sleepForTimeInterval Timeout freezes app

I'm trying to wait X amount of seconds in between actions. When using [NSThread sleepForTimeInterval:3.0]; the app freezes for the set amount of time. How can I timeout without disrupting the main thread?

You can't block the main runloop (which handles user input) and expect your app to remain responsive. Consider using an NSTimer.
