Tapping on pages dots

[EralpB]

my personal taste: page dots shouldn't be working on onboarding, its already only 4-5 pages and it is in a logical sequence, so I set userInteractionEnabled to false for that control.

@EralpB, I would tend to agree. I will take care of this over the weekend.

Page controls are a core element of the iOS UI. They are build for instances like onboarding. The user must know how many pages he has to go through. It might be 2 or 3 or 8.

If there is an option to enable / disable page controls that would come in very handy. Especially with the added option for a close button / text somewhere in the screen. Usually a X is places on the left upper corner or a text on the bottom. That would add a lot to usability and it is what Apple suggests for onboarding processes.

Use a page control when it’s more important to show users how many views are open than it is to help them choose a specific view. A page control is designed for apps in which each view is a peer of every other view.

@Titanas0 I'm not planning on removing the page control, just making it not inter-actable. Also, Onboard already has a built-in mechanism for skipping. See the allowsSkipping, and skipButton properties on the OnboardingViewController class.
