Developers Must Work Hard For iPhone 5

One of the questions that arise when Apple introduced the iPhone 5 is, whether the phone supports 700 thousand applications currently in the App Store?

Striking differences between the iPhone 5 and the previous generation is the larger landscape display. Automatically, it requires the developer to make a few changes so that their products can run perfectly on the iPhone 5.

On the sidelines of the launch of Apple has mentioned that the application is not designed for the iPhone 5 will appear in letterbox, which displays applications in proportion to the size of the screen, but by adding a black frame on the top and bottom.

Well, to make changes so that applications can now run well on the iPhone 5 is not easy. The developers are required to work hard, let alone most of them do not have the iPhone 5 as a test tool.

"It's hard to explain. For some applications it may be easy, but for other applications may need to change the whole appearance," said Paul Haddad, Tweetbot app maker.

The same thing also expressed by the application developer named Marco Tabini. He felt all his application should be changed as soon as possible, especially with the iPhone screen ratio is different now.

"I will change my entire application in accordance with the new aspect ratio, because no one wants to use the application with letterbox display," Tabini says. Although he felt to be extra hard work, but the developers have agreed to make changes as soon as possible.
