I would like to display my application running on iphone on a big screem, either TV or using a projector. After a long search I heard about the undocumented API MPTVOutWindow which fullfill's my requirement. But i think this is not approved by apple. Is there any other options available in latest SDK to TV out an application
The class you want to look at is UIScreen it has support for external displays using the iPad VGA connector in iOS 3.2 (iPad) and iOS 4 (iPhone).
This blog post has a good example on how to use it: mattgemmell.com: iPad VGA Output

everybody,
I am currently developing an iOS application. This application should make it possible to read NFC tags with an iPad. The NFC has already been successfully tested on an iPhone 7 / 8.
As soon as I test this function on an iPad (2017), the NFC dialog will not open and it is not possible to read NFC tags.
The implementation was carried out under Swift with the CoreNFC.
Development environment:
xCode 9.4.1
iOS 11.x.x
Signing debug certificate available
Do you have any ideas?
Near Field Communication is not supported on any iPad models at the moment.
CoreNFC on iOS is supported on iPhones from iPhone 7 onward.
An NFC accessory reader such as the FloBLE Plus can enable NFC functionality on the iPad.
Disclaimer: I work for Flomio, an NFC, BLE, and RFID company that specializes in helping developers integrate these technologies in their apps.
No iPad models feature NFC (Near Field Communication) technology.
I'm looking to start to develop an iPhone app, and I'm looking for if I can have access to the NFC chip. I've read when the iPhone 6 was released that the NFC was not able for the developers
Thanks
For what I've seen.. looks like still is being available just for apple pay.
CoreNFC is introduced in iOS 11 SDK for reading NFC Tags
Apple Documentation of CoreNFC

CoreNFC for card emulation?
Just started reading about this ibeacon that apple is selling out to retailers. If I wanted to created an app that connects to these beacons.. how can I do so? Cant seem to find any apis or any help for doing this, it is a relatively new technology. Also, can Android devices also utilize this technology?
Apple has an app called AirLocate that they released at WWDC this year. If you search on "AirLocate" you can find it online.
It is an app that lets you turn your BLE-capable iOS device (iPhone 4S or later, iPad mini/ iPad 3 or later, or 4" iPod) into either a beacon or a beacon detector.
With that source it's quite easy to figure out the basics of iBeacon programming.
As the other poster said, the newest Androids are able to detect beacons, but so far the firmware does not support sending as a beacon.
Yes, Android devices can interact with iBeacons using Radius Networks' Android iBeacon Library.
You can find a table that compares the APIs for both Android and iOS on this page. You may also want to Google for a tutorial.
I want to implement read/scan bar code in my iPhone application. I would like to know how to implement it into our iPhone app and also some links and example code and apps to check out how it works.
You can use our free app pic2shop as an external barcode scanner (from a web page or from another app). Here is a demo and detailed info: http://www.pic2shop.com/developers.html
It works even on non-autofocus devices (iPad2, iPod Touch, iPhone 3G and many Android phones).
I am newbie to iPhone application. But recently I saw a post asking for Barcode Reader for 3G iPhones. And people(including me) have referred to zxing which works on 3GS or later and if you want to make an appication for 3G then better you buy it from QuickMark or RedLaser to get 3g scanning.
So I planned something and need several information from you all
There are lots available on appStore. One of them is pic2shop(Which is a free application).
But what I want to know is:
What exactly is it done to recognize the barcode and generate code?
Is there any website or link to which when image of barcode is send will respond with the code generated or any API which does the same i.e. Taking picture and generating code.
And Secondly From Where does we get the information about the produce related to that barcode code.
Hi we recently had a product which required bar code scanning functionality, in the end after evaluating a lot options we went with zBar but it does not work on iPhone 3G it requires 3GS or above.
zBar is an open source SDK you can download it from sourceforge.
What we're doing right now is scanning bar codes using the zbar SDK & then calling upcdatabase.com API through xml-rpc to get the information about the product back.
And its working pretty well.
If you do not want to pay redlaser or others for SDK I would recommend using this approach. But of-course the downside is iphone 3G is not supported which I think does not represent many devices & also recently Apple has also dropped its support for its upgrades as iPhone 3G users will not be able to upgrade to iOS 4.3.
I actually own a 3G iphone & its very slow on iOS version 4.0 .
