Still on the fence when it comes to iOS application development? It’s no surprise that Apple is considered a premium brand, but the consideration is not without its merits.
If you have an app idea you want developed, consider some of the advantages iOS application development offers.
Security Protocols
If you’re adept at Objective-C language and are planning to build your own app, you can breathe a sigh of relief and code worry-free with Apple’s stringent security protocols. Thanks to their solid app safety measures, your app is less likely to be copied by other developers, whether they’re an Android or iOS app developer.
When your app becomes the next big thing, naturally you’d want to protect your code and your success from getting into the hands of the competition.
iOS Device Compatibility
If you’re unsure whether to target the smartphone or tablet market, know that iOS applications are easy to make compatible across all iOS-run devices, which means to say that creating an app for one device will create the same user experience for other devices.
In addition, sharing data between devices becomes a seamless experience because of the compatibility between different iOS devices. For developers, this saves them precious time and effort.
This is also particularly beneficial for entrepreneurs looking to scale and be in it for the long haul, especially since Apple has also delved into the wearable device segment.
Lucrative Platform
Although iOS now holds less than half of the smartphone market, Apple users have been found to spend more than their counterparts for apps and content, by as much as four times.
In other words, Apple users spend more than four dollars for every dollar that an Android user spends on purchases. Whether it’s through paid downloads or in-app purchases, the revenue distribution for iOS is higher than the competition.
With such a lucrative platform, chances are your investment in your iOS application development will generate higher returns.
