4 Things You Must Know about iOS 9

Apple's iOS 9 is not even a year old yet. Check your understanding of this latest operating system with its four important aspects discussed below.



iOS 9

 #1: Deep Linking:  Deep linking has become a standard in iOS 9. Apple has made it simpler to connect applications together, improved the UX and increased reliance on mobile apps (without inducing users to turn to Mobile Web). For instance, you read a movie review on the IMDB app and want to purchase tickets, the Fandango app will bring you straight to the checkout page for the movie.

#2: Connected Devices: Internet of Things is here to rule and there's no chance that it's just a passing fad. This implies that connected devices will continue to be a key consideration for iOS. Apple has ensured that iOS 9 has a number of enhancements that make application development a breeze for devices other than mobiles and tablets.

#3: Enterprise Focus: Apple and Google are both racing to build for enterprises. While there maybe plenty of fish in the consumer pool, both the organizations have their eyes on a bigger prize - enterprise customers. New features like the iPad multitasking support may mean an increase in the use of tablets at work.

#4: Developer Friendly: A number of tools are being released to speed up app development.
A number of new APIs have been added. By releasing and open sourcing Swift2, Apple wants to be the language of choice irrespective of the platform. It is hoped that Swift will also help iOS developers get up to speed with development since its learning curve is not as steep as that for Objective-C.
