How to Create Audio Player in Objective C ?

AUDIO PLAYER in Objective-C

An audio can be played in iOS app using class AVAudioPlayer  that provides playback of audio data from a file or memory.

(Using Xcode 8 for iOS 10)

Follow the below steps to build an Audio playing App:

Step 1: Create a Single View Application

Next, enter product name as AudioPlayerDemo and select language as Objective-C. 

Step 2: Firstly, add any audio file into the project by simply drag and drop method (make sure below selected option on RHS image should be checked).  

Step 3: Now, just go to main.storyboard and set a button named Play Audio onto the controller. 

Also, set property of Action connection for the Play Audio button.

Step 4: Go to ViewController.h file and import AVFoundation Framework. Also create instance variable of AVAudioPlayer.

Code will look like:- 

#import <UIKit/UIKit.h>
#import <AVFoundation/AVFoundation.h>

@interface ViewController: UIViewController
{
      AVAudioPlayer *audioPlayer;
}
-(IBAction) playAudio: (id)sender;

Step 5: In ViewController.m file, type the below code in the curly braces of button method.

NSString *path = [[NSBundle mainBundle] pathForResource:@"audio" ofType:@"mp3"];

NSURL *url = [NSURL fileURLWithPath: path];

audioPlayer = [[AVAudioPlayer alloc] initWithContentsOfURL: path error: NULL];
[audioPlayer play];

Code will look like:-

#import "ViewController.h"

@interface ViewController ()

@end

@implementation ViewController

- (void)viewDidLoad {

    [super viewDidLoad];

    // Do any additional setup after loading the view, typically from a nib.

}

- (void)didReceiveMemoryWarning {

    [super didReceiveMemoryWarning];

    // Dispose of any resources that can be recreated.

}

-(IBAction)playAudio:(id)sender{

    NSString *path = [[NSBundle mainBundle]

                      pathForResource:@"audio" ofType:@"mp3"];

    audioPlayer = [[AVAudioPlayer alloc]initWithContentsOfURL:

                   [NSURL fileURLWithPath:path] error:NULL];

    [audioPlayer play];

}

@end

Step 6: Run the App 

Enjoy Music 😇
