Tab bar issue for iPad app

I'd like to display what looks like a vertical tab bar at left side as in, for example, Twitter app for iPad:

Twitter

  1. Is that a UISplitViewController with a UITabBar within its left side?
  2. Is it a tab bar with vertical orientation (if that is possible, I couldn't find such property in UITabBar class...)?
  3. Is it a custom tabBar-like control?
  4. I've read some posts dealing with this (for instance, iOS vertical tab bar), that were written some time ago, does this issue remain the same?

Thanks!

Solution

  • Custom tabbar controls are available. I think this will fit with your requirements.
