iPhone UI design...!!

Hi All,

I have seen apps in App Store that have really attractive UI.When i make an app i use only the default set of control provided by Interface Builder and my app(even though good in functionality)does not have a UI that can attract people.Is there any ref or sample code that teaches us how to design good UIs for iPhone apps.

Also I want to place a control in my App similar to one in iPhone(i.e the way we unlock the iPhone by sliding a button and the iPhone gets unlocked)how can we do this.Please provide some ref or sample code for it.

+3 A:

There is no simples step by step description of how to make really attractive ui's. It takes both time, skill and a sense of esthetics. However, a good starting point is to thoroughly read your way through apples iphone human interface guidelines:

thx kasperjj......and do you have any idea about my second question mentioned above......thx once again.

As far as I know, there is no direct way to do this. You would need to subclass an existing control and implement most of it by yourself.

You could take a look at this Video from a conference session on designing custom controls http://www.mac-developer-network.com/video/video101004.html

thx Ian ...........but its a paid site...........!

It is paid, but it is also very good quality content. If you are able to pay for it, it probably will save time in the long run.
