iOS 7 dynamic blur effect like in Control Center

Question

I\'m trying to make a controller that will be similar to Control Center in iOS7. From WWDC session #226 I\'ve learnt how to get blurred image with different effects

Answer 1

You can use UIVisualEffect from storyboard.

Drag the Visual Effect With Blur on the storyboard. The desired effect can be achieved by setting alpha of the BACKGROUND COLOR. The subviews should be added to View of Visual Effect View and they are not affected by the background blur.

The Vibrancy effect must be selected in View options above.
