I am going to develop custom web services for mobile apps using moodle and referred moodle mobile docs for the same.

I had also referred mobile apps (Moodle Touch, mPage, Mbot and Official Moodle Mobile apps) and Server side ext likes MoMo, MLE-Moodle, Moodbile, iPhone4Moodle. These all are provide a required facility to support mobile platform but support different custom icons for Users, Course, Forums, Event, Calendars etc...

I want to develop simple custom mobile services (API) which are providing moodle(course, users, forum etc...) information to mobile apps and easily supporting to all mobile platform. Anybody help me for the same?

Thanks in advance.

There are standard web services in Moodle already for that exact purpose (the official app uses them).  Why not use those (and help us to extend them where necessary)?  smile

 Thanks for your response.

Yes, these all are the core functions provided by moodle for mobile API. But how can I utilize them. Do you have any sample code? How can I develop custom mobile services which should use on my iphone app?
