1. Swift Coding:
Swift was invented last year and it broke into the market with a whole new set of frameworks and methodologies. Since then, it has become a favorite programming language of developers; much talked about amongst them; as it is both; system language as well as an application language. It lets developers write reliable codes with the help of Xcode tools. This language is now widely being used for developing applications for iOS, WatchOS, and tvOS and the same has been predicted to continue in the entire year of 2016. In fact, it has been anticipated that Swift will replace Objective C, of course for the good. Also, it has been heard that Swift 2 has been released with even more developer-friendly features as compared to phone app development and ionic development.
2. Free Apps for All:
As we know people tend to download free apps more than the paid ones. As per the research, more than 75 percent of apps are free and the number is going to be increased to more than 90 percent in the year 2016. The in-app purchases would be the revenue drivers. So, most of the iPhone apps will be free by the end of this year, so that maximum people can download and use them.
3. iBeacon for Geolocating:
Apple has introduced iBeacon to develop smarter applications that show location. The iOS app developers can build even smarter and better eCommerce and mCommerce apps using this feature. However, this year they are going to focus on incorporating this feature in iPhone apps in such a way that it results in lesser draining of battery.
4. iOS9 and App Security:
As very few iOS9 apps were secured, Apple has asked the developers to strengthen the security features; especially in the apps where personal data has to be shared. This will be strengthened even more in iOS10.
