Hi,
How can I display the loading screen animation in iphone? I mean the bars arranged in circles. So that I can use it while some of the part of my app is loading, like initializing. Or should I create may own animation loading?
Thanks.

That's a class called UIActivityIndicatorView. You can either instantiate it as you would any other view in your code or you can drop it into a nib with Interface Builder.

Thanks! Just a question, does the animation in UIActivityIndicatorView will affect the frame rate or speed of the app?

It never has in my experience -- feels pretty light weight. As long as you're not using several of them at once, incurring heavy compositing costs, you should be just fine.

Here is a good example of creating a loading view while waiting for something to happen http://cocoawithlove.com/2009/04/showing-message-over-iphone-keyboard.html
