Resize UICollectionView cells after image inside has been downloaded

Question

I\'m building a UICollectionView and my custom cells will contain two labels and one image.

Each image is downloaded asynchronously so I don\'t know it\

To resize collection view cells, you could reload the collection view and return the size of you collection view cells dynamically in the method:

- (CGSize)collectionView:(UICollectionView *)collectionView layout:(UICollectionViewLayout*)collectionViewLayout sizeForItemAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath {
    UICollectionViewCell *cell = [collectionView cellForItemAtIndexPath:indexPath];
    return [cell size];
}

In cases when the cell's size is dynamic, get the cell from the index path and return its size based on the size of the image. I usually create a method for the cell to return a dynamic size, like in the example above. You can use UIImage's size property to help return the size based on the image.
