I created an app based on the PageViewController template for iOS5 in XCode 4.2.

I am now trying to make it work for iOS versions prior to 5.0. Here are the problems that I can think of, but I guess they are not the only ones:

  • Storyboards are not available before iOS5, so I would have to recode everything using nibs. Is there a better way?
  • UIPageViewController does not exist before iOS 5... How can I replace it with something similar but that works with older versions?

Lastly if I create an app that is iOS5 only, what is roughly the percentage of the devices that have been updated so far?

Thank you!

No, using nibs is how you work without storyboards.

If you're super hot set on a page curl effect in iOS 4, you could look at

but it would be a lot of work to get it usable. Much easier to just use a simple scroll view or something like that.

Last I heard about a third had upgraded.
