How to add animation in View for any view or any Control.

With bellow code you can set animation for any control or any view...

        CATransition *animation = [CATransition animation];

        [animation setDuration:1.0];// Set Duration

        [animation setType:kCATransitionPush];

        [animation setSubtype:kCATransitionFromTop];// set different type of Transition

        [animation setTimingFunction:[CAMediaTimingFunction functionWithName:kCAMediaTimingFunctionEaseInEaseOut]];

        

        [[yourView layer] addAnimation:animation forKey:@"SwitchToView1"];// here you can set any view or any Control For Ex: UITableViewCell

Get Date and Time difference with different format with my custom method

You can get difference with bellow code

   NSString *strDifference = [self getDateDifferencewithTimeDay:yourOldDateString strDate2:[self StringFromDate:[NSDate date]]];

NSLog(@"\n Difference  =====>> %@", strDifference);

 Here i set old string and current string to get difference between that both dates.

Here i use two methods in above code one is getDateDifferencewithTimeDay for get difference between that dates and second is StringFromDate for get data in string format.

-(NSString *)getDateDifferencewithTimeDay:(NSString *)strDate1 strDate2:(NSString *)strDate2{

    NSDateFormatter *formatter = [[NSDateFormatter alloc] init];

    

    NSDate *Date1;

    NSDate *Date2;

    NSString *strAnswer;

    

    [formatter setDateFormat:@"yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:ss"];

    

    Date1 = [formatter dateFromString:strDate1];

    Date2 = [formatter dateFromString:strDate2];

    

    NSTimeInterval timeDifference = [Date2 timeIntervalSinceDate:Date1];

    

    double minutes = timeDifference / 60;

    

    double hours = minutes / 60;

    

    double seconds = timeDifference;

    

    double days = minutes / 1440;

    

    if (seconds < 60) {

        strAnswer = [NSString stringWithFormat:@"%.0f Seconds ago.",seconds];

    }

    else if (minutes < 60){

        strAnswer = [NSString stringWithFormat:@"%.0f Minutes ago.",minutes];

    }

    else if (hours < 24){

        strAnswer = [NSString stringWithFormat:@"%.0f Hours ago.",hours];

    }

    else{

        strAnswer = [NSString stringWithFormat:@"%.0f Days ago.",days];

    }

    return strAnswer;

}

And also this bellow method is for convert NSDate to NSString format

-(NSString *)StringFromDate:(NSDate *)DateLocal{

    NSDateFormatter *dateFormat = [[NSDateFormatter alloc] init];

    [dateFormat setDateFormat:@"yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:ss"];

    NSString *dateString = [dateFormat stringFromDate:DateLocal];

    NSLog(@"Date is HERE  =====>> %@",dateString);

    return dateString;

}

Go to particular parent class from subclass

you can find that particular UIViewController from its navigationController's viewControllers array like bellow...

    for (UIViewController *controller in self.navigationController.viewControllers) {

        if ([controller isKindOfClass:[YourViewController class]]) {

            //Do not forget to import that YourViewController.h

            

            [self.navigationController popToViewController:controller

                                                  animated:YES];

            break;

        }

    }
