Technology never ceases to astonish us all. There have been numerous advancements that have caused problems in the mobile app development industry. What began as user engagement applications have developed into real-time interaction apps. The Internet of Things (IoT), virtual reality (VR), and augmented reality (AR) are the most talked-about technologies, and they will undoubtedly shape iOS app development trends in 2020.
Apple has been at the peak of innovation since its founding. WWDC is one of those events that all developers look forward to, and this year's conference was no exception. Apple revealed some of the most important factors that will influence mobile app development trends in the future.
As a developer, you must now keep up with all of these trends and adjust your development tactics accordingly. People's minds immediately turn to the iOS operating system when it comes to safer mobile apps, making it the world's most popular operating system. iOS is the industry leader in terms of mobile app development and innovation, as it is one of the most well-known and famous mobile platforms available.
Why Should You Consider Developing an iOS App?
When it comes to developing a mobile app, businesses want to make money. If you want a large number of people, Android app creation is the way to go, but if you want more income, iOS app development is the way to go.
Apple is poised to influence the mobile application development market with the release of a new version of iOS, which includes some intriguing improvements announced at Apple's WWDC 2020. The following are some of the most compelling reasons to design an iOS app:
The Most Profitable Operating System - iOS apps are chosen by leading experts because they have more in-app purchases, which helps you grow your business and earn more money.
Better Results and a Business-Oriented Approach – For increased productivity, sales, and customer pleasure, top-tier business owners pick iOS app development. iOS apps are increasingly business-oriented thanks to improved capabilities and unique functionalities.
Secure Transactions & High Security - Any business's primary priority is security. iOS provides organizations with a high level of security, making it an excellent choice for any company, particularly those in charge of securing sensitive data.
Provides High-Quality Apps — When it comes to developing high-quality apps, companies frequently resort to iOS application development. It provides unrivaled quality in all app categories.
App Development Trends to Watch
- Make app security a top priority:
Since the beginning of app creation, developers have made it a priority to keep hackers out of users' personal areas. Following the release of iOS 13, developers are now required to include ATS - App Transport Security in every app they develop.
- Combining augmented reality with virtual reality:
Apps on iOS will now be able to see the virtual world's face. With the integration of AR and VR technology, developers may build real-time applications that have been shown to improve user trust and experience. Building standalone AR apps is no longer a concern for developers thanks to the introduction of ArKit. AR-VR applications include Dance Reality and Houzz, to name a few.
- Siri's mighty voice:
iOS app developers can now include enhanced Siri in their creations. According to Apple's announcement at WWDC 2019, Siri's new voice has a unique touch and the option to tailor conversations, which feels natural.
- Pay with Apple:
As already said, one of the primary drivers for iOS apps is security. Developers can now easily incorporate in-app payments with Apple Pay, which is all-new and more secure. The platform is not only safe, but it also eliminates the need for the user to save personal information. Furthermore, it is projected that overall payments made via Apple's app will increase by 65 percent. As a result, developers are interested in using this digital wallet.
- Swift Version 5:
Swift 5 was released about two months ago by Apple. It integrates with IOS 13 as a standalone framework to improve the features and performance of produced apps. Because the programme is Linux compatible, developers may easily expand and improve their knowledge base to include Swift 5 in their apps.
- IoT and wearables:
According to Statista, by the end of 2020, the world will have roughly 31 billion networked gadgets. This is terribly incompetent. With such widespread adoption, iOS application developers must take the initiative and invest in these technologies in order to create apps that can withstand technological developments. Apple's HomeKit is one such software that was released to publicly highlight the prevalence of IoT-enabled technology.
- Business Development:
Enterprise development is still one of the most significant types of development, and iOS engineers like it. App developers prefer iOS for scalable enterprise development because it offers a better user experience, higher security, and increased productivity.
- ML's Core Is Rising:
ML is one such framework that has recently gained a lot of traction. Where specific Artificial Intelligence applications have made an appearance in the app creation phase, we may expect ML norms to take priority over the above to create unique apps that take advantage of advanced technology.
- Big Information:
Big data Solutions is another topic that will accelerate application development in 2020. The aforesaid integration aids developers in creating powerful and scalable iOS apps, which fuels the growth of both the app and the associated business.
Conclusion:
Apple is rapidly expanding, scanning practically every technology and incorporating it into almost every gadget it produces. We're halfway into 2019, and we're eager to see what the future of the year has in store for users all over the world.
