Warner Bros was published a year ago a promo iPad application for the movie "SHERLOCK HOLMES: A GAME OF SHADOWS". The app is free and one can download it here: https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/sherlock-holmes-game-shadows/id515031420?mt=8
I think that the interface of it is brilliant (with the parallax scrolling and the fade in/ fadeouts of the background photos etc) and a similar interface would be very suitable for an app I am planning to design.
I would like to ask if you have any idea on what tools they might have used to create it (e.g. is it scroll views one on top of another, is it cocoa2d).
Any hint would be highly appreciated!
I think it's HTML 5. Maybe something like PhoneGap.

I'm creating an alarm app. How to do the alarm app as same in default iphone alarm?
I want to do the same as in the image.
Please give me a suggestion I'm new to iOS.
SampleImage
This are called Table Views and you can find how to work with them here
Then you need to learn how to work with Custom Table View Cells you can find it here
UI is easy and you can find some tutorials for it on this site
The only most important thing that you need to know about is audio sessions. Please check the audio session programming guide
Audio session is important because you need to manage your alarm when app is in background/some other sound is playing like cases.

I need to write supersimple iPhone application. It contains the list of buttons and if the user clicks one of these buttons, the application opens a new view with image.
My problem is that a lot of tutorials/books was created 2-3 years ago and I can't learn in parallel Objective C and understand compiler's changes.
What will be better for my "buttons" menu? What can I read about it? Help pls
Just look at storyboards tutorials, and you won't even need Objective-C for that kind of app.

I have an app in progress that requires communication between two already identified users (not messenging or SMS). The data is persisted remotely however the UI needs to be dead simple . Is there a iMessage type view controller that is available that i can use? I really like the one I have attached below, just not sure how to get it or even if someone has better ideas?
There are a lot of pre-made bubble controls:
AcaniChat
PTSMessagingCell
SSMessagesViewController
UIBubbleTableView
There are also some you can purchase at CocoaControls.

I've already released several app-books for children and the number of books is quite big.
What I want to do is create a book-stand (like news stand in iOS) and get the book together.
I think there is no way to get my apps in one app(the book-stand...) so I'm trying to remake all my previous work(the app-books) and create new app(book stand).
However, each app-book has its own interactive objects so I have no idea how to do this.
Is there any good document or any tips for this?
Can your books be made via iBooks Author? How are they interactive? If you have to go down the custom store route, I would look at epub and HTML5.
Check out the Baker Framework or HPub. Also check out various interactive PDF SDKs out there.

Is there a guide / book about custom control development for iOS? All the books I've found don't go beyond using UIKit builtin controls.
As #petert wrote, Cocoa Controls is a great resource, but my favourite is by far iDev Recipes (even though it's not updating that often anymore). Check also http://maniacdev.com/, many open source libraries/projects can be found and it gets updated regularly. Ray Wenderlich has also many nice tutorials - scroll down to "Graphics and Animation".
EDIT: I just saw that #Jano suggests idevrecipes as well, sorry for doulbe posting
