Pixelated images on iPhone Apps?

My iPhone pictures on apps like Facebook, Instagram, etc.. are appearing pixelated/low quality or in blocks?? I've never had this happen before and it's really annoying me. My network is usually on E or 3G and I barely use wi-fi? Is it my connection or data that is causing this? Something wrong with my iPhone? Please help me on this topic. Thanks!
PS: Nothing is wrong with my camera.

Do a reset (Hold Sleep/Wake and Home buttons about 10 secs or more till Apple logo appears)
Note: You will not lose any data.

IPhone 5 pixelated images in various apps problem- occurred within last 2 months and must be a result of apple network driver update

iPhone 5 pixelated images in various apps problem- occurred within last 2 months and must be a result of apple network driver update
What's the fix?
Tried reset, restart, reboot, reopen of apps same problem

What do you mean by reboot? Do you mean restore? Because if you haven't restored, then that's the next step. You'll need a computer with the latest version of iTunes and a USB connector.

Crop and resize images on iPhone - app recommendations?

Does anyone know of a photo-editing app for iPhone that lets you crop an image and also resize to a preferred pixel ratio?
On my Mac at home I use Photoshop for this (setting the crop-to width at 500 px and then simply cropping the part of the image I want to use), but it would be super-handy if I could load the high-res images onto my iPhone and do it on the move.
I tried the Photoshop app, but although it lets you crop, there doesn't seem to be a resize function.
Any ideas?

Hi Jennifer, I guess It's not possible do what I want directly from iPhone.
My problem is pinch to small size and keep it then and send to Instagram. When I double tap the image enlarge, so I double tap again and the image go back to normal size. When I pinch to small size that I want and leave my fingers the image goes back to regular size.
I'm reading others foruns and I guess I have to use some app to post 3:4 photo, like Squaready. I'm trying and seems It work. It need to resize and crop and make all adjustments.
Thanks for help.

Hi alex_h1!!!
i'm posting some of the images that are pixelated, I haven't noticed but that includes safari too... Here are some screenshots! I thought maybe it was the internet speed but the same thing happens even on wi-fi .

Will images downsize in iPhone app

Dear All,
We're building an iPhone app that uses many images. If I crop the images 1136 x 640 for the iPhone 5 retina display screen size, will the images automatically downsize for the iPhone 4 and 4s phones? We have many images and I would rather include ONLY the highest res images and automatically downsize the images for the older phones -- not enough room to include three sizes. We will probably build a separate app for the iPad. I'm using Dreamweaver CS6. Thanks.

In your scenario, you can just use a regular 2x image and use UIImageView to kick-in and scale-down images 50% during runtime. This will work at the API end and your apps will have no problems getting approved. People do this.
But, the drawback:
You should ideally determine the device resolution at launch and scale down accordingly to avoid untidy or pixelated images
Some smaller graphics will suffer - like buttons, icons, etc... - as Apple doubles pixels in each direction. Considering this, using just a 2x image approach may not be the best way of ensuring 'crisp' images
On the other hand, you could simply use both 1x and 2x images and let the device pick up the image that is optimal, depending on its resolution. While this will certainly result in a larger sized app, it wont be a memory crunch on the device since the API picks up the relevant image and only loads that at runtime. It will not load the other image that is not optimal for the device, depending on where it is run.
On a sidenote, there's a beautiful article here that I think you should read: http://bjango.com/articles/designingforretina/
I want to include as many excellent images in our apps as we can include in the 50 meg size limit
Yes, Apple increased an app-size suitable for 3G download to 50MB from the older 20MB since they knew most existing apps would at least double in size due to the 'retina' optimized images which are twice the original resolution.
However, do note that this 50MB limit applies only for downloading via your cellular operator on 3G/ LTE. Users can still download the app from App Store via Wi-Fi if your app exceeds 50MB. One more thing to consider is that with the data prices going skywards everywhere globally, users will anyway be cautious with download large apps and most of them will use Wi-Fi (I do and I know many of my friends do) when they want to get an app that is considerably larger in filesize.
Trust this helps.

Adobe Air Initiates the wrong launch Image on iPhone 6 - Possible App Rejection by Apple Review Team for all developers

I've opened a bug for this issue as well. I want to ask if anyone experiencing the same issue and has found a workaround. Basically Air Runtime is picking up the wrong launch image when launching on iPhone 6. It defaults to [email protected] instead of the [email protected] iOS 8 picks the correct image but Air Runtime does not. Here is the link for the bug. If this is confirmed, this could result in rejection for all the app developers who optimized their apps for iPhone 6 . It is hard to catch this bug in release mode since the Air Runtime loads pretty fast and it occurs when you device is slow or doing something in the background. You can see it easily on iOS simulator or debug mode. We tried everything for a workaround but we failed.
Bug#3831747 - Adobe Air Initiates the wrong launch Image on iPhone 6 - Possible App Rejection by Apple Review Team for a…

Apple recommends the storyboard/xib option but you can still use launch images as assets in your root. When you open a new project in xcode you can look at Contents.json and see the naming conventions they use for iOS8. We grabbed the new naming convention from here. Also setting up in the application xml the UILaunchImages key works too. Please see the below example. It would be a better solution if Adobe Air refers to xml/info.plist values that the developer sets instead of hard-coded naming conventions.
<key>UILaunchImages</key>
<array>
      <dict>
          <key>UILaunchImageMinimumOSVersion</key>
          <string>8.0</string>
          <key>UILaunchImageName</key>
          <string>Default-667h</string>
          <key>UILaunchImageOrientation</key>
          <string>Portrait</string>
          <key>UILaunchImageSize</key>
          <string>{375, 667}</string>
      </dict>

Two images composition in iphone app

Hi here is what I want to do in my app. Suppose I have two UIImage, the same size. At the beginning, I show the first one. The user start to use their finger touch and move on the screen. For all the locations users touched, I would like to display the correspondent pixels from the second image. How can I do it?
Thanks,
ff

Besides the pixel issue any other reason not to use iphone apps in ipad?

besides the pixel issue any other reason not to use iphone apps on ipad??

There are no technical reasons why you can't use them (unless they are some of the few apps that require full phone capability which you won't be able to install). -If you are happy with either using them in an iPhone sized portion of the screen, or with the pixelated 2x size, then use them. I use quite a few apps from my iPhone and iPod Touch, and I've got used to the pixelisation and I don't really notice it as much as I used to.

How might I deform/warp raster images like in the iPhone app Wobble?

Hello all,
I am very interested in applying the warp/deform effect seen in the iPhone app Wobble (it lets you define regions on a raster image and then deforms those regions as it gets input from the accelerometer or the user's touch as if they had adopted faux soft-body physics) to a game I am making, but I'm not sure how this effect was achieved. Anyone have any advice as to how I might program an analogous effect using Flash and as3?
Thanks,
CCJ

Don't know if it would work with a bitmap image, but this could be interesting.

Maybe some way to use that to wobble the displacement map? I don't know....

IPhone app screen size set up in Photoshop

I'm designing an iPhone app in Photoshop. I want to work in 2X size.
What size should I set the screen up in Photoshop to be able to export UI images and icons accurately?
Should I use an iPhone 5 or iPhone 6 screensize?
These are both 2X png but screensizes are different, therefore UI exported for the @2X size will differ depending on which screensize I first decide to start with.

If you choose File > New and choose the Mobile App Design preset, you'll find the Size menu already lists most recent iPhone screen sizes including the 6 and 6 Plus.
Mylenium's link is very helpful; if you go there and go to Icon and Image Sizes there's a table of dimensions for all of those things.
If you have Photoshop CC 2014, you can set up Generator and Extract Assets to export layers (e.g. button designs) to multiple pixel dimensions automatically. That will be a lot easier and faster than manually sizing/cropping/exporting.

Looking for simple sample of iphone apps without using Interface Builder

I successfully went through the 'iphone app tutorial' and used Interface Builder, but now want to try creating apps without it.
The UI Catalog sample is too complex, but didn't see anything that just had a view and a button or label.
Ideally I want code that doesn't require any IB usage, but I can't tell if that is possible yet...
Anyone have a link to an easy sample?
Or has anyone created a test app themselves and wouldn't mind posting?
I took a stab at creating one and posted it on the "101" forum, but it would be hard for somebody to try and figure out what I was attempting
Thx for any links/___sbsstatic___/migration-images/migration-img-not-avail.png
ps
I really need a good book, especially "cookbook" style

hey dear
I have one solution of your problem
just go to in iphone developer search for FAQ
In faq their is one section how to use prohramming in this you can see
the how to ceate label,button etc.
after that simply add the view or remove theview.

Pixelated images in safari, please help.

Hi everyone,
Hoping someone can help me with a issue i have with my new macbook pro.
When browsing the net, safari and firefox show really pixelated images. I thought it might be my internet connection compressing data or something, but i have tried other computers on the same internet connection and the images show perfect...
So this makes me think its the macbook. I have upgraded snow leopard from 10.6 to 10.6.2 and updated safari, but unfortunately this didnt help my problem. So now i have ended up here, asking you people, coz im out of ideas.
I will include some screen shots so you can see exactly what i mean.
Notice the bad quality images and even on google's banner it is pixelated heaps...
Please help if you can. Its very annoying. Cheers.

Yes, I see the big ugly squares. They are what appears whenever extremely heavy JPEG compression is applied to a low-resolution image tht has relatively large areas of similar colors. Something somewhere is applying such compression to the pages, or portions of them, that you are viewing in your browser(s). Your MBP is not doing that: it can't. Either the page images (or parts of them) are being compressed by the website owners or, if every web page is affected, they are being compressed by your ISP in the process of being transmitted to you, as Gordito suggests. That would greatly increase the speed of page loading, but at the expense of image quality. You wouldn't see the image degradation on an iPhone or cell phone — the screen is too small — but on the MBP's high-resolution display it would be much more apparent, IF the MBP were receiving the signal in the same highly compressed form as the phone. If the MBP receives the same web pages through an ISP that doesn't over-compress them, they'll look the way they ought to look. So if you are receiving these web pages through a cellular ISP rather than through a broadband connection, take the MBP to a wifi hotspot and connect through wifi instead. I bet things will look different then.
Compressing images is something a web browser can't do: a browser just displays the signal that comes to it.

XCode iPhone Apps Won't Compile (or do much of anything really)

Ok so I've got the iPhone SDK installed and I'm just running through the iPhone Dev Center's little starter page, figured I'd start things off by running the MoveMe application. But no dice... I try to compile and XCode just sits there, usually with the progress stuck somewhere between 0% and 25%. No error messages, no status messages, nothin.
Well fine, so I try the Hello World sample project. Same story.
I try to compile a trusty old non-iPhone app. No problems here.
So I uninstall XCode and reinstall w/ the iPhone SDK. Same story, same situation.
I try moving files, making fresh projects, adding garbage code to the main function, but still absolutely nothing changes. I can compile just fine (and it will appropriately complain when I have garbage code in) but if I try to BUILD it just sits there.
An image of my frustration here... this is exactly what I see when I try to compile. And nothing MOVES.
Anyone have any insight into this? I'm still pretty green at XCode, so I'm not even sure where to start looking.

I also have the same issues. I've tried running the sample projects from the iphone developer site with no luck (tried with an ipod touch, with the simulator and no luck in either case :/)
What I have noticed is that it initially hangs on copying one of the assets (a png file in hello world). If I stop it and then try to build after, it hangs on trying to compile the xib file.

Is an iPhone app the best choice for our project?

Dear All,
We are developing a travel tour idea for different locations within the US. Tour content can include video, audio, images and text, as well as maps and locations. We want to make our tours "in-depth" so that people can spend good quality time traveling a short distance and exploring "in-depth" rather than travelling long distances and giving only casual interest to what they see.
I'm new to developing apps for the iPhone and am using Dreamweaver CS5.5 soon to be updated to CS6.
I'm wondering if an app for iPhone and other related media like Android is really the way to go because of the limited content and screen size available. I can envision our tours being utilized in many other formats, including iPad, Interactive PDF, as travel e-books or through an interactive website. Our goal is to sell our apps, not give our material away for free. PDF would be my preferred format, but I know that PDF is easily transferred for free among users and would probably not give us much profit.
Any thoughts out there on what the best format for our project might be, or should it include ALL of the above formats? App creation for the iPhone is a rather complicated process, so that's why I'm wondering if after all of the work that you have to put in to create an iPhone app, if that is ultimately my best choice.
I would appreciate any thoughts or advice, or any questions you might have. I'm working on a Mac Pro with CS5.5 Master Collection soon to be updated to CS6

hi,
It depends on your requirement. Base on my experience, VM or website all could meet your requirement. From your description, You could use azure website to host your php website (http://www.windowsazure.com/en-us/documentation/articles/web-sites-php-configure/).
And you could use website auto scale feature in the future. I suggest you could see their comparison (http://www.windowsazure.com/en-us/documentation/articles/choose-web-site-cloud-service-vm/
Hope it helps.

Will

If you can't download 6D images to iPhone

Just got my 6D last week. Love it! Excellent implementation of WiFi to iOS devices (iPhone and iPad). Only a couple of pushes to establish connection after the first pairing.
But, I had a problem at first: From the iPhone I could control the camera, view all images on the SD card and email small, medium, large or full size images with no problem. But, I couldn't save images to iPhone Camera Roll. If I hit the SAVE icon, it would just give me a BUSY icon forever and would not save.
THE PROBLEM: Emailed and called Canon, but they had no idea except to delete and reload the EOS REMOTE App which didn't help. However, a hint from another website identified the problem. When I first connected the iPhone and EOS 6D, I accidentally hit "NO" when asked to "allow the 6D to access my camera roll". I instinctively don't allow most apps to access location services, contacts or camera roll until I'm familiar with the app. In this case it keeps EOS REMOTE from saving photos, and no error message.
To FIX THIS: On your iPhone, go to SETTINGS/PRIVACY/PHOTOS/EOS REMOTE and turn access to ON.
Immediately started working like a champ.
Great camera. Great app.

i have looked for a week and this is the answer that worked, thanks. just change the location of the download to a local drive not a server. the music did download but the video would not.
