UICollectionView - replicate Photos.app functionality
ios, uicollectionview, uicollectionviewcell
Solution
It is the second suggestion - two different layouts.
I'd recommend checking the almost identical example in iOS6 by Turorials book (paid content, but probably worth it in your case).

Problem
I'm trying to create a UICollectionView that behaves like the photos.app on the iPad (pinch to group and expand). How do you think photos.app is built? - Is it one UICollectionView with one layout, and the pinch just does a batch update and moves cells in to sections? - Or is it one UICollectionView with two different layout? - Or the last option, could it be two UICollectionViews? What do you think is the best approach? Thanks
