Instagram pop up feature alike in swift

I was wondering if anyone have any idea how to work out something similar to Instagrams's feature that when you keep pressed a picture in a profile, it pops up until you release the screen. I have been looking around and haven't really found an answer. I was trying to work with popovers but they're not allowed in iphone and most of the alternatives use storyboards. Basically the difference from what im looking for and a popoverpresentation is that I want the new screen to cover most of the screen, not from it to come from the button itself, if that makes sense, while I have the screen pressed. So basically does anybody know how to do this in swift using no storyboards? Thank you!

Presenting a iOS Keyboard and Modal TextView Simultaneously

So I haven't found a good answer on how to present the keyboard and a modal textview at the same time in Objective-C. One app I've seen that does this is Phonto in the app store. I'm trying to do the same thing. The cool thing about what they do is the modal view comes down from the top and the keyboard from the bottom with similar animation. Also, with an app that does this, I've been wondering how they would use auto layout to compensate for the keyboard. Does anyone know how to help me accomplish this?

Any help would be very appreciated.

iOS 8 - UIKeyboard hide auto-correct ribbon

I'm looking to programmatically minimize the auto-correct ribbon found in iOS 8. Minimize meaning achieving the same effect as tapping and sliding the auto-correct ribbon down to hide/minimize it. I know how to remove it completely with _myTextView.autocorrectionType = UITextAutocorrectionTypeNo; - but this does not give the option to pull it back up if the user still wants it.
I haven't been able to find much about it. When I search for ...
hide autocorrect ribbon ios 8 sdk
Not much is returned of value. I've tried variations of that search but to no avail. Does anyone know if it's possible to do this?
Thanks in advance.
Currently i said no. Apple likes to give those kind of setting to the user only; not for developers. If you really need it off, you would have to design/create a Custom Keyboard.

IOS prev/next button close keyboard unexpectedly

I'm currently using PhoneGap (Cordova) to build an App on iPad/iPhone.
One of my page in the app (in html/css/js), have more than 100 input type Number.
When i use finger to target each of them, it's working like a charm.
But when i use the prev/next button from IOS Keyboard, sometime, i don't know why, keyboard slide to down and when i try to open it again with targeting a input with my finger keyboard just blink... Impossible to fixe it without a scroll to release all event.
I've clean my code, refactored some part, look on google and stackoverflow if someone had the same problem but i found nothing...
Did someone know if it's a UIWebView problem ? Or phoneGap? or something else?
Thank's for reading.
If you are happy to just remove the next/previous buttons from your app entirely, the new Phonegap/Cordova 2.6.0rc1 has made this incredibly simple.
In your config.xml file, just set the HideKeyboardFormAccessoryBar preference to true.
In order for those two buttons to work you need to specify their behavior and it seems that it is not specified. Made some research and I think you have two options. Either you get rid of the next/previous buttons at all like explained here or you override textFieldShouldReturn: in a way similar to what is described in this post.

User cannot bring up keyboard when tapping in uitextfield

I have a user who cannot bring up the keyboard when she taps in the textfield of my iPad app. There are over 100 users who have no trouble doing this, and I cannot find a way to reproduce her problem (I've observed everything working correctly on 12 different devices). She insists that she has tapped in the text field and that nothing happens. Has anyone experienced a similar issue?
I welcome your thoughts on this one. Thanks!
UPDATE: Another user has just reported a similar problem. While initially I thought this may be a PEBKAC, but since two independent people are having the same issue, that is becoming less likely.
Does she have long fingernails? Does she tap with her index finger, but allow her middle finger to touch the screen at the same time? Does she drag a bit when she taps?
Can somebody else using her device get the keyboard to appear?
I wouldn't consider it a code problem until you eliminate user error.
If it is a code problem, check that some other view isn't overlapping your textfield and intercepting touches.
Does she have a Bluetooth keyboard connected?
From one of the users:
I updated the software from 3.2.2 to
the latest version 4.1.1 and did a
firmware update. The app works fine
now!
Odd, since I back tested it, but at least the problem is resolved at last.
UPDATE: The second user also confirms that this solution worked. I'd love to hear if anyone else experienced similar issues.
