iOS 15 New Features 

Here is the list of all key iOS 15 features of the new OS. We tried them out as beta software, and we’ve listed them below, along with our thoughts. Meet some of the most enhanced and best new features in iOS 15. 

 

#1 Revamped Notification Centre

In the iOS 15 update, Apple redesigned notifications. From now on, Notification will display contact photos in large icons for applications to make them easier to identify.

Notification summary basically will let you bundle up non-essential notifications from apps that you don’t care about and have them delivered at a particular time of the day in a beautiful widget not to distract you in the meantime. 

Revamped Notification Centre - iOS 15 Features

The Notifications refurbishes in iOS 15, where you can add photos in contact and larger icons in applications. In addition, the notification summary will collect the notifications together for delivery according to your time and arrange all the messages as a priority to reduce notifications. That is one awesome feature that makes it very easy to get notifications from critical applications and eliminates the risks. 

Revamped Notification Centre

#2 Prioritized and Organised Notification Image 

Another best thing about this is its novelty feature “Do Not Disturb” feature. This feature is now called Focus, where you can select what apps are allowed to send in your notification or which contact can bother you to message and call.

Focus mode will tell all the apps that you have all the notifications silenced as a heads-up and enable them to override your DND request if they have something significant to say to you. Here, you can automate these focus states to turn on and off at the selected time of the day, just like “Do Not Disturb”. 

Focus is a new feature that allows users to filter notifications and apps based on their wish to concentrate. Customers can customize their smartphone to help them be more present at the moment by setting a custom Focus or picking a suggested Focus, which leverages on-device intelligence to advise which people and apps should be notified.

A suggestion of Focus depends on users’ context, suppose during their work time or at the time of rolling down to bed. When the Focus is set on an Apple device, it will automatically apply to all other Apple devices. 

Moreover, Users can construct Home Screen pages with applications and widgets that only display relevant apps and prevent temptation by applying them to moments of focus.

#3 New Memoji 

Apple has been regularly promoting WWDC2021 using their popular Memoji, and with that, they brought improvements to the various iPhone devices with iOS 15. A new customization option is also available in Memoji in a recent update, says Apple. These new customization options in Memoji will give the users an outstanding advantage to design and customize their Memoji according to their choice of looks and appearance. This message will be available for iMessage. 

New Memoji

At the time of the keynote speech, Apple announced that iOS 15 would come with 40 new outfits, headwear, accessibility options, and glasses. Here, users will be able to mix and match the color of clothes according to their choice so they can style their Memoji in any funky or classy type freely. 

Have a look at these features of Memoji in detail. 

  • Clothing: Users may now personalize their Memoji with over 40 wardrobe options to represent their mood, style, or season, as well as up to three distinct colors.
  • New Accessibility Option: You can now represent yourself with cochlear implants, oxygen tubes, or a soft helmet, thanks to three new accessibility options.
  • New Stickers Include: You can send a shaka, a hand wave, a lighting moment, and more with nine new Memoji stickers.
  • Eyes of Two Different Colours: You can now choose a different hue for your left and right eyes.
  • New Spectacles: Three new eyeglass options, including heart, star, and retro forms, allow you to personalize your character. Choose a frame and lens color that complements your personality.
  • Multicolored Hat: Choose up to three colors for your hat to represent your favorite sports team or university.

#4 Message Overhaul

The coolest thing right here is sending a bundle of messages; they now appear as a collage that you can swipe through very quickly, and it’s so much neater, occupies less room, and you can get a glanceable collage view by clicking on the five photos there. 

Now you can open up the photos in the form of a grid view just by tapping on it. 

Shared With You is a critical option in this. This makes the user experience much better and makes it easy to handle. 

Here, users will be assembled to pin a notable content search and access a detailed view of the conversation. 

Because of the Shared With You feature, Messages will also get some region-wise improvements in iOS 15, as in SMS filtration for unwanted messages. In the time, this is going to be introduced in Brazil and notification options in China and India. Shared With You, the notification option will allow users to turn off the notifications for the messages of their choice. In addition, it’s now possible to search for photographs sent via Messages using a contact’s name.

#5 Facetime Overhaul 

When you’re on a video call, your mic is picking up a cacophony of sound. So, in voice isolation, machine learning distinguishes this sound, blocks down the ambient voice, and prioritizes your voice. 

Sometimes, you might want every bit of sound to come through. Thus, at that time, you can switch to Wide Spectrum. In Wide Spectrum, your mic picks up an entire symphony’s worth of sound, your voice, and everything around you. 

If you wish to see every person’s face in the room on a video call, you can now turn on the grid view giving another way to view facetime calls and make your facetime video capture more beautiful than ever. 

Grid View

When you wish to see everyone in the room, you can now turn on grid view, giving you another way to view your group, friends, or work partner’s facetime calls and make your facetime video capture more beautiful. 

Portrait Mode

This time, Apple introduced portrait mode in Facetime. Moreover, this portrait mode blurs the background behind you and naturally puts the focus on you. This mode will change the whole experience of video calling and video meetings to another level. Ain’t that amazing?

Wish to schedule your facetime calls? Then, apple is going to introduce the best solution. Moreover, to help you plan your facetime calls, Apple created Facetime links. Now, generate a link for a facetime call and share it anywhere like email, WhatsApp, or you can jump into it. You can share the link with any person anywhere and connect with them.   

#6 Maps 

An interactive globe view and greatly expanded details in a new 3D view for cities are now available in Maps. Neighborhoods, business areas, elevation, buildings, and other features have been enhanced, including new road colors and labels, custom-designed landmarks, and a new “moonlit” night mode.

The Maps app also offers a 3D city driving experience with the tiniest details of the road, as in medians, lanes, bikes, and pedestrian crosswalks, that works both on the iPhone and in Apple CarPlay.

#7 Wallet

In iOS 15, the Wallet app now supports additional key types, such as home, office, corporate, or hotel room key cards.

The Wallet app also adds support for car keys, now using Ultra-Wideband to unlock, lock, and start your car without taking your iPhone out of your pocket.

The wallet app also added support for car keys; now, it is using the ultra-wideband to unlock the lock, Because Ultra Wideband provides precise spatial awareness, iOS will prevent you from locking your car while your iPhone is inside or starting your vehicle while your iPhone is outside.

Remote keyless entry controls are now supported by Wallet, allowing you to lock or unlock your car, honk your horn, preheat your car, or open your trunk.

Customers in participating states in the United States will be able to add their driver’s license or state IDs to the Wallet app later in 2021. In addition, according to Apple, the Transportation Security Administration is working with Apple to make airport security checkpoints the first place customers can use their digital Identity Card in Wallets.

 #8 Safari 

Safari has an entirely new design in iOS 15. Controls are relocated to the bottom of the screen, making them easier to reach with one hand.

A new, compact tab bar floats at the bottom of the screen, allowing users to swipe between tabs quickly, and it also includes a Smart Search field. In addition, tab Groups enable users to save their accounts in a folder and sync them between their iPhone and iPad. Moreover, it also offers a tab overview grid view.

Safari has become even more personal and powerful because of new features like the personalized start page and web extensions on iOS. 

New Safari privacy features in iOS 15 include Intelligent Tracking Prevention, which prevents trackers from profiling you based on your IP address. Thus, Safari will automatically upgrade vulnerable HTTP sites to HTTPS.

#9 SharePlay

Using SharePlay, users can share various experiences while having FaceTime calls. It also includes media like TV shows, Movies, and Apple Music songs. Media plays and syncs for all the participating people. There are shared playback controls, such that anyone on FaceTime call can play, pause, skip and stop the media. 

With SharePlay you can 

Listen Together,

Watch Together,

&

Share Your Screen.

SharePlay offers users the ability to share their device’s screen to view apps together in FaceTime calls. 

Many Third-party apps such as HBO Max, ESPN+, Disney+, Hulu, Paramount+, Tiktok, PlutoTV, MasterClass, and many others are supported to integrate SharePlay. 

SharePlay can be used on different devices like iPad, iPhone, AppleTV, and Mac, such that users can watch movies and TV series with bigger screen sizes on other devices.

SharePlay offers intelligent volume control that automatically adjusts and enhances audio on its own. Thus, you can hear your friend’s voice even when the shared content is playing loudly. 

#10 Photos App Improved 

Memories has received a significant makeover in the Photos app, with a new design, connection with Apple Music, interactive interface, and Memory looks.

Memories will recommend songs based on your Apple Music listening history. These memories sync with movies and photographs to provide a more personalized experience. Here, users get customized memories by swiping through Memory mixes. It lets you play various songs of your choice at a different pace and in a different atmosphere. 

There are over 12 Memory looks that add to the vibe by analyzing each and every photo and video. Also, it will apply an appropriate amount of contrast to enhance the media look to make it look natural. Here, it’s possible to edit and view the whole content from memory in a bird’s-eye view using Watch Next section. Here, you’ll find some related memories you can watch. 

Photo App Improved - iOS 15 Features

Individual recognition has improved, and it’s now easy to remedy naming errors in the People album. For example, to tell Photos that you’d like to see less of a given date, place, person across Featured Photos, etc. Thus, you can use the Feature Less option.

In iOS 15, Photos features a new info pane to have a look at the details of a photo. You can look for the lens, shutter speed, camera, and file size. Moreover, you can now make changes to the date, location and learn more about the items detected by Visual Look Up. 

Visual Look Up 

In Visual Look Up, swipe up or tap the new information button on any photo to bring up a list of identified objects and scenes, allowing you to learn more about the image’s content. 

Suppose you have a picture of some animal and tap on the Visual Look Up button. You’ll find every information related to that breed of that animal, their living, and every information related to it. 

#11 Live Text

Live Text recognizes text in a photo and allows users to take action using on-device intelligence. Users can, for example, look for and locate a photograph of a handwritten family recipe or take a phone number from a storefront and contact it. With the help of the Apple Neural Engine, the camera application can quickly recognize and copy text spontaneously, as in the Wi-Fi passwords displayed at the cafe. 

Live Text - iOS 15 Features

Using Visual Look Up, users can know more about anything existing in the photo. 

Spotlight is now using Artificial Intelligence to scan and search photos by people, location, handwriting, objects, and scenes using Live Text. Also, it can find writing and text in images. 

Spotlight offers web image search and new rich results for TV shows, Movies, Musicians, and Actors. Moreover, enhanced results for every contact will show the recent conversation, locations shared through FindMy, and shared photos. 

#12 Siri

Siri requests are processed on-device using the Neural Engine in iOS 15, which improves security and responsiveness while eliminating the need for an internet connection.

As you use your device, the on-device voice recognition and understanding improve. Here, Siri will learn about your contact and with whom you’re interacting the most, topics you read, songs you listen to, and new words you type. 

Siri can now send a screenshot or share onscreen elements like images, web pages, content from Apple Music or Apple Podcasts, Apple News stories, Maps locations, and more in a Message. In addition, Siri can now send a message or make a call based on onscreen context.

Siri has improved its ability to keep context between requests, allowing you to refer to what you asked earlier in a conversation. You may also ask Siri to control a HomeKit device at a specified time or under specific conditions, such as when you leave the house.

From now on, Siri will be able to announce notifications, as in reminders, in Apple CarPlay, on AirPods, and you can even ask Siri about what’s on your phone’s screen. 

#13 New Privacy Features

iOS 15 came up with even more privacy controls to protect the information of users. 

Siri queries’ audio is now processed exclusively on the iPhone by default, and performance is greatly improved with on-device voice recognition.

In addition, beautifully revamped animated backdrops more precisely depict the location of the sun and precipitation, and notifications indicate when rain or snow begins and ends.

6 Mobile Application Security Tips to Improve Safety of device

Posted on by Mitesh Prajapati

Article Summary: This article on Mobile Application security tips will cover all the points that will help you keep your mobile app safe from any cyber attack. Also, it will help you in future if you look forward to develop other apps too.

We are living in an era where the smartphone has become a basic necessity for every person. Our lives are totally dependent on it. It provides our every basic need like texting, calling, our medium to search any question at any moment, track our fitness, shop, work remotely, and many more. It has basically improved our lives.

But, where the good comes, obstacles come hand-in-hand with it. The way technology is bringing an improvement in everyone’s life, threatening to disturb that environment comes with it by the name of “Cyber Attack”.

Since the pandemic of Covid-19 took over the world in 2019, with the increase in usage of the various mobile applications; a high increase in cyber-attacks took place since then.
Important Fact: Large businesses are still risking jeopardy of their application, their personal systems, reputation, and their customer’s personal information by applying highly efficient security. Cyber attackers use COVID-19 as a bait to imitate brands and confuse employees and consumers; an increase in phishing attacks, ransomware attacks, and Malspams.

But not everyone is a cybersecurity expert. Thus, you are the one who will have to take precautions for your own safety. You can make your Mobile App secure using these tips.

Let’s get going!

How to Secure Your Mobile App?

The software code itself like the business logic on the back end network and the client-side, APIs funneling data, databases, the computer, and its operating system, and the user all contribute to the success of a mobile app. Each one contributes to the overall protection of the app.

In a crowded, creative, & competitive market, offering robust security may be a huge differentiator for businesses with mobile apps. Here are a few things to think about when it comes to mobile app protection, as well as which experts can help you secure your mobile assets from all sides.

#1 Secure the Code

Mobile software protection, like any other software project, must be prioritized from the start. Native apps, on the other hand, are distinct from web applications, which store data and software on a server and use the client-side (or browser) as a user interface. However, once you download a native app, the code remains on the phone, making it more available to anyone with malicious intent.

Many bugs can are visible in an app’s source code, so companies don’t invest their security budgets there. While network and data protection components are essential parts of the overall security image, the app’s security must come first. Vulnerabilities take place because of developer error, a failure to test the code, or a hacker specifically targeting your app.

Tips time:

  • Encryption is your way to go. Your code should be secure. Minification and Obfuscation are the best and most common measures for encryption. You better stick with an algorithm that is quite powerful and comes with API encryption.
  • It is better to keep in mind that runtime memory, filesize, data & battery usage, and performance while adding security to an app.
  • Make sure that the Apps are tested and approved.

#2 Put Identification, Authorization, and Authentication

Authentication and authorization technology, like APIs, allows users to prove their identity to an app, adding another layer of protection to the login process. It helps in validating them before sharing the information.

Tips time:

  • If you’re using a third-party API to use some information, and ensure that you access the essential parts only with thorough security across the app.
  • For encrypted data exchange, JSON web tokens are lightweight and perfect for mobile protection.
  • For managing safe connections inside the app, OAuth2 is the norm. If you want to use two-factor authentication, you must install it inside the app’s secure layer. It will allow granting permission only to those who fulfill the necessary credentials and will use the app for the stated purpose.
  • OpenID Connect is a mobile-only federation protocol. It uses an ID token to allow users to reuse their credentials across several domains, eliminating the need to register and sign in each time.

#3 Have a Tough API Security Strategy     

Since mobile development is so reliant on APIs, securing mobile apps begins with securing their APIs. APIs enable data to flow between applications, the cloud, and a variety of users. Here, each of them will have access to data.

Since APIs are the primary conduits for content, functionality, and data, ensuring proper API protection is critical.

Tip Time:

  • A well-built API security stack you should measure and keep strong is Authentication, authorization, and identification.

#4 Regularly Test Your App

During the creation of an app, it is normally necessary to test the code. Since applications are developing with rapid speed, important points are not visible to reduce the development time.

If the software is a native, hybrid, or web app, experts recommend checking for protection in addition to accessibility and usability. You’ll be able to identify bugs in the code and fix them before releasing your software.

Tips Time:

  • Conduct penetration testing to identify any potential weaknesses in the software.
  • You can look into the app’s authorization, data protection, and other issues.
  • Use emulators to test the app’s output in various environments to determine the app’s vulnerability and whether or not the data will be stable.

#5 Do not Follow BYOD (Bring Your Own Device) Policy

Allowing workers to use their own devices will expose the network to hacking vulnerabilities, making it more difficult for the IT department to control access to data on backend systems. Mobile device management (MDM) software, such as Airwatch and MobileIron, is often a worthwhile investment.

These will provide workers with the ease of working on the go while still providing businesses with security assurance.

Tips Time:

  • Use a virtual private network (VPN) to build a protected link that is less vulnerable to hackers listening in over an insecure network.
  • Make your phone risk-aware, such that apps attempting to perform such transactions stays away. Apps can detect and block such transactions from rooted devices. Alternatively, it enables remote erase capabilities to wipe sensitive data from missing mobile devices that belong to someone who is no longer an employee by any organisation.
  • Secure the device with a firewall, anti-spam, add antivirus, and block any unauthorized device that comes into your network.

#6 Take Precautions to Secure back end and Network Connections

To serve data from the backend, the app makes use of cloud servers as well as API servers. As a result, this is where the majority of data processing occurs, protecting this portion of the mobile app is important. Control should be in a way that people who do not have authority can not access vulnerabilities.

Before using APIs, make sure they are verified and validated, and that proper authentication is in effect for those who are accessing the APIs.

Tips Time:

  • Create encrypted containers for storing your data securely using the Containerization method
  • Keep a regular check on the network and do vulnerability assessments to ensure that your data is protected.
  • Encrypted connections and Database Encryption with VPN (Virtual Private Network), TLS (Transport Layer Protection), and SSL (Secure Sockets Layer) will add an extra security layer to protect your data.

In The End…

It’s important to protect the app before releasing it to the public. Before incorporating an API into the app, read the app store’s instructions carefully. Understand what the potential major app problems are, and understand how the API operates.

When preparing, define the UI and UX, and ensure that the security aspects have been validated. Secure your app’s username, networks, and backend. Are you looking to build an astonishing mobile application? You can hire our expert Android Developer or iOS Developer Based on application’s need.

Android vs. iOS: ON WHICH PLATFORM YOU SHOULD BUILD MOBILE APP FIRST

Posted on by Mitesh Prajapati

In this era of mobility and changing time, development is taking place faster than anytime. We have a lot to dig in.

Mobile application is ruling the era and this era is being ruled by Android and iOS. In the fourth quarter of 2020, around 2.9 million apps were available in the Apple App Store. It would be astonishing for you to know that till February 2021, Android has 71.9% Market share Worldwide.

Now you can imagine how much good you will make when you choose to build an application of your own.

If you’re creating an application, developing for iOS or Android is one of the first decisions you need to make.

Why can’t you develop mobile application on both platforms?

Well you can, but it’s too risky if you are just starting with your business.

We know that your ultimate goal is to launch an application on both platforms, before you decide anything, you need to think about the risk factors you’ll face if you select both platforms.

Creating an app in both iOS and Android can cost you way too much. Here, you’ll be putting a high amount of money at stake.

Instead of that, you can launch your app on any one platform, once it is successful; you can launch the app on another platform.

So, how will you decide between Android and iOS to launch your app?

There are pros and cons of both platforms, but your choice depends on 7 factors:

  1. Hardware Requirement
  2. Target Audience
  3. License Issue 
  4. Features
  5. Integrated Development Environment
  6. Monetization 

Without wasting any time, let’s start with how these factors will affect your application. 

Let’s start!

1. Hardware Requirements:

Depending on the country in which you are, the hardware requirements are obvious to have or not so obvious to have.

In countries like India Windows is the dominant operating system, rather than US and Uk, where Mac Operating systems are mostly preferred. For the people in the USA and UK, it is pretty much common to develop iOS App rather than Android App. 

In India, Android Mobile Application development is much more preferred because the hardware you need is easily accessible and cheaper than iOS hardwares. 

The hurdle you’ll face is, for the MAC or iOS Mobile Application Development, you’ll need to have an iMac, Mac Mini or Macbook Pro. 

Where Android hardware is easier to get or upgrade. 

Thus, it is your choice to choose the hardware requirement according to your need. 

Important Features for perfect hardware for developing Mobile Application:

  • Top processor (Core i9/ Ryzen 9 Processor is new in market). Choose i3 Processor / ryzen 3 Minimum. 
  • Minimum 8GB RAM is preferred, if you purchase 16 GB RAM, it will be a good decision. 
  • Minimum 256GB SSD Hard Disk is required.

 

[table id=1 /]

LogicRays Recommendation:

Whatever you choose, choose wisely because your Hardware requirement will be the base of your Application and both Android and iOS have their pros and cons. 

If you got big bucks to spend for your application, go for iOS App Development. 

And, if you want to make your Application under the budget with good features, Android App Development is what you should prefer. 

2. Target Audience:

First thing you need to know is that your users will either belong to Android or iOS platforms. 

Your App will depend on your idea, and your idea will decide your target audience. 

For Example, If my idea is to make a Food Delivery app, then I will have to create apps on both iOS and Android platforms because my target audience will be everyone. 

But if my idea is to create a Music app, then it will depend on the audience, whether my audience is using iOS / Android / Both platforms. 

If you’re targeting a global audience, Android will be your best choice. But if your audience is in the UK or US, Apple will be a better choice.

LogicRays Recommendation:

Depending in which country your user base belongs will help you make this decision. 

Go through your idea and observe, where you will be able to get more traffic on your application depending on your country you’re living in. 

3. License Issue:

License issues with Android and iOS are completely different. If you’re making an Application in iOS, it will cost you more than Android. 

iOS charges $99 per year to upload your application in the App Store. 

Where Android charges $30 for lifetime access to upload any Apps you want to upload in Google Playstore. 

iOS is very precise when it comes to choosing an application to upload in the Apple store because. iOS is very precise about the quality of application you’re uploading because Apple does not accept low-quality applications in their store. These conditions help them keep their standard high in the world. 

iOS goes pixel-to-pixel to check your Application. It is far more strict in App development, checks memory leaks, and Graphics of Application. 

In Android it is much easier for any application to get selected to be in Google Playstore. 

The Lifetime usage with affordable rates, make Android a much preferable choice for everyone because, not everyone can afford $99 every year unless their App runs successfully in iOS.

LogicRays Recommendation

Doesn’t matter if you’re a beginner or an Expert Mobile App Developer, Apple is much recommended because Apple is far more strict in accepting the app and renewing the license on a monthly basis. Thus, Apps in Apple are much more refined, strict, safe & secure. 

Android on the other hand comes with less price but less price means more users, more apps, more competition, and every type of apps. 

4. Features:

The feature of your app depends on the main idea behind creating this application and what your audience will need out of it. 

So, the main question for you is that “What features will you provide through your Mobile App?” Because Android is open source and it provides more flexibility compared to iOS. 

Building the features and functions that your audience wants is in your hand. 

Open source means Android has higher risk to pirate apps and malware. When you compare Apple with Android- Apple is more secure because of its closed nature. This is the reason why iOS has a bigger audience base in the enterprise market. 

It keeps the data of enterprise safe & secure.

LogicRays Recommendation:

For the enterprise market it is much more recommended to use Apple because it is much more secure & safe. Where Android is open-source, there are a good number of chances that a bug or malware can attack your application. 

Thus, if your application is for your personal purpose, then using Android for your App development is much preferred. 

5. Integrated Development Environment (IDE):

Now when you write code for iOS, you use Xcode and when you write code for Android, you use Android studio. 

When you compare Xcode with Android Studio, Xcode is far more dominant than with the Android Studio. Since the things have now changed for Android Studio version 4.1, you don’t have to use third-party software like genymotion to speed up your performance of the emulator in the end right now. 

The default emulator is quite better than the previous version. 

On the other hand, Xcode is quite mature software because it has been through quite a lot of phases in every update. Thus, working on the Xcode is far more easier and less buggy, compared to the Android Studio. 

Also, the Android Studio has its own benefits like: arranging the things in layout is far more easier in the Android compared to Xcode because it comes with the linear layouts and compound layouts. 

At the end it is always your choice.

LogicRays Recommendation:

Apple has been dominating the market because of its ease of developing apps in Xcode. 

Since Android studio version 3 came out in October 2017, the issues related to bugs and lagginess got solved and the working with it became way more better than it used to be. 

Now that you’re getting a IDE at low rates, then why not choose it. 

6. Monetization:

When you’re building an application, at some point you also hope to get your App monetized. 

Apple App store generates twice as much revenue compared to Google Playstore despite having half many downloads. 

Apple users are more likely to make in-app purchases and spend more on it. 

The likelihood of making purchases on iOS or Android determines how much money your app can make.

When you compare iOS users with Android users; Android users are less willing to pay for the apps. 

Thus, free apps with in-app-ads are more common in Android. 

Whereas, Apple App store brings in twice as much money as Google Play, despite the fact that there are half as many downloads. 

Apple users are more likely to make and spend money on in-app purchases.

LogicRays Recommendation:

Apple could be the best bet if you want to monetize your app without ads, freemium models by subscriptions, or in-app purchases. Here eCommerce Applications are no exception. 

In The End!

Android vs. iOS: Which Platform to Build Your App for First? 

Everything depends on where you are living, where your audience lives, what are their preferences, their feature requirements, license issue, and budget to determine where you should build a business app for iOS or Android first. 

If your product has minimum requirements, then Android can be the “Way to Go!” option for you. 

As well as, if you are looking forward to generating big bucks with your app or building an eCommerce app, iOS is the best option for you. 

Moreover, if your target is an emerging market or global market, depending on the region and features of your app, Android will be your best bet here. 

It doesn’t matter which platform you’re choosing.

Both platforms are on top and equally fantastic! 

We gave you perspective, now choice is yours!

Wherever you go, Python is everywhere! 

So, Why is Python a best fit for Big Data?

Python is designed in a way that is easy to write and read. Not being a complex language, gives it the benefit of more usage. According to Stack Overflow Trend, Python is acknowledged as the fastest-growing programming language.

Today, Python is taking over the world in its best way. Python takes the Top spot for the  fourth time as Most Popular Technologies in 2020. According to the responses of more than 60,000 developers around the world, Python is considered as the third “most loved” programming language. 

Python is an interpreted, open-source, general-purpose, and object-oriented programming language. creating the world’s top applications such as Instagram, Google, Spotify, Uber, Pinterest, Reddit, etc. 

Big data is the most precious commodity in this era. Someone said that “The Future of IT is Big Data”, well that is true, but how? 

Let’s start with the basics of “What exactly Big Data is?”. 

“Big Data is a huge cluster of data that is enormous in size and volume.” 

The raw data comes with a large size and numerous complexity that no traditional tool can store, handle, and process it precisely. In short, Big data is data of large size. 

Big size companies possess a huge bundle of data, where processing, and analyzing it can take a pretty much large amount of time, and the results may not be precise. Selecting a programming language for Big Data is a project-specific task, that depends on its goal. It doesn’t matter what projects, Python is best fit for Big Data. 

But Why Python for Big Data? 

When people started combining Python and Big Data, the scenario of the marketplace changed and now, Big Data is much more efficient and easy to understand, because Python has made it easy to use and understandable for every developer. Python is in enormous demand among all Big Data Companies right now. 

Here, we will discuss why using python for Big Data is beneficial. 

#1 Open- Source

Open source is software in which the original code is released under a license. This code can be altered, modified, and enhanced according to developers needs. 

Python is an Open source programming language, thus, it supports multiple platforms. Python also supports environments like Linux, Windows, and MacOS. 

Instead of wasting time in technical terms of language, the simple, clean, and readable syntax helps Big Data experts to focus on case managing Big data easily. This is one of the main reasons to opt for Python for Big Data. 

Most Popular Programming Languages

#2 Simple and Minimal Coding 

Minimal codes in Python programming make it extensively used, compared to other languages that are available for programming. Python is known for its execution in a few lines of code. Moreover, it automatically provides help to associate and identify various data types. 

If you or someone has an idea, all you have to do is think and write 5-10 lines of code and there you go! Your program is ready to use. 

This programming language follows an indentation-based nesting i.e. structure instead of braces to structure any program in it. This language can bear a heavy and complicated task in just a click of time. That data computes in commodity machines, clouds, desktop, and laptop.

In the beginning, python was considered a slow language compared to its equivalents like Scala and Java. Now, the scenario has taken a turn of 360 since then. 

When Anaconda platform arrived in market, it came with a great speed to analyze the code. This is why Python for Big Data became the best option for everyone. 

Your Python project works best when you Hire Python Developer who can add the essence and benefits of python in your business.  

#3 Speed 

Python is highly popular for its high speed to analyze the code and for software development. The precision of Python to analyze code is perfect, because of that Python is the most appropriate choice for Big Data. It supports prototyping ideas that help to make the code run faster.

While doing so, Python also maintains the transparency between the process and the code. 

 After Anaconda entered the market, the whole scenario of working on python language changed. It came with a speed that made everything in it useful. Python programming makes sure that the code is transparent and readable.

Such speed made python more powerful, and Big Data can use that speed to make the development faster. 

#4 Libraries of Python for Big Data

Python offers a large set of standard libraries that includes corners like stings operations, internet protocols, operating system interface, and web service tool.

The standard library sets contain frequently used programming languages to make coding easier and smaller.

Python provides multiple useful libraries of your wish. This makes Python a famous programming language in the area of scientific computing. 

Big data, as the word suggests, it involves a huge amount of data analysis and computation. These libraries make the work easier for Big Data Analytics.

Python offers numerous pre-tested analytics libraries. Big Data Analytics uses these libraries filled with packages, such as:

  • Data Analysis: Inspecting, cleaning, modeling, and transforming any size of data (Large or Small) to discover some useful information for predicting the future of business on the basis of current information. 
  • Statistical Analysis: It is the process of collecting and analyzing the data, in order to analyze the trend and pattern.  
  • Machine Learning: As the name suggests, ML is programming a computer in such a way that it learns everything from different kinds of data on its own. Machine Learning uses python libraries like Numpy, Scikit-learn, Theano, TensorFlow, Keras, Pandas, PyTorch, and Matplotlib. 
  • Numerical Computing: Scientific computation is done by this. Scientific computing contains Scipy, Pandas, IPython, Natural language Toolkit, and Numeric python. 
  • Data Visualization: It gives many insights that data alone cannot provide. When you visualize the information, you bring your mind into the landscape that you explore with your eyes, like an information map in front of your eyes. Visualization libraries contain Matplotlib, Plotly, Seaborn, ggplot, and Altair. 
Library Features

 #5 Compatibility of Python with Hadoop

Hadoop’s framework is made using Java programming language. Hadoop programs also use C++ and Python. It means that even if the data architects don’t know anything about java, they can use python as an option. When you compare Java with Python, it is much easier to use python because of its small codes and high speed. 

Compared to other programming languages, Hadoop is more compatible with python. You can incorporate all the features into your business. For this, you will have to Hire Python Developer who is good with the skills. 

About Pydoop Package

Pydoop package is an interface of python to hadoop that gives you authority to write MapReduce applications and interact with HDFS applications in python. 

HDFS API let’s you write and read different information on directories, global file system properties without facing any problem. 

Pydoop provides MapReduce API for solving tough and complex problems with minimal programming. This API implements advanced data science concepts like ‘Record Reader’ and ‘Counter’, which makes Python the best fit for Big Data. 

#6 Data Processing Support 

Python comes with an inbuilt feature of supporting data processing. Data processing for unconventional and unstructured data. uses this feature. This is the main reason why big data analytics companies choose python over every option.

#7 Scope of Python for Big Data

Python is an object-oriented language that supports high-level data structures. It allows users to simplify all data operations. Python manages some of the data structures i.e. lists, dictionaries, tuples, sets, etc. Other than this, Python also supports scientific computing operations such as data frames, matrix operations, etc. 

These astonishing features of Python help to enhance the scope of language by enabling it to increase speed of data operations. This makes Python and Big Data the most charming and useful combination. That’s why python a best fit for Big Data.
