I try to develop an iOS app which need a lot of network calls...

I see that there is few iOS classes provide in the SDK.

Before to start I would like to know if there are any libraries or framework which stand out of the crowd? Or can you just recommend me the most used?

I've made some research on internet and I found two frameworks MKNetworkKit and ASIHTTPRequest. Anybody know them? Are they efficient?

Thank you.

Use AFNetworking.

However ASIHTTPRequest was also one of the best Framework to manage Network Call but now it's not that much in use.

Even the Developers of the ASIHTTPRequest says :

A little update: I've actually really enjoyed using AFNetworking, and in many ways it's considerably better (probably not the right word: 'refined', maybe) than ASI. That said, you shouldn't go into it expecting a 'like for like' replacement, and there are certain things you may want to consider other options for (Amazon S3, which ASI supported out of the box for example). But I'm generally really pleased, and find it a clear, well documented library. So if you're looking to move from ASI to something else, you really can't go wrong with AFNetworking.

AFNetworking is more refined than ASI. Supportive Question.

REASON:

  1.simple reliable and functional.
  2.easy to handle post files (ASIFormDataRequest)
