Quick Example

@implementation AppDelegate

- (BOOL)application:(UIApplication *)application didFinishLaunchingWithOptions:(NSDictionary *)launchOptions
{
    [[Pigeon sharedInstance] enableLocalNotification];
    [[Pigeon sharedInstance] startWithAppleId:@"584296227"];
    
    return YES;
}

- (void)application:(UIApplication *)application didReceiveLocalNotification:(UILocalNotification *)notification
{
    [[Pigeon sharedInstance] openInAppStore];
}

@end

Customize

You can also customize Pigeon as you wish. REMEMBER to set the customizable properties before you call startWithAppleId:;

Manage the latestVersion yourself, so Pigeon won’t fetch it from App Store.

@property (strong, nonatomic) NSString *latestVersion;

The message of local notification.

@property (strong, nonatomic) NSString *updateMessage;

The country code ( @“us”, @“ru” for example ). You should set this code, if your application is not available in all countries.

@property (strong, nonatomic) NSString *countyCode;

The notify interval. Default values is one day.

@property (assign, nonatomic) NSTimeInterval notifyInterval;

One More Thing

Pigeon will post a notification when finding a new version. You can observe it and notify users in the way you prefer, a UIAlertView for example.

[[NSNotificationCenter defaultCenter] addObserver:self selector:@selector(showNewVersionAlertView) name:PigeonDidFindNewVersionNotification object:nil];
