You can get the expected total file size in the following callback method of NSURLConnection's NSURLConnectionDataDelegate:

- (void)connection:(NSURLConnection *)connection didReceiveResponse:(NSURLResponse *)response
{
   self.expectedTotalSize = response.expectedContentLength;
}

then in following callback method you can calculate how much data has been received:

- (void)connection:(NSURLConnection *)connection didReceiveData:(NSData *)data
{
   self.recievedData += data.length;
}

And you can use UIProgressView to show current downloading status on the screen.
