Summary


We now have JSON data loading into our app. As you can see, going from a plist to a JSON file was not a huge step. Our app is now looking more like an app in the App Store. Over the next few chapters, we will turn our attention to adding features that you might want to use in your app. These features enhance the users' experience, therefore, learning them will be invaluable. Even if the features may not seem like something you want or need, you should become familiar with them because knowing about them and how they work will be beneficial in the long run.

In the next chapter, you will work with the camera and learn how to apply filters and save it to the camera roll.
