iPad sales have been declining for quite some time, this year is
no different. As per Apple’s first quarter report, iPad sales declined more as
compared to last quarter. However, Tim Cook, Apple’s CEO, who is very
optimistic about iPad’s future, an aggressive push into the corporate world
will revive iPad once again. For how long, nobody knows, but they are quite
enthusiastic about it.
In order to push iPad aggressively into the corporate world, last
year Apple signed a deal with IBM to launch more the 100 corporate iPad apps. Moreover, there are
rumors of a large-screen (13 inch) iPad in production that will target the
corporate clients.
To be honest, as far as hardware is concerned, iPad almost offers
same durability and processing speed as a simple laptop could offer. However, a
9.7” and 7.9” screen has been a nuisance for most users. That’s why there are
rumors of an iPad with a 13” inch screen. We have learned from ZDNet that
Apple’s large screen iPad’s production has been halted due to the
unavailability of large display panels.
It is true that almost every app looks better on iPad as compared
to the iPhone and iPod, especially when it comes to games. That is why many iPad applications development companies boast about their skill, expertise and
abilities to transform an app’s experience on to a large screen device.
iPad application development is a bit
difficult and unique sort of skill. It is not about the screen size only, you
have to consider a lot of things like app’s accessibility, user interface and
user experience while developing an app for iPad. That’s why companies like IBM
prefer to join hands with Apple to utilize their iPad app development
expertise for their corporate clients.
There are not many iPad apps development companies that could successfully transform an iPhone app’s experience into an iPad app. Even a simple iPad applications development process includes steps like UX & UI designing, prototyping, development, testing, and launch. However, any company that could master the iPad application development process, can earn a lot of respect and money in the iPad app development market.
