a value in the text field or switches the segment controller the current input should be converted into the appropriate currency.
• Use QuickTime to capture a screen recording (File - New Screen Recording) in which you show XCode open with your code. Hit play so that your app runs in the simulator. While it is running, demonstrate your app converting to all three untis. Then stop the recording. Save the file to your local computer, then upload to Eureka for Peer Review.

  2. Does the video demonstrate the user entering a value into the input field? (2 points)
  3. Does the video show that a multi-segment controller with 3 new currencies has been added to the UI? (1 point)
  4. First Unit:
     1. Does the video show the user calculating the conversion to the first unit? (1 point)
     2. Does the UI calculate the right answer (approximately) ? (1 point)

Now that you have enough tools under your belt to use OAuth2, it’s time to put it to work. This assignment is a simple extension of what we have done in class so far, but it offers a bit more flexibility for you to be creative and address a problem that you would like to work on.

The assignment is to build an app that uses OAuth2.0 to connect to a service on the internet. Your app should allow the user to authenticate to the service as our Instagram app did in class. When the authentication has taken place you are to use the service’s API to download some content and display it in your app.

Many different web services offer APIs. Instagram is one. Here is a directory of others ( http://www.programmableweb.com/apis/directory). This is just a manual directory, your favorite website might have an API, but not be in this directory. That’s okay, you can use it if you want.

Whichever website you choose:

• It must use OAuth2 to authenticate. (I don’t want you using some data on the web that doesn't require an account)
• It must provide an API via REST requests (via https for example)
• You must access data that changes over time. A photo feed, sports scores, weather info are all good examples

After authenticating the user, you must go to the website and use the API and display the results to the user in some format.

You should turn in a video of your application functioning. Take 30 seconds at the beginning of the video to explain what you did so that we can interpret the video correctly. Be careful about revealing your password while recording the video.

Too easy?

• Extra Challenge 1: Retrieve a photo from the API and display it.
• Extra Challenge 2: Put the results of two or more different API calls into the same UI.
• Extra Challenge 3 (Impress me for a bonus point): Put the results of two or more API calls from different services into the same UI in a way that creates some kind of unique and helpful interaction

This assignment is to make a timer app that uses push notifications.

You should create a simple app that allows the user to set a number of seconds in the future for the application to send a local push notification. Then the app should send that notification.

To assess this app we are going to record a screen cast of the app (as in the previous workshops). I need to see some pretty specific behavior to be recorded.

1. First open the app. No popups should launch.
2. Set the timer for 5 seconds and schedule a notification
3. Leave the application open until you that you receive a notification. When you receive the notification, launch a pop-up that indicates that the notification was received while the app was running.
4. Now set the timer for 10 seconds and schedule a notification
5. Before the notification fires, switch to a different app, but don't "swipe up" to clear the application from memory
6. Show that the notification occurs. It should drop down from the top of the device.
7. Click on the notification
8. This should send you back to your application where you should launch an alert that says that your received a local notification while not in the foreground
9. Now set the timer for 15 seconds and schedule a notification
10. Double click the home button and swipe the app up so that it is cleared from memory
11. Show that the notification occurs. It should drop down from the top of the device.
12. Click on the notification
13. This should send you back to your application where you should launch an alert that says that your received a local notification while not in the foreground
14. Finally set the timer for 16 seconds and schedule a notification
15. Lock the device before the alert goes off
16. Show that the notification occurs. It should appear on the lock screen.
17. Click on the notification
18. This should send you back to your application where you should launch an alert that says that your received a local notification while not in the foreground

Too easy? Record a demo of these after the standard one above

• Extra Challenge 1: Use custom actions on your local notification and include the name of the custom action on your launch popup.
• Extra Challenge 2: Demonstrate multiple notifications in play at one time with a custom action that clears all not-fired notifications without bringing your app to the foreground

This is a two-part assignment. Both parts require turning in a video of your app. The first video is an in-progress milestone, the second is a final turn-in.

The goal of the app is to work with CoreData and the UIPickerView

Your assignment is to create an app which leverages two or more entities in CoreData and the PickerView to enter the data

The reference model for this is a Chore app with allows a user to enter chores, people and a relationship between chores and people that has a date property. In this example, three entity tables are required and three UIPickerViews, one of which is a DatePicker are utilized.

What the assignment is looking for you to do specifically is to leverage 2 or more tables that have 1 or more relationships, to use Core Data and to use the UIPickerView. You can implement your own app idea. Here are some examples, a library app that checkouts books to people, a trainer app that maps people to exercises completed, a CSA app that trackes deliveries of different share types to people. Each of those would use three tables: two concepts and a relationship between them.

For the first turn in, submit a video that demonstrates your app running in a simulator displaying the following:

• A user-interface that communicates your concept
• A UIPickerView that has customized data in it

For the second turn in, submit a video that demonstrates:

This assignment is designed to get you to interact with size classes and the constraint engine.

I want you to create one app whose UI behaves in specific ways on different devices and screen orientations

Create an interface which has four color panels. The panels should fill up the entire screen in all presentations. The panels should all be the same size as each other regardless of which presenation they are in, although the size may change in different presentations. Optionally you may include margins around the panels.

Set up constraints so that when in a regular(h)/regular(v) layout all boxes are equal and the same size in a 2x2 grid.

Set up constraints so that when in a compact(h)/regular(v) layout only the left two boxes show up.

Set up constraints so that when in a regular(h)/compact(v) layout only the top two boxes show up.

Set up constraints so that when in a compact(h)/compact(v) layout only the upper left box shows up.

In each view display a label which describes the current layout environments. "Compact - Regular" "Regular-Regular" etc.

You should do this without writing any code.

Turn in a video of you running your app in the following simulated configurations:

• iPad portrait
• iPad landscape
• iPad portrait 2/3 view
• iPad portrait 1/3 view
• iPad landscape 2/3 view
• iPad landscape 1/2 view
• iPad landscape 1/3 view
• iPhone 6S Plus portrait
• iPhone 6S Plus landscape
• iPhone 5 portrait
• iPhone 5 landscape

This assignment is designed to get you to interact with size classes and the constraint engine.

Design the app shown on in the slides from Friday (which we didn't get to): Lectures/Slides_61_ConstraintLayoutBonus/index.html

The webview should load a web page and the map view should load a map (you'll have to figure out how to do that on your own maybe 3 lines of code each). The text fields should have unique text in them.

Turn in a video of your app running on an iPad in both orientations

A successful solution is worth 4 raw points in the mini-app category

This is a two-part assignment. Both parts require turning in a zip file of your project, code and all. The first submission is an in-progress milestone, the second is a final turn-in.

The goal of the app is to work with Navigation View Controllers, Scroll Views and MapViews in one app.

Your assignment is to create a main page that features a seque to two other pages.

One of the child pages should show a map with a toolbar. The toolbar should have one button on it. Clicking on that button should center the map on the users current position.

The other child page should have a long vertical content page which is navigated by using a ScrollView. The ScrollView should not be able to scroll horizontally, just vertically. The content can be whatever you would like as long as it takes up more than one physical device page vertically.

This app will be evaluated on an iPhone 6 plus simulator in portrait mode only.

15. Does colliding with a block cause the block to disappear? (1 point)
16. Does the app perform all of the functions listed in the grading rubric without crashing? (2 points) (1 point)

For this final assignment I am requiring you to choose one of three options for a final app to create and turn-in.

1. A To-Do List manager. Backed by core data and using a Fetched Results Controller. You can create this app by following a tutorial online. I want you to extend it in some way and describe how you did something different from the tutorial
2. A simple sidescroller game. You can also create this app by following a tutorial online. I want you to create your own graphics and describe how you made it your own.
3. An application that requests data from an online web source (OAuth2 anyone?) and plots the data on a MapKit map. There is not a specific tutorial for doing this.
4. A final option is if you have an idea that is not here I am willing to hear a pitch, but it needs to be scoped very tightly to make sure you can accomplish it.

You will turn in your whole project with a 1-page description of what you did and how I should run it. You will be evaluated on how cleanly it works and how well you implemented the features shown in the tutorial and the degree to which you improved upon the tutorial.
