Showing a different navigation controller if it's the first time using the app

Question

The app is going to have a specific 'journey' for new users to follow when they first use the application. This is a separate NavigationController from the TabController which encompases the core app.

I know I can store whether or not someone has been through the process before. My question is where would be the correct place to handle this logic. Would you do it in the AppDelegate within didFinishLaunchingWithOptions . Or within the TabViewController . Or somewhere completely different?

I'm not too sure how I'd handle it within the delegate , it just feels like a cleaner way to do it.

Within the TabViewController , I'd perform a segue to the NavigationController . I don't want there to be any visible transition to the NavigationController .

Typically you implement a first-launch-only screen, or sequence of screens, by presenting one or more modal view controllers if the code logic decides they are needed. Then when you dismiss them, the normal app UI is waiting underneath.
