Hi David,
Below you will see a link for a video I posted recently on youtube. It’s a simple Fish Facts application on iOS. As my comment at on youtube video says, I had to make some workarounds to simulate a closer look to iOS applications. I could do in much easier and less code using normal FireMonkey components, but it’s just to show that everything is possible.
Anyway, it was just my first application and I done during some free time last weekend.

PS: Next step will be to add edit, delete and insert options.
Nice to see my article / video tutorial linked here. Meanwhile there is also a similar video for the iOS side of things http://www.devia.be/news/article/configuring-delphi-xe2-and-your-mac-to-develop-test-and-deploy-ios-apps/
I’m thinking about creating more Tutorials … so any ideas / suggestions are always welcome.
