iOS (formerly iPhone OS) is a handheld OS developed and broadcast by Apple Inc.
Initially unveiled in 2007 for the iPhone, it has been expanded to help other Apple apparatuses such as the iPod Touch (September 2007), I pad (January 2010), iPad Mini (November 2012) and second-era Apple TV onward (September 2010). Unlike Microsoft's Windows Phone and Google's Android, Apple will not license iOS for installing on non-Apple hardware.
As of October 2013, Apple's Appstore included more than 1 million iOS programs, 500,000 that were optimized for I pad. These apps have collectively been downloaded over 60 billion times. It'd a 21% share of the smartphone mobile OS units sent in the fourth-quarter of 2012, behind Google's Android. Based On the specific media event held by Apple on September 1 2, 2012, 400 million devices were sold by June 2012.
The interface of iOS is based on the idea of direct manipulation, using multi-contact gestures. Interface manage elements include sliders, switches, and buttons. Interaction with the OS includes gestures such as swipe, pat, crunch, and inverse pinch, all of which have particular definitions within the context of its multi-touch-interface and the iOS operating system.
Major variations of iOS are released per annum. The existing release, iOS 7, was launched on September 18, 2013. In iOS, there are four abstraction levels: Heart OS layer, the Core Services level, the Media layer|the Media level, the Core Services level, the Center OS level}, as well as the Cocoa Touch layer|the Cocoa Touch level, the Core Services level, the Media stratum, along with the Heart OS layer}. The current version of the operating system (iOS 7.0.6), dedicates 1-1.5 GB of the device's flash-memory for the system partition, using roughly 800 MB of that partition (fluctuating by model) for iOS itself. It works on the I-phone 4 and later, 2nd-era iPad and later, all versions of the iPad Mini, as well as the fifth-generation iPod Touch.
