However, if you're hoping that brings increased simplicity of application development to iOS, that isn't Apple's aim. The value to them of unification is to get macOS app into the same exclusivity an app store as iOS. Currently deployment of macOS apps can be through the macOS App store or outside of it. iOS app must be through the App store. Apple wants to gradually migrate the macOS base to the point where they can say macOS apps will only be available through the App store as well. Then they can drive the same developer changes on OSX that they do on iOS and take their same 30% cut. _______________________________________________ use-livecode mailing list use-livecode@lists.runrev.com Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-livecode
