WWDC 2018 also witnessed the birth of Core ML which is apples very own machine learning SDK. This benefits of this would be some great compatibility features that could bring out the best functionalities out of the apple lens, voice assistant siri and ever other update that apple will bring out in the future. Besides that the upgrades and community engagement of swift has made it a hot topic after objective C and has enabled faster deployment of iOS applications besides adding even better to security.

Apple might have rightfully kept in mind the emergence of trends like fintech and IoT and its corresponding system is build rightfully to support any applications that might manage and maintain huge amounts of data. Amidst such demands it is important that your iOS development team be equipped and prepared for any provisions that might be needed to prevent data leakage or any other hazardous threats.

Development Approach

While the iOS community might be your primary focus, it is definitely an added benefit to win the android community which will the perfect victory for your mobile application. What follows such a lucrative but risky offer is the dilemma of undertaking a cross platform development approach or a native iOS development approach. Cross platform development tools like xamarin might have been quick due its extensive code sharing features but have proved highly inefficient when faced with the challenge of building heavy custom and platform specific UI.
