A resolution-independent UIView popover component for iPhone and iPad, written entirely in CoreGraphics and QuartzCore. It displays custom views, titles, or string selection lists via a simple one-line static interface that handles positioning, animation, and memory management.

Use cases

• show a popover with custom content on tap in an iOS app
• display a modal tooltip or menu anchored to a point on iPhone or iPad
• present a list of string options in a popover
• show a calendar or other UIView as a popover with a title
• add lightweight popover UI without storyboards or external dependencies

When to choose

• you are maintaining or building a legacy Objective-C iOS app and need a simple, dependency-free popover
• you want a one-line API that handles positioning, animation, and memory management automatically
• you need a resolution-independent popover drawn purely with CoreGraphics

When to avoid

• you are starting a new project in Swift or SwiftUI, which have native popover and presentation APIs
• you need actively maintained software with recent releases or security updates
• you require guaranteed long-term support, since the project has had no releases since 2016
