What's in the book

Advanced iOS: Volume Two includes seven new projects that teach some of the most powerful features in iOS, plus technique projects that deep-dive into smaller features:


  • Project 1: Trade my Tesla Teach iOS how to evaluate the trade-in price of cars using machine learning.
  • Project 2: Sightspotter Blend augmented reality with Core Location to help tourists find their way around a city.
  • Project 3: Going Postal Create fun postcards using images, text, and colors, all powered by iOS's new drag and drop APIs.
  • Project 4: Swift Sampler Learn to render PDFs with watermarks and interactive thumbnails, all using PDFKit.
  • Project 5: Picture Protector Build an app that detects faces in photos and lets users interactively blur any they want.
  • Project 6: Name that Tune Use MusicKit to fetch data from Apple Music and build a fast-paced two-player charts game.
  • Project 7: Video X-Ray Let users record a video while the Vision framework silently detects and records all objects in the scene.

  • How to use Core ML and the Vision framework to leverage machine learning in your own apps.
  • Building both games and apps from scratch using ARKit's augmented reality technology.
