We use the UIProgressView class to depict the progress of a task over time. An example of a progress bar is the one shown at the bottom of the Mail application when it's downloading messages.
The UIProgressView class provides properties for managing the style of the progress bar and for getting and setting values that are pinned to the progress of a task.
For an indeterminate progress indicator—or, informally, a "spinner" — use an instance of the UIActivityIndicatorView class(which we will discuss in a later video).
In iOS 5 and up, we have a lot of customisation possibilities. For example, we can set our own progress image instead of the default blue color indicating the progress. Also we can set the progress tint color and the track image. We can achieve all these thing either graphically directly using the menus provided by Xcode, or programmatically.
