iPhone +35%, but iPad -18%

Apple verkaufte 47,5 Millionen iPhones, ein Zuwachs um 35 Prozent im Vergleich zum Vorjahreszeitraum. Nach Angaben der Investment Bank Canaccord Genuity erzielt Apple 92 Prozent des operativen Gewinns der gesamten Smartphone-Branche. In dem Juni-Quartal begann Apple die Apple Watch auszuliefern, sein erstes neues Hardware-Produkt seit dem Start des iPad im Jahr 2010. Um dem Wettbewerb keinen Vorteil bei dieser neuen Produktkategorie zu verschaffen, würden hier keine Verkaufszahlen veröffentlicht, hatte der Konzern erklärt. Dagegen brach der iPad-Umsatz gemessen an den Stückzahlen um 18 Prozent ein. Golem

Record UI Tests and generate Swift code automatically - run UI Tests from the command line

Apple announced a new technology called UI Tests, which allows us to implement User Interface tests using Swift or Objective C code. Up until now the best way to achieve this was to use UI Automation. With UI Tests it's possible to properly debug issues using Xcode and use Swift or Objective C without having to deal with JavaScript code. Launch the tests from the CLI.

Unidirectional Data Flow Architecture (Redux) in Swift

In this post, I try to explain why using Redux with Swift is better idea [than MVVM]. What is Redux and Unidirectional Data Flow? Redux is a flux implementation but slightly better implementation, it makes your application’s state more predictable. It first came out in Javascript world as a predictable state container for JavaScript apps with the powerful javascript library React. Redux, simply makes your application’s state in single store object. So firing an action from your application/in view’s lifecycle state changes and your reducers for that action generate a new state. Seyhun Akyürek at Medium Replacing Redux in Swift with something better Being a fantastic framework for development doesn’t come without a cost. Every time you update internal state in Redux, the entire interface re-renders. This isn’t a huge deal in most cases. But eventually you might have a situation where one update to state needs to be instantaneous (like using the keyboard shortcut to move f...

Apple Sneaks A Big Change Into iOS 5: Phasing Out Developer Access To The UDID

Apple is making a lot of big changes to its mobile operating system with iOS 5, which is dribbling out in betas for developers ahead of a general release later this year. But there is one big change some developers are just starting to take notice of that Apple isn’t talking about that much. In a recent update to the documentation for iOS 5 (which is only available to registered Apple developers, but a copy was forwarded to me), Apple notes that it will be phasing out access to the unique device identifier, or UDID, on iOS devices such as iPhones and iPads. TechCrunch Solution A: UIDevice-with-UniqueIdentifier-for-iOS-5 Brings back the unique identifier support under iOS 5, it uses the device's mac address in combination with the bundle identifier to generate a new hashed unique identifier. gekitz GitHub Alternate Solution B: Appsfire Announces Open Source UDID Replacement For iOS: OpenUDID It is based on the NSProcessInfo (see globallyUniqueString), but may change ...
