iPhone apps can increase their size up to 100 MB
The arrival of the operating system iOS 7 comes with a good number of new features. And not only in the aspect visual Along with it come changes in some of the measures and restrictions that Apple posed to developers through the market App Store One of them was the limitation of downloading applications of up to 50 MB using data connectionIssue that has been expanded with iOS 7 to the delight of developers and, perhaps not so much, of users. This is the limit that allowed applications to be downloaded through the internet data connection of the terminal. Thus, if a user tried to acquire a tool that exceeded that volume, an alert message prevented him from downloading it unless he connected to a network WiFi A measure that he respected the data plans to avoid surprises on the bill. Issue that they have now expanded to 100 MB Exactly double the capacity. Something that seems to bring consequences sooner rather than later.
In this way, users who wish to can download all kinds of applications from anywhere up to 100 MB An amplitude that at the moment respects a large number of games, which are usually the heaviest optionsThe key is whether this measure is up to the level of what the current data rates offered by the telephone operators can support. And it is that not everyone has a unlimited rate or higher than one GB for be able to freely download everything you want throughout the month, as well as use other services, surf the Internet, send files by WhatsApp, etc. This premise arises from the idea that soon the App Store will be filled with applications that take advantage of this limit of 100 MB And it is that more volume means less work for developers, who until now had to reduce the size of their tools below 50 MB to prevent users from forgetting to download them when needing a network WiFi, avoiding the reduction of the attractiveness and the possibility of obtaining an application at any time and place.Thus, with heavier tools, it is possible that many users see their data plans resentful, knowing that half of the applications downloaded in the same month can make them reach the limit of your connection. Of course, an increase in this limit may also mean an increase in the quality and content of the applications. Especially in free, which are usually the most downloaded.
We will still have to wait and see how the market reacts, the developers and users to this extent of iOS 7 Something that can encourage scaling of the rates offered by telephone operators or reduce the consumption of applications to environments where there is a connection WiFi that does not make a dent in the bills.At the moment, those who have updated to iOS 7 can already download almost any application through the data connection, being necessary to connect to a network WiFi if the app or juice exceeds 100 MB capacity. All of this without forgetting that heavier applications mean less free space in the terminal's memory. Collateral damage for those users who decided to get the version with less capacity of smartphone from Apple
