Abstract

It’s hard to find an app that doesn’t rely on networking in some way. It might need to get updated data, connect with online leaderboards, or just receive a news feed of some sort. In Chapter 10 you used online data within the Map View, and you’ll build on that experience in this chapter. You’ll enlist a “Web View” control to provide embedded browsing functionality and learn to use the underlying networking APIs to build an app that pulls data off the Internet.
