## What it is
AMPopTip is a Swift library for iOS that displays animated popovers pointing to a given frame, with customizable direction, color, border radius, and font. It is designed for subtle UI hints and onboarding popups in mobile apps.

## Use cases

- you want customizable onboarding hints with directional arrows
- you prefer a lightweight Swift library installable via CocoaPods or Carthage

## When to avoid
- you are building with SwiftUI and want native popovers
- you need cross-platform tooltips beyond iOS
- your project requires a maintained library with frequent updates
