Using iOS as a student

As a student I find using iOS really useful and easy to use.  I currently have an iPhone 6 running iOS 11.  With this device I have access to many different applications and features i can use to assist me in college.  When working from home I use One Drive to save files online  if I  ever loose my usb stick.  From my device I can view documents my lecture puts up on Learn Online  instead of having to print them off I can use my device to ready them and save them on it. When creating a mind map I used the coggle app when on the go if I taught of a new change I wanted to make for my blog.  Because of the touch screen capabilities that iOS offers I can easily work on projects that require planning with the options Apple offers.

Tools needed to build an iOS app

Why develop iOS apps ? They are small compact apps that a person from beginner to experienced can work with.  They are simple to work with and understand. They do what you design them to do.

This is free to do and by doing so will allow you to download Xcode. Next step after registering is to install Xcode on your device.  This is the IDE ( integrated development environment) used by apple to work with iOS.  Xcode can also be used for tvOS and the macOS. From this interface you can start planning out the different parts of your app and writing the code.  Xcode supports various types of programming languages such as c , c++ and python.

A prominent feature : the iOS store

Every iOS device has the app store installed on the device.  In 2008 on the 10th of june the app store opened with over 500 applications available.  Today we have accsess to over 2.2 million apps. Through the app store users can download and purchase various apps that other users have created and shared.  All of these apps are developed using Apple's iOS software development kit.  Even the Apple watch has the ability to use the app store and download any of it's various apps.  As an app devleoper you have the option to monetize an app you make.  You and choose from free, free with in app purchases or paid.
