Development for Apple’s iOS - the operating system running on iPhone, iPod Touch, and iPad - is a funny combination of wonderful and maddening. The platform’s native API, called Cocoa Touch, provides an app developer with an amazing combination of power and flexibility - and it’s been improving with each version. But the power and flexibility also come with a tradeoff: frameworks perform neat tricks, but at the cost of processing time and memory consumption. This is especially true when accessing a device’s camera, and especially true when accessing the camera on an iPhone 4, which returns huuuuge images.

We’re pleased to announce QuickView for iPhone 2.0, expected to appear in the App Store in late March 2010. This is a major update, bringing many oft-requested features and enhancements. Please click “Read Entire Article” to learn more.

Learned new tools from my business.
