2012 in review: The year in iOS
   




   
Every year since the introduction of the iPhone in 2007 has been a big year for iOS, and 2012 is certainly no exception. Let’s take a stroll down memory lane, recalling the year that was for the iPhone, the iPad, and the operating system that powers them both.
January

Apple kicked off 2012 in party animal style at the Guggenheim Museum in New York City, hosting an event focused on education. There, the company took the wraps off iBooks 2, noteworthy for its support for interactive textbooks, and the free iBooks Author app for creating them. Amazon responded by releasing another 97 Kindle models over the next three days.

Apple also unveiled a program designed to let businesses buy apps in bulk; “norms” like you and me still have to buy our Angry Birds one app at at time, however.

January also saw the annual Macworld | iWorld Conference and Expo—the trade show that goes through name changes the way Cher goes through costumes. Among the Best of Show winners we recognized at Macworld | iWorld 2012 were iOS-friendly products like Adonit’s Jot Touch Bluetooth-enabled iPad stylus, Blue’s Spark Digital USB mic for iPad and Mac, iStopMotion for iPad, the Game Your Video app, PDFpen for iPad, and the TourWrist app for panoramic photo exploration.
