This is concept test of iOS 7/8 using a secondary screen on a AppleTV to display content.
It works both in single screen (device only) and multi screen (device + AppleTV)
The AppleTV screen is loaded using a proposed file architecture where it has its own storyboard file.
The app connects to Flickr and downloads the most recent photos from all over the world displaying them on a UICollectionView. If you're not connected to a AppleTV, the app will work as expected. You tap a cell and it displays the content.
If you're on a AppleTV, it will display the full size picture on the big screen and your device will be abel to control it.
Reacts to display connection and disconnection seamlessly.
-
Clone and open this repository with XCode 5/6.
-
Install the pod dependencies using
pod install. Only for the FlickrAPI. -
Run on the simulator or device.
-
To activate the second display:
- Simulator: Menu Hardware > External Displays > Desired screen size (usually 720p)
- AppleTV: Just activate AirPlay and mirror your device's screen. Voilá!
Just fire an Issue.
