I enabled iCloud in my iOS app and on first launch of the app the app freezes for about 5 seconds when i press on any view in the app. I followed this tutorial to enable iCloud in my app and synchronize data using core data. I did not have this problem before adding iCloud synchronization. This only happens on first launch, not on other launches of the app. iCloud synchronization does occur. The problem is the app freezing.
Here is the code that manages the synchronization in my app delegate.
- (NSURL *)applicationDocumentsDirectory
{
return [[[NSFileManager defaultManager] URLsForDirectory:NSDocumentDirectory inDomains:NSUserDomainMask] lastObject];
}
- (NSPersistentStoreCoordinator *)persistentStoreCoordinator
{
/*if (persistentStoreCoordinator == nil) {
NSURL *storeURL = [NSURL fileURLWithPath:[self dataStorePath]];
persistentStoreCoordinator = [[NSPersistentStoreCoordinator alloc] initWithManagedObjectModel:self.managedObjectModel];
NSError *error;
if (![persistentStoreCoordinator addPersistentStoreWithType:NSSQLiteStoreType configuration:nil URL:storeURL options:nil error:&error]) {
NSLog(@"Error adding persistent store %@, %@", error, [error userInfo]);
abort();
}
}
return persistentStoreCoordinator;*/
