I noticed something even odder when I was updating Instapaper from 4.2.2 to 4.2.3 on my iPad 2, iOS 6 beta 2 yesterday: Instapaper is about 25 megabytes, and I'm on a desperately slow network. It should've ended in no less than 5 minutes, but it just took over 15 seconds.
I'm certain that I'm on iOS 6 ( :D ), and I'm certain that I updated Instapaper (4.2.2 crashed on lunch in iOS 6, that's why he sent out 4.2.3 and now I can open Instapaper), and that my network is slow and it shouldn't have taken less than 5 minutes. So, what's the story? To my knowledge, delta updates are still not available to iOS apps for some reason. And I couldn't find anything about them in devforums/iOS 6 docs/WWDC sessions.
So, could it be relevant? Maybe they were testing delta updates by mistake and some apps got burned?
- rkudeshi 14y agoDoesn't iOS 6 add delta updates for apps? Or was that still only for system updates?
- pooriaazimi 14y agoTo best of my knowledge, it's still only for OS itself. Searching for 'delta' in devforums.apple.com and developer library doesn't seem to return anything relevant, and I've watched or at least skimmed through most WWDC sessions and it wasn't mentioned anywhere. But I'm not an active iOS developer at the moment and might be mistaken, or haven't looked enough.
