Hi Dan, this feature is very high on our priority list. Internally, we call it "fine grain notifications".

Until this feature is released, you could achieve many of the same results by keeping an NSDictionary of changes as they happen. For example:

@interface ToDoItem : RLMObject
@property NSString *uuid;
@property NSString *name;
@end

@implementation ToDoItem : RLMObject
@end

@interface ToDoListViewController : UITableViewController
@property (nonatomic, strong) RLMRealm *realm;
@property (nonatomic, strong) NSMutableDictionary *changes;
@end

@implementation ToDoListViewController : UITableViewController

- (void)viewDidLoad {
    [super viewDidLoad];
    // Set realm notification block
    __weak typeof(self) weakSelf = self;
    [RLMRealm.defaultRealm addNotificationBlock:^(NSString *note, RLMRealm *realm) {
        NSLog(@"added: %@\nremoved: %@", weakSelf.changes[@"added"], weakSelf.changes[@"removed"]);
        // Process changes (animate insertions, deletions, reorderings, etc.)
        weakSelf.changes = [NSMutableDictionary dictionary]; // reset the changes dictionary
    }];
}

- (void)addTodoItemWithName:(NSString *)name {
    [self.realm beginWriteTransaction];
    ToDoItem *todoItem = [ToDoItem new];
    todoItem.name = name;
    todoItem.uuid = [[NSUUID UUID] stringValue];
    [self.realm addObject:todoItem];
    [self.realm commitWriteTransaction];
    [changes[@"added"] addObject:todoItem.uuid];
}

- (void)removeItemWithUUID:(NSString *)uuid {
    [realm beginWriteTransaction];
    [realm deleteObject:[[ToDoItem objectsWhere:@"uuid == %@", uuid] firstObject]];
    [realm commitWriteTransaction];
    [changes[@"removed"] addObject:uuid];
}

@end

Note that this is a contrived example, but it should give you a sense of the approach. If there are several threads reading/writing to the realm simultaneously, you'd need to be a little safer with how you use the changes NSMutableDictionary.

Great, thanks for the response. Do you think "fine grain notifications" will make it into the 1.0 release?

Certainly.
