UICollectionView horizontal paging with 3 items

Edit:
Demo link: https://github.com/raheelsadiq/UICollectionView-horizontal-paging-with-3-items

After a lot searching I did it, find the next point to scroll to and disable the paging. In scrollviewWillEndDragging scroll to next cell x.

- (void)scrollViewWillEndDragging:(UIScrollView *)scrollView withVelocity:(CGPoint)velocity targetContentOffset:(inout CGPoint *)targetContentOffset
{

    float pageWidth = 480 + 50; // width + space

    float currentOffset = scrollView.contentOffset.x;
    float targetOffset = targetContentOffset->x;
    float newTargetOffset = 0;

    if (targetOffset > currentOffset)
        newTargetOffset = ceilf(currentOffset / pageWidth) * pageWidth;
    else
        newTargetOffset = floorf(currentOffset / pageWidth) * pageWidth;

    if (newTargetOffset < 0)
        newTargetOffset = 0;
    else if (newTargetOffset > scrollView.contentSize.width)
        newTargetOffset = scrollView.contentSize.width;

    targetContentOffset->x = currentOffset;
    [scrollView setContentOffset:CGPointMake(newTargetOffset, scrollView.contentOffset.y) animated:YES];
}

I also had to make the left and right small and center large, so i did it with transform.
The issue was finding the index, so that was very difficult to find.

For transform left and right in this same method use the newTargetOffset

int index = newTargetOffset / pageWidth;

if (index == 0) { // If first index 
    UICollectionViewCell *cell = [self.collectionView cellForItemAtIndexPath:[NSIndexPath indexPathForItem:index  inSection:0]];

    [UIView animateWithDuration:ANIMATION_SPEED animations:^{
        cell.transform = CGAffineTransformIdentity;
    }];
    cell = [self.collectionView cellForItemAtIndexPath:[NSIndexPath indexPathForItem:index + 1  inSection:0]];
    [UIView animateWithDuration:ANIMATION_SPEED animations:^{
        cell.transform = TRANSFORM_CELL_VALUE;
    }];
}else{
    UICollectionViewCell *cell = [self.collectionView cellForItemAtIndexPath:[NSIndexPath indexPathForItem:index inSection:0]];
    [UIView animateWithDuration:ANIMATION_SPEED animations:^{
        cell.transform = CGAffineTransformIdentity;
    }];

    index --; // left
    cell = [self.collectionView cellForItemAtIndexPath:[NSIndexPath indexPathForItem:index inSection:0]];
    [UIView animateWithDuration:ANIMATION_SPEED animations:^{
        cell.transform = TRANSFORM_CELL_VALUE;
    }];

    index ++;
    index ++; // right
    cell = [self.collectionView cellForItemAtIndexPath:[NSIndexPath indexPathForItem:index inSection:0]];
    [UIView animateWithDuration:ANIMATION_SPEED animations:^{
        cell.transform = TRANSFORM_CELL_VALUE;
    }];
}

And in cellForRowAtIndex add

if (indexPath.row == 0 && isfirstTimeTransform) { // make a bool and set YES initially, this check will prevent fist load transform
    isfirstTimeTransform = NO;
}else{
    cell.transform = TRANSFORM_CELL_VALUE; // the new cell will always be transform and without animation 
}

Add these two macros too or as u wish to handle both

#define TRANSFORM_CELL_VALUE CGAffineTransformMakeScale(0.8, 0.8)
#define ANIMATION_SPEED 0.2

The end result is
