So some stuff got released without an annotation system that declares when it's available, and this let's folks use that on old versions? How big of a problem is this?
- jitl 3y agoUnlike Android where Jetpack tries it’s hardest to backport new libraries to old OS, Apple almost always required consumers to upgrade to new OS to use their latest libraries. If this means Apple is more likely to let me use SwiftUI iOS 17 features when targeting iOS 16 devices, it’s pretty exciting.
- dpcx 3y agoSounds like this will specifically allow for older devices to continue to work with newer versions of apps. Obviously not everything will work, but it would still be nice to be able to use some old i-device even if it can't run the latest iOS.
