Following are new features and long-anticipated upgrades included in iOS 11 that offer numerous opportunities for developers to build improved app experiences for their customers.
Open Your Access to AR
iOS 11 introduces ARKit, a new framework that elevates app experiences beyond the screen by placing objects in real world environments and allowing developers to apply their creativity in new and exciting ways. The smartphone will be the go-to consumer platform to bring AR features to the masses so in order for developers to position themselves at the forefront of immersive technology, they will need to prioritize learning how to build with the ARKit.
Leverage Core Machine Learning
IOS 11 also introduces Core ML, a general-purpose machine learning framework that developers can use to integrate machine learning into their apps. Intended to spare developers from having to build all the platform-level plumbing themselves, Core ML harnesses machine learning to do the thinking for them.
