How can i place my application icon on the lock screen of the iphone programmatically(something like the default camera button next to slide lock). Is it possible ? If so can any one guide me on this ??
EDITED
Hi all.. thanks for replies.. after seeing your replies i understand that this is not possible and its possible in jailbroken devices.. or is it possible to invoke my application through some gesture on lock screen ???
I dont think it is possible. I understand you want to implement something like android interface, but apple has its UI standards and has restricted access to that.
For Jail broken Device:
I'm not sure whether it work or not.
Please check these links:

Note : Possibly it is for Jailbroken devices. Also I didn't checked these video's because it's restricted in our company :(
This is not possible as Apple does not allow that.

I wonder if it's possible to create a GUI for the iPhone home screen when an app is used?
Since I guess the answer is no (it was in the past, havn't found anything new about iOS 7): if I have an audio player, would it be possible to kind of 'route' it to the homescreen like the Podcasts app does it? I have looked for answers but only came across jailbroken solutions so far.
Is there anything one can do there? Thanks in advance.
No, the latest SDK (iOS 7.0) does not allow this, as in add custom GUI element to the lock screen. You can let the media player controls interact with your app if you are playing audio in the background.
And use the MPNowPlayingInfoCenter to display track, artist name and cover art on the lockscreen.
Apple doesn't allow any app to configure the Lock Screen in any way. You could have a music app which might display track details using the : MPNowPlayingInfoCenter.
Other than that all you can display is Notifications.
This isn't available on any version of iOS.
Am working in iPhone device camera based iOS application. I have one requirement to record video from our application even the device screen is off or in locked. I don't have iPhone, iPod and iPad. And also i don't know it is possible to record video in these conditions. Cound you please give me any idea on this? Looking forward your help. Thanks in advance.
No this is not possible. There's no other way to achieve this.
In some countries it's against the law to even take picture without sound effect, such as Japan for example. No wonder Apple don't allow to shoot pictures from locked screen.
I am trying to make an app similar to the way you can set a password upon unlocking an iphone. I have access to face-recognition tech, and I want to make it so that when you slide to unlock you don't have immediate access to the homescreen. Instead, you"re asked to take a picture of your face, and if it matches then the homescreen unlocks. I'm aware that any app that changes the slide to unlock or the homescreen features will be rejected, but this one will just present another layer after the slide to unlock. Is there a way to do this?
Thanks a lot!
The only way to do that is by developing a jailbreak tweak (and, ofc, you need to jailbreak your device).
There's already a tweak similar to what you are trying to do: RecognizeMe You should check it out.
I want to make a screen recorder with iphone.
Is it possible to do that?
If yes how can i implement a screen recorder with xcode, anybody can help me.
I know how to implement(i mean the logic),that is add pictures to a video file in a regular interval.but how can i do this with iphone sdk
Help me...
Assuming you mean a standard iPhone which is not jailbroken:
No, you can't. You could write an app that captured images of its own display when running, but you can't capture the screen in general (e.g. the home screen, or other apps' screens). It's not the sort of software Apple would allow, even if you found a way to hack around it (which I imagine wouldn't be possible).
What about this? It seems to indicate that video screen capture and saving (using the UIGetScreenImage function) is now allowed by Apple.

When you get a call on iPhone a system alert it is shown. There is a nice answer call button, can I use somehow this button on my app or i have to design it by myself?
I suppose this are system resources and could be available in the API.
It is not available for public use in the iOS SDK as of iOS 5
I don't really know how to fetch tat button from an iPhone or its simulator but why don't you customize your own button using this site http://dabuttonfactory.com/ ? It helped me sometimes when I needed buttons for my apps as well.
