BluEnt is anticipating the following trends to be hot cakes and their know-how USPs for the experts:
2017 iOS Development Trends: Swift Coding
The Swift Code is a multi-paradigm, compiled programming language developed by Apple for creating mobile applications in iOS. Swift has amassed huge popularity amongst app developers because of its coding methodologies and versatile frameworks. You can write reliable codes with Swift using Xcode tools IDE. With Apple making Swift open sourced in 2015, the number of adapters using the code is gradually increasing.BluEnt’s in-house iOS app development team in USA works on Swift to create custom mobile apps for business.

Swift will definitely emerge as the preferred development language, replacing C++.”

The last year saw growing adaptation of location based mobile application development by small and medium businesses. Location based services provide customers with product and service information, help in comparing prices and facilitate m-commerce. The iOS app developers predict that the app development will focus more on using Augmented Reality and GPS, as in the case of Pokemon Go in 2016. Applications such as 3D games will also be on the exploratory radar of iOS app developers.2017 iOS Development Trends: IoT integration in apps
