I have several iPhone/iPad apps on the App Store. I would like to add snippets of code in my apps that will identify user behavior. For example what features in the app are used the most or the least. Does anybody have a good idea on how to implement this kind of features in my app.
Integrate http://www.flurry.com into your app and set custom events for all of the parts of the app you want to know about. The report will give you a usage amount per session and you can directly identify what is being used.
Use event tracking in Google Analytics.
For each user event you want to track, you would do something like this:
[tracker trackEventWithCategory:#"uiAction"
withAction:#"buttonPress"
withLabel:buttonName
withValue:[NSNumber numberWithInt:100]];
That way you can generate reports in analytics to see what is being used. See their event tracking docs for more details
I use Flurry for all my apps and it works wonderfully. All kinds of helpful (for the right person) data. You can submit Events, like "User won level 608", and attach data in the form of a dictionary to them.
End result: I recommend Flurry.

For iOS6, what are some of the new features that developers can take advantage of?
Specifically, I'm interested in the user location services.
For instance, in iO6 demo it says when a user rejects a phone call, they can select to get notified when they get to work.
Does this mean that GPS services is always on in iOS6? In iOS5, when an app (such as highlight) requests full-time access to location services (even when they exit), GPS remains on, but it drains the battery a lot.
You'll need to part with $99 and become a registered developer if you want to see for yourself or ask us over on the Apple Discussion boards because we're not allowed to talk about it outside of there and with people who are not registered developers.
Read the iOS6 API Differences. This is under NDA(Non Disclosure Agreement) so we're in no position to discuss this publicly.
Head over to the Apple Developer forums and post your questions there.

I'm a beginner of iOS app development,
I'm working on a very small project to show useful info of another app
i simply want it to check the out/ingoing packets through my device and find a specific packet where its string contains a specific word, if found then show the whole packet content,
is it possible to be done and does apple allow tracking packets ? thanks in advance
Regardless of it being possible or not (I'm guessing the answer is no, since you probably need root access and more low level APIs that aren't available by default), you want to track other applications. More specifically the network activity of these applications. This imposes several 'difficulties';
Given their policies, Apple will not allow this.
Your application will need to be active on the foreground, while background activity of applications is limited. The number of packets you will be able to 'sniff' will be very minimal and if you chose to put your application in the background instead your time will be limited to about 10 minutes of execution time.
My advice? Don't. Unless you are interested in the jailbreak 'market'.

I'm planning to do my first facebook-app.
The core of the app would be to choose certain photos from your profile and show them to others users (of the same app). My background is more on the C++ side and low-level programming.
I want to know your suggestions for the following:
1- Which hosting do you suggest? I have read about google-app-engine and Heroku, however I am not sure which one fits best for a free plan until it grows to a significant number of users.
Heroku seems great for a beginner since they give you a sample code, but I am not sure about their databases and their scalability while being free. From here I understand that I have only 5 mb of databases for free which seems too little... right?.
And one more thing: I'm assuming is possible to show photos from others users directly from facebook without hosting it
2- Which framework and language do you suggest given the core of my app? It is not a sophisticated app, so I want to do it as fast as I can without many technical troubles.
Thanks in advance
I think Heroku is good choice for you. http://devcenter.heroku.com/articles/facebook

I am guiding an intern in learning iPhone development.
I need to give him a sample project or I can say an app as part of his project work.
Please suggest some ideas.
Keypoints:
1. It should be a project for which the requirements data can be easily searched on Internet.
2. It should be a 20 days project.
How about an app that given a current geolocation, position, it fetches all stores, bars, restaurants, etc. Using a RESTful API, like simplegeo, google places or cityserch. And annotated a map view. For each pin replace the image with category based icon and annotate the name of the location.
The Stanford iPhone development course once offered a pretty substantial mid-term project to its students, the Paparazzi, http://www.stanford.edu/class/cs193p/cgi-bin/drupal/downloads-2010-winter .
I suggest you take a look at the Paparazzi 1-4 pdf files. It seems it perfectly meets your needs, (1) Flickr data can be easily accessed on the internet, (2) it is pretty substantial and therefore requires quite a few weeks work, (3) It is meant to be help the student learn the skills along the way, therefore is easy at the beginning and gets harder and harder when the student wants to further polish their work.

Can anyone please tell how to add the following kind of poll in a facebook business page...
http://www.facebook.com/hm?v=app_60082431253
It shows in the wall as well as in its own tab.. I can vote from the wall, comment and Like.. excellent feature it is.. but no information about it anywhere :(
Its not available from facebook anymore. I think its because of some of the privacy concerns people have about this app.
From my knowledge, it was a custom-made Poll that Facebook previously made for huge brands willing to pay $ 10, 000 and up. It is no longer available.
However Appbistro.com has a similar Tab app that may fulfill your needs:
Poll Tab
I'm a Facebook developer and I just created a Facebook app that looks like the one you point out. It lets you create a poll and publish it on your Facebook page. Try it out and let me know what you think of it :
