Coders, Im thinking this might be easy but I'm struggling with my friend google. I basically want a UIAlert to appear when my app is first launched with a T&C that the user must accept to be able to carry on. If the don't, then it will exit the app (exit(0);) If the agree i just want it to carry on as normal however. i want it to store the fact that they agreed so it doesn't pop up again next time they come in the app. Would it have to be done with core data and a DB holding the one field? Thanks Steve Title Comments Coders, Im thinking this might be easy but I'm struggling with my friend google.

I could be wrong, but I think that might be a problem for your above idea. -Chris Comments I don't think Apple will let an app close itself?

Please refer to the attached screenshot/s for reference. The iOS Human Interface Guidelines specify, "Always Be Prepared to Stop iOS applications stop when people press the Home button to open a different application or use a device feature, such as the phone. In particular, people don’t tap an application close button or select Quit from a menu. To provide a good stopping experience, an iOS application should: Save user data as soon as possible and as often as reasonable because an exit or terminate notification can arrive at any time. Save the current state when stopping, at the finest level of detail possible so that people don’t lose their context when they start the application again. For example, if your app displays scrolling data, save the current scroll position." It would be appropriate to remove any mechanisms for quitting your app. Comments Here's a sample Apple rejection for using a UIAlert to exit the app: We found that your app includes a UI control for quitting the app. This is not in compliance with the iOS Human Interface Guidelines, as required by the App Store Review Guidelines.

Instead of quitting the app, have a Cancel button, which then pops up the Alert plugin screen. -- Niraj Comments Try using the Login plugin or the Voucher plugin as a starting point.

May have to modify a wee bit to suit your needs. https://www.buzztouch.com/plugins/plugin.php?pid=4D33266692A1722ECF4097A --Niraj Comments Another option is to use the Launch Tutorial plugin.
