Autolayout and iOS

I always liked that iOS has fixed screen sizes. With the new iPhone 6 this is still true, but due to new features, like landscape on iPhone 6 Plus, Apple recommends to switch to Autolayout throughout your App.

At first, Autolayout seemed confusing and somewhat difficult. However, after awhile you get used to it and it makes all sense and even very easy.

From now on, you don't deal with pixels anymore, you just layout the UI elements and iOS does the rest. Xcode also offers an iPhone Simulator with customizable screen resolutions. This makes it easy to test your App in any possible resolution.

And this lead me to one pretty handy conclusion: The iPad version of my iPhone Apps will soon offer the same usability, without developing everything twice!

Before Autolayout, I always programmed the UI in Pixels, because it was easy and I was not an expert in iOS development. When I started to work on the iPad version, I basically did the same UI again, but adapted to the iPad's screen size.

Now, I will just display the iPhone UI on the iPad and thanks to Autolayout it will automatically resize and fit in perfectly.

The UMass BusTrack App iPad version was always lacking features compared to the iPhone version. In the next Update, it will have (almost) the same features as the iPhone version.

The iPhone 6 Plus will mix everything up and have iPhone and iPad features at once. 

I am still working on the update, but it will come soon!
