How to download video from url and save it in to document directory in iOS

Answer 1

You can use the NSURLConnection method sendAsynchronousRequest:queue:completionHandler:.

That one method will download an entire file into an NSData object and call your completion handler method once it's done.

If you can write a app that requires iOS 7 or later, you could also use the new NSURLSession API. That offers a lot more features.

If you search using those terms you should be able to find tutorials and sample apps illustrating both APIs.
