CustomBadge 2.0 – Retina Ready, Scalable, light reflex, …

Quick: What is CustomBadge? CustomBadge is an Objective-C based component to create customized Badges for any given View.

Because of the increased demand I decided to refine my little iOS-Component CustomBadge.

Meanwhile I have an iPhone with Retina Display for quite a long time and
support for the high-resolution Display was the most wanted feature.
CustomBadge 2.0 is now satisfying this request.

In addition CustomBadges are now scalable and you can add this well-known
Apple-like light reflex on the top.

Here you'll find an easy to understand example project.

PS: Of course ... CustomBadge is still for free and always will be.

Here is an example hi-res screenshot:

  1. Hey, thanks for this awesome class.

    You should setUserInteractionEnabled:NO as default for the customBadge, as it is now the badge blocks an underlying button.

    Cheers

    • I’d like to leave the choice to the developer. Maybe somebody wants to use the CustomBadge-Object as the “Button”.

  2. Thank you very much, really a great work. Why don’t you put the code on GitHub?

  3. Hi! thank you for the class its incredible!
    I need add the badge to an UIButton, is this possible?

    Thank you!

  4. Thanks. Awesome. Just a tip (which you may already know)… In the sample code, you use [customBadge setFrame:...] to position the badge. Since the height and width aren’t changing, you can simplify and just use [customBadge setCenter:...]

  5. Can’t wait to try it! …but I don’t see the download link?

  6. Thanks a lot for sharing such awesome component! ;)

  7. Thank you~~I’m looking for this and you helped me to solve my problem~

  8. will this be accepted on the Apple App Store?

  9. Nice! Is there a way to add it to the button instead of adding it to the view?
