iPhone applications, the latest developments and their benefits for your business

Conclusion of WWDC 2020: Updates Impacting Mobile App Development

The Worldwide Developers Conference (WWDC) 2020, hosted by Apple, concluded its events last week. Although this year's event was entirely digital, the new updates announced during the keynote are set to significantly enhance mobile app development.

How WWDC 2020 Will Impact Mobile App Development

iOS 14

As expected, Apple unveiled its latest mobile operating system—iOS 14. This year’s focus is on customization and convenience, introducing new widgets and an App Library. Some argue that Apple may surpass Android in some areas of customization, a domain long associated with Android’s capabilities.

App Library

One major update in iOS 14 is the App Library, which automatically sorts and categorizes apps on a user’s phone based on their function. It places frequently used apps in an easy-to-navigate view. For instance, Facebook and Twitter will be listed under a social media tab, while Apple TV+ and Netflix will fall under entertainment.

Widgets and Customization

iOS 14 will provide users with more widget options, allowing them to move widgets freely around the home screen to meet their needs. One new widget introduced is Smart Stack, which combines multiple widgets into one and displays them intelligently based on the time of day.

Additional Updates

Other updates include Picture-in-Picture for videos, improved Apple Maps with a special view for cyclists, and a real-time Translation app.

Transition to ARM Processors

In a significant decision, Apple CEO Tim Cook announced that Apple will transition from using Intel processors to its own ARM-based Apple silicon for Mac computers. The first Macs with Apple silicon are expected later this year, as part of a transition process anticipated to last about two years. This shift aims to make Macs more energy-efficient, enhancing performance and battery life.

Integration of Macs with iPhone and iPad Apps

Mac computers will be able to run apps originally designed for iPhone and iPad, allowing developers to create apps that work across all Apple devices. Apple’s new operating system, Big Sur, is designed to integrate seamlessly with the latest processors to facilitate this transition.

HomeKit

Apple’s HomeKit platform will use facial recognition technology, enabling users to identify who is nearby via smart doorbells and cameras. Users will also be able to adjust home lighting through this platform. Apple emphasizes security, noting that Home and HomeKit apps use end-to-end encryption to protect customer data. Apple is collaborating with Amazon, Google, and other tech leaders to set up a smart home network, making this technology more accessible.

watchOS 7, tvOS 14, and macOS Big Sur

watchOS 7

Like iOS 14, watchOS 7 focuses on customization by allowing users to create and share custom watch faces. It also introduces sleep tracking and a “Sleep Mode.”

tvOS 14

With the latest updates, Apple aims to enhance the gaming experience by expanding Xbox controller support to include Xbox Elite 2 and Xbox Adaptive controllers. It also introduced a new multi-user feature for Apple Arcade.

macOS Big Sur

macOS Big Sur includes significant updates to key applications like Safari, which now offers a 50% increase in browser speed and improved tab management. macOS Big Sur is available for MacBook (2015 and later), MacBook Air (2013 and later), MacBook Pro (late 2013 and later), Mac mini (2014 and later), iMac (2014 and later), iMac Pro (2017 and later), and Mac Pro (2013 and later).

AirPods Updates

AirPods Pro will feature spatial audio with directional audio filters, providing a surround sound experience from two earbuds. Spatial audio supports 5.1 and 7.1 audio formats.

Benefits of Developing an iPhone App for Your Business

Advanced Data Protection and Processing Systems

Protecting sensitive business data in applications poses a significant risk for Android apps. In contrast, iPhone apps offer robust protection through stringent security measures, including integrated data processing systems, data duplication prevention, and encryption measures.

High-Quality Standards

An iPhone app for business is not complete until it meets the high-quality standards required by the Apple App Store. iPhone users can expect flawless performance and a superb user experience, leading to the development of a large and loyal customer base.

Apps for All Business Needs

Brands of all sizes recognize the advantages of having business mobile apps. iPhone apps, whether custom-designed or ready-made, cater to all business needs and offer higher profitability due to their guaranteed market access and distinctive customer base. If you are looking for companies specializing in mobile app design within the Arab Republic of Egypt or want to know about the cost of developing smart phone apps, we are here to provide full support and answer all your inquiries.

Established Customer Base

Apple boasts a loyal customer base due to the quality and performance of its apps. While 75% of app users are Android users, Apple maintains a dedicated customer base for iOS.

Ideal User Experience

iPhone apps offer an exceptional user experience due to the seamless integration of software and hardware. Comprehensive customer support and app maintenance further enhance user satisfaction.

Low Fragmentation and Easy Testing

Apple typically develops only one major update for its current operating system each year, simplifying the testing process for iPhone apps. In contrast, Android apps must be tested across a variety of devices and OS versions, increasing development time and costs.

Shorter Development Time

iOS apps take approximately 28% less time to develop compared to Android apps with similar specifications, thanks to reduced testing time and device uniformity.

Market Visibility, Profitability, and Customer Loyalty

iPhone apps ensure market visibility, profitability, and customer loyalty, making mobile app development highly beneficial for businesses.

Competition in the iPhone app market remains relatively low, meaning opportunities are still available to capitalize on this promising market.
