Apple Launches New App Development Tools and Technologies



As per Susan Prescott, Apple's Vice President of Worldwide Developer Relations, the latest collection of tools brought to Xcode Cloud, a vast variety of new APIs, and ongoing innovation in the Swift Programming Language will reach and attract more people, strengthening Apple's platforms.


Apple has released a brand-new suite of tools and technologies aimed just at developers. This new release is intended to make it easier for iOS app developers to create high-quality apps as well as more engaging app experiences.

Apple Developer Program members may already download developer betas of WatchOS 8, macOS Monterey, tvOS 15, iPadOS 15, and iOS 15 at developer.apple.com.


Xcode Cloud is now available as a limited free beta, with additional availability expected later this year, and will be available to all developers in the following year.



Let's have a look upon some of the new released features-


  • App store-Apple is introducing new product page features that will provide developers additional ways to engage with App Store ,consumers and greater flexibility. Custom Product Pages enable developers to present different app features to different consumers, whereas Product Page Optimization enables them to examine different images, app icons, and preview videos.The company is also releasing new guidelines that include support for the growing category of apps that deliver creator content experiences. The developer code of conduct expands in order to preserve the App Store, a real marketplace for users and developers, including revised guidelines about developers' identity requirements, more customer complaints, and review and rating manipulation.Developers have the option of appealing an application rejection based on prejudice, as well as reporting an app if they feel it poses a safety or trust risk or violates the App Store Review Guidelines.


  • Augmented reality- With more than 1 billion AR-powered gadgets enabled by ARKit, Apple has the world's largest AR platform. This framework makes it simple for developers to create augmented reality experiences. Apple has just released RealityKit 2 Object Capture, which allows developers to create 3D, high-quality, photorealistic models of the environment using iPhone, iPad, and DSLR images.AR Quick Look is used to efficiently create AR apps by examining models in Xcode or Reality Composer. Using new APIs in RealityKit 2, developers can now create more sophisticated and realistic AR experiences with improved audio, visual, and animation control, as well as incorporate dynamic shaders and custom render passes.


  • Xcode Cloud- Xcode Cloud is a brand-new continuous integration and delivery cloud solution. Xcode Cloud, which is included into Xcode 13, provides a quick and simple solution for app developers to build and test high-quality iOS apps even more quickly. It can generate apps on the cloud automatically, freeing up developer Macs for other tasks.


Parallel cloud testing means that developers may check each current Apple device's simulated version before deploying the app development for internal testing or delivering it to external beta testers via TestFlight for fast feedback.


  • Swift- Swift, the powerful and spontaneous programming language, includes built-in concurrency support for developers to make code development easier. The communication features will assist developers with writing safe and fast code with fewer errors, allowing them to gain the full benefits of Apple's powerful multi-core hardware across all of their devices.SwiftUI will strengthen in-app accessibility features, list views, multicolumn tables, search experiences, and so on. In other words, SwiftUI has revolutionised UI development by making it easier to design beautiful applications with less code.



Certain more APIs and tools for developers to improve their app experiences and enable them to build entirely new features.

  •  Share play- SharePlay works with well-known apps like as Twitch, TikTok, Paramount+, MasterClass, Hulu, HBO Max, ESPN+, and Disney Plus to create entirely new shared experiences for Mac, iPad, and iPhone users.

  • Xcode 13 - Xcode 13 provides new team development tools that integrate seamlessly with Xcode Cloud as well as GitLab, BitBucket, and GitHub collaboration services.

  • Third video calling apps-These apps can take use of the most current FaceTime enhancements, which include Portrait mode, Wide Spectrum Audio, and Voice Isolation.

  • New Camera APIs -These allow for more merged photos and the ability to capture 1080p video and high-quality still shots in the same session.

  • Test flight-This allows Mac developers to test in-app purchases and other fantastic Mac programme features.

  • Storekit 2-This ensures the security of in-app transactions for customers. It now has new APIs for managing subscriber status and product entitlements, as well as testing support in both the Apple sandbox environment and Xcode.



Spatial Audio-Apple can now provide a theater-like experience with spatial audio and place sounds all about the room to bring music material to life. Furthermore, the Physical Spatialization Engine makes it simple for game creators to implement true-to-life audio across all Apple platforms.
