Default InAppSettings

InAppSettings

InAppSettings is an open source iPhone and iPod touch framework for displaying an in app version of the settings from the Settings.bundle.

There has been a lot of debate over whether an app's settings should be in the app or in the Settings app. InAppSettings is an open source framework determined to remedy this situation once and for all by easily allowing developers to have the same settings in the Settings app in in their app. InAppSettings uses the same Settings.bundle so there is no duplication of files or work. Simply add InAppSettings to the app's project and call it's view controler from code or Interface Builder and you're done! The InAppSettings wiki contains a full guide, including example code, for adding InAppSettings to an iPhone or iPod touch app.

Features:
  • 100% re-implementation of the look and functionality of the Settings app.
  • Easily add InAppSettings to any navigation controller from code or Interface Builder, InAppSettings can also be displayed as a modal view.
  • Support for all versions of the iPhone and iPod Touch OS, 2.0+.
  • Support for settings language localization.
  • InAppSettings contains a class method for initializing all the user defaults in the Settings.bundle.
  • InAppSettings adds additional functionality to the Settings.bundle by adding optional values for in app titles and opening urls.
  • Sample project that demonstrates how to use InAppSettings from code, Interface Builder and a modal view.
InAppSettings was developed by InScopeApps {+} and is distributed under the MIT license so it can be used in free or comercial apps.

This looks really good.
Might be an idea to create a Github project as well for us, the git users ;)

Agreed. I always thought that putting app settings under the Settings control panel was wrong, because people must be taught to look there. It's confusing, and complicated.
