Detect iOS device type

Question

In my application (written in Objective-C), how do I detect if the device is an iPhone, iPad, or iPhone5?

if([[UIDevice currentDevice]userInterfaceIdiom] ==          


        

Answer 1

- (id)initWithNibName:(NSString *)nibName bundle:(NSBundle *)nibBundle {
if ([[ UIScreen mainScreen ] bounds ].size.height == 568 ) {
nibName = [NSString stringWithFormat:@"%@_568", nibName];

}

if (UI_USER_INTERFACE_IDIOM() == UIUserInterfaceIdiomPad) {
nibName = [NSString stringWithFormat:@"%@_iPad", nibName]; {

}

if (self = [super initWithNibName:nibName bundle:nibBundle]) {
}

return self;
}

The first statement checks weather the device you have has the iPhone 5 Screen.

The Second checks weather you're using a iPad.

The third returns the normal xib for the iPhone 4s and prior.

Please note, to make this work you'll have to create 3 different XIB's, all with a different suffix.

ViewController.xib

ViewController_568.xib

ViewController_iPad.xib
