What you will learn

Create an iMessage app that allows users to save a library of images they've created

Work with various Swift 3 based UI components

Know the fundamentals of creating an iMessage app extension with Xcode 8

Why take this course?

Learn how to make an iMessage app using Swift 3 and Xcode 8, that allows users to select an emoji (or any image), combine it with a secondary image, then scale, rotate or move either image, and finally send their compiled creation as an MSMessage. Best of all, the user-created images are saved in a UIPickerView and can be resent at anytime!

Topics include:

  • Working with UIPickerViews
  • Displaying text or UIImageViews in UIPickerView rows
  • Working with multiple components in a picker
  • Adding and styling UIButtons
  • Switching between Expanded and Compact modes
  • Using UIView animations
  • Saving Images as Data to the User Defaults
  • Restoring app states based on the User Defaults
  • Working with Property Lists to manage data
  • Sending MSMessages

Code taught throughout this course can be used in iMessage extensions and for the most part, in any Swift 3 based Xcode project.

No explanation about the used code, no editing, recorded in one go. Seems like this guy was more focussed about getting the course on sale, that actually making something informative.

I have already followed Justin for some time, so I knew the value I would be getting for $10 for this course as well as the instruction quality. I wanted to up my game from using imessage app templates to custom imessage apps, including emoji building.

This tutorials are fast. To the point. But more engaging would have been great. Shorter videos with little slower approach may be good. But overall satisfactory.

Ça va vite, pour un francais le temps de taper le code en meme temps que le formateur et de comprendre ce que l'on fait c'est compliqué.

This love this guy! Justin is awesome, easy to understand, pacing isn't too fast nor too slow, which I can follow along without the frustration. He doesn't speak in complex terms and corrects his mistakes, shows that he's genuine.

showing what to type and not where or how to find what to type is not showing how to program. The video needs to be on using the API.
