iOS multiple step information entry

I am writing an iOS app that requires several pieces of information to be entered. I am trying to do this is the most iOS idiomatic way.

The user must:

My gut instinct was for a wizard with each major item on a separate view, with the shipping details as a form on a single view. However, I don't see any wizard data entry like that in Apple Apps.

What do people consider best? Multiple views as described, or a single table view with disclosure buttons for each major item to navigate to selection/entry screens. In that scenario, should the shipping details be a single table cell on the main page or multiple elements?

A good "wizard data entry" example from Apple is the one you have to use every time iOs is updated. However it is inconvenient to fill any kind of a form this way, using a table view instead is a good way to show relatively simple forms.

If the order of filling in the form doesn't matter, use Calendar app Add event style, if it is important, add/remove sections as user enters/removes the data (similar to Settings > Wi-Fi).
