Just curious if the tab bar UI element in screenshots is some built in class or customized. If it is customized, then please give me a hint on what classes I might check to have something like that.

The first screenshot is initial tab bar. When I tap on the last icon the tab bar smoothly(animated) resize itself as on second screenshot. If I press the edit button the icons are shaking(as on iPhone home) and I'm able to arrange them.

tab bar

second

more buttons

Looks like it's custom. You might just want to look at subclassing UIView and putting a bunch of buttons it stored in a NSArray. That way, when you re-arange them, you just have to move the objects to a new position in the array.

You should be able to achieve the shaking by using simple UIView animations.

@Brian515: Thanks. Can anyone elaborate more? How about the gray bar with 2 buttons?

The tabbar in the top image could just be a standard tabbar with a non-standard color scheme.

The bottom image is a custom element most likely implemented in an UIActionSheet.

Gotta say, this is a butt ugly UI using non-standard (and therefore confusing) elements. I wouldn't suggest trying to emulate it.
