IOS displays lock / unlock slider, how is the lock screen?

Question

I try to let users of my application cancel an active alarm using a slider, such as a timer application or iPhone lock screen.

Is this control available to us as developers? If so, what is this name, and do I need to add it programmatically? I do not see it in the interface builder.

Thanks!

You can always try this on cocoacontrols.

This is not a standard control - you need to create it yourself.

However, I think you should be able to customize the slider. You can change the look of this by providing your own graphics, and it should be easy to model the behavior of the lock slider (for example, make it go back to 0 if it doesn't go completely).
