A good majority of my interfaces are based on UITableViews of some form. Used them for forms, navigation, etc. IB doesn't help me model up some of the fairly static data sources I return. I end up getting 90% of my apps done without touching IB for that reason. I'll use IB occasionally for some custom views but since I'm using dinking around with the CALayer level adding shadows effects, and handling rotation animations and resizes in custom ways it usually gets in the way. I honestly never feel like touching for a lot my stuff. I also do a lot of custom views and the designer doesn't help me manage those as well. Before XCode 4, I could write IB plugins but those were removed in 4, so more and more I'm finding less use for it. One neat trick though is that I'll create NIBs and run Nib2Objc to generate code that I'll fix up as needed: https://github.com/akosma/nib2objc https://github.com/akosma/nib2objc
