We’re delighted to have HelpShift back as our sponsor this week. Check out their new CocoaPod for even faster integration into your iOS apps:

pod 'Helpshift', '~> 2.4.0'

This week’s Weekly Roundup is brought to you by HelpShift, the integrated Help Desk for native apps. I’ve tried out HelpShift and I must say I couldn’t be happier. It is, by far, the best support system I’ve used for my apps, and the easiest to integrate.

Are you as excited for WWDC as I am? I hope to see some of you in San Francisco this week! I’ll be in town for a couple days, from Monday to Wednesday, and I’d love to meet up with some of you. So, drop us a line on Twitter.

Also, if you haven’t checked it out yet, make sure you take a gander at the WWD...

Thanks to Infragistics for sponsoring Cocoa Controls this week. Check out the free trial of their NucliOS iOS controls.

WWDC is nigh! In just one week, Tim Cook and, ostensibly, Eddy Cue, Craig Federighi, Jony Ive, Bob Mansfield, and Phil Schiller, plus some 3rd parties, will be on-stage to unveil iOS 7, OS X 10.9, and maybe even some new Mac hardware. Except for Ive, presumably, who will be talking to us via video link from an undisclosed location.

Cheers,
Aaron

For your amusement, I present to you the official Cocoa Controls WWDC 2013 bingo card. Any time a classic WWDC phrase is used, a particular person comes on stage, or a new feature is introduced, mark that cell on your bingo card. Five across, down, or diagonal wins!

Mr. Cook is a freebie.

A couple days ago, I posed a question on Twitter asking how many of you use CocoaPods (it actually got 17 replies. I’m not sure why Twitter is being weird about showing them). The consensus appears to be one of ‘yes’ or ‘soon’, with a handful of people who prefer Git submodules.

Currently, we allow you to tell us about apps of yours that use controls on the site, but there’s n...

Hi folks, welcome to our weekly roundup! We’re getting close to WWDC time, and rumors are flying about hardware refreshes, delays to Apple’s unannounced iRadio service (how can an unannounced product be delayed as far as the public is concerned? I know, I know…), and—of course—the de-Forstallification of iOS 7.

Meanwhile, Microsoft is set to unveil the new Xbox (Fusion?) this coming Tuesday. Although it won’t ship until late Fall, I̵...

Welcome to our roundup! We have a phenomenal batch of controls for you this week. There are just some absolute gems in there. Make sure you take the time and check them all out. Also, in case you don’t read Hacker News, a series of blog posts have been showing up on the front page from a fellow named Trevor McKendrick, who has been writing about how to find profitable, unsaturated niches in the App Store. I think you’ll learn a ton from them, so make sure to read the whol...

As Spring abruptly changes into Summer here in Seattle, I’ve been reflecting on what we can expect out of Apple and their Summer plans. First, WWDC is coming in just under a month-and-a-half. We know that iOS 7 and Mac OS X 10.9 are virtually guaranteed to be unveiled at the event. Also, word is that engineers are being pulled off the next Mac OS X release to help shor...
