I'm working on a universal iOS application. On the startup a short intro video should be displayed, but I can't figure out how to handle it for both device types correctly. It is a master-detail-application. So when and where should I load my video to view it on startup?

Thanks in advance

  • I just want to throw my two cents in. It is not a good user experience if you force your users to sit through a video everytime they start the app. Perhaps just make it easy to find and start instead of forcing everyone to waste precious time waiting to use your app. – Ryan Poolos Sep 05 '12 at 14:38
  • Well, this might be correct, but it's not really my choice... – Bautzi89 Sep 05 '12 at 15:21
  • Again just my two cents :) and a very very generalized statement. Happy Coding :) – Ryan Poolos Sep 05 '12 at 15:30
  • The video is only about 3 seconds long and it really is not my decision to make it like that, but I have to do it. Thank you anyway – Bautzi89 Sep 06 '12 at 07:37

If you want it just on initial launch, put play code in 

- (BOOL)application:(UIApplication *)application didFinishLaunchingWithOptions:(NSDictionary *)launchOptions

Or if you want to play every time the app becomes active

- (void)applicationDidBecomeActive:(UIApplication *)application

  • I thought about that, too. But how am I gonna add my Movie Player to the application? Do I have to create a navigation controller first? – Bautzi89 Sep 06 '12 at 07:35
