View controller IOS switch between views

I am new at ios programming and I need some help, can't figure out how I am going to switch between two views without firing a button event

I have a splash screen waits for 2 sec then it should go to main view. I don't know how I am going to acquire the main view's reference and navigate to main view!

Any tutorial about switching between views programmatically?

Thanks for your help. Cheers

Start with one of Xcodes default projects, and see how they are setup. They should give you a window, with a main view out of the box.

If you add a Default.png image file to your project, it will automatically be used as a splash screen and displayed upon startup. However it will not be visible for 2 seconds, but rather as long as it takes for the application to start.

If you want it to be displayed longer, you will have to add a UIImageView with the same png image to your mainview, then remove this from your mainview after two seconds.

You can use performSelector:withObject:afterDelay to trigger the hiding of the UIImageView after a period of time. However this goes against Apples design guide, as the splash screen only is meant as a ting for the user to look upon before the application launches.

As for adding new views, I recommend using a UINavigationViewController. Using this enables you to navigate back to the main view, and you also get a nice animation as a transition between the views.

For Splash screen you have to name it Default.png and in appDelegate didFinishlaunchingMethod, you have to add view controller to window. the Default.png is automatically reference as a splash screen. try it out
