Title: iOS Plus: Imagining a Mac that runs iOS apps Post by: HCK on April 30, 2018, 04:05:14 pm iOS Plus: Imagining a Mac that runs iOS apps
<article> <section class="page"> <p>Inspired by a <a href="https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2017-12-20/apple-is-said-to-have-plan-to-combine-iphone-ipad-and-mac-apps" rel="nofollow">Bloomberg report[/url] that Apple may introduce a way for iOS apps to be converted to run more easily on macOS, a couple of weeks ago I came up with a list of iOS apps that I’d like to see on the Mac (https://www.macworld.com/article/3268413/software/ios-apps-that-need-to-be-on-the-mac.html).</p><p>After Apple’s recent Chicago event to launch the new iPad, Apple CEO Tim Cook spoke to an Australian writer and told him that <a href="https://www.smh.com.au/technology/users-don-t-want-ios-to-merge-with-macos-apple-chief-says-20180416-p4z9t9.html" rel="nofollow">rumors of merging the Mac and iOS weren’t true[/url]. I was maybe ten feet away from them when this happened, and it was a media scrum—not the kind of place where a CEO does anything but restate the existing company line. (In the same conversation Tim Cook literally said “I use everything and I love everything.”) I’m not entirely convinced that Apple’s long-term approach to its platforms is to keep the Mac alive long enough for iOS to evolve so that it’s able to painlessly replace it.</p><p class="jumpTag"><a href="/article/3269372/macs/ios-plus-imagining-a-mac-that-runs-ios-apps.html#jump">To read this article in full, please click here[/url]</p></section></article> Source: iOS Plus: Imagining a Mac that runs iOS apps (https://www.macworld.com/article/3269372/macs/ios-plus-imagining-a-mac-that-runs-ios-apps.html#tk.rss_all) |
