Only for iOS: the best applications that will never be on Android
Ios / / December 20, 2019
Developers prefer iOS
iOS developers more interesting than Android. This is not news, a lot of cool applications first of all come to iOS and only a few months later appear in Google Play. And at times and remain exclusive to iOS. Why it happens? It's very simple: it is in the solvency of users. Android is still deep in piracy, and this primarily affects developers. Android users simply do not consider it necessary to pay for applications and games. Why, if they can be downloaded and installed from any source. Google this does not preclude, but would deny access to a software to bypass the Google Play.
As a result, developers create serious unprofitable projects, since, if the application is more expensive than the dollar, it will simply ignore. Some studios come out of this situation by creating a shareware application: in the course are banners and domestic purchases. Members are to blame that for a normal game now it is necessary to stock crystals, coins, and other nonsense, which is already pretty tired. But while Google will not fight piracy, normal applications can be expected.
6 best exclusives for iOS
I have selected six great apps for iOS, which hardly ever get it on Google Play. Some of them are free, the couple has a frightening price tag, but believe me, they are worth it.
1. Hyperlapse
Price: Free
The best attachment to shoot time-lapse video from Instagram founders. There is nothing superfluous: to shoot, just press one button. With ready roll you can play, adjust the speed, then save or send directly to Facebook and Instagram. Standard application "Camera" in the iPhone is also able to shoot in the art hyperlapse, but without setting the speed and digital stabilization.
The app is free and available only to iPhone owners. Somehow, in the two years it has not got to Google Play.
2. Astropad
it attachment - a must-have for iPad Pro owners. By installing it on Mac and iPad, we get a complete graphic tablet. After synchronization on the iPad screen opens MacOS interface, which means that you can work in a familiar Photoshop and Illustrator. In a recent update appeared Apple Pencil support, the application recognizes the angle and degree of pressing the pen. Astropad works perfectly, without delays and deadlocks in 60 fps. Moreover, the tablet can be connected either by cable Lightning, and on Wi-Fi.
Be sure to do a full review of this application, but for now everyone can buy it for 2290 rubles. Expensive? Of course, but it is worth paying for such opportunities. For Android, of course, Astropad unavailable.
3. Photoshop Fix
Price: Free
It is a powerful tool for retouching available iPhone and iPad owners. With so many tools like plastics, smoothing and adjustments can seriously edit the photo. And Photoshop Fix lets you work with photos in full resolution, not limited to 2000 × 2000 pixels. Again, the image can be sent for revision to the full Photoshop CC, while the app will save all changes in the layers.
Photoshop Fix is free, and why it is still not on Android, it is not clear.
4. Duet Display
Price: 749 rubles
One more attachmentThat should definitely be among iPad owners. By the way, fun fact: Astropad and Duet Display developed the former Apple employees. To work Duet Display will require the application on the Mac and iPad. The developers abandoned the wireless synchronization in order to avoid lag, so that the needs Lightning cable. This will also charge the tablet during use. After synchronization device system will treat the iPad as a full-fledged external display: it can drag the window to open the program in full screen. Excellent application huge iPad Pro.
Duet Display is working not only with the Mac, but with computers on Windows. But with Android is not friendly - perhaps because the application is worth 1190 rubles.
5. Ulysses
I will not lie if I say that this best text editor for journalists, writers and bloggers. Minimalistic interface, easy to work with library and markup Markdown. And, of course, iCloud support, thanks to which you can sketch text on the road on the iPad, and in the office of issue on the Mac. An indispensable tool for a journalist, but it costs a lot - 1 890 rubles.
6. Procreate
Price: 749 rubles
This is the best drawing tool available for the iPad. Not a complete Illustrator, of course, but something. A simple interface, a lot of tools, Apple Pencil support. In this case, you can create up to 20 layers, and export directly to the Creative Cloud. That is, make a sketch on the iPad, you can send it back for revision in Illustrator and re-throw to the plate to detail drawing on it. Procreate worth 459 rubles, which is not cheap, of course, but if you buy the iPad is not just for watching TV shows, then this is a great purchase.
iOS allows you to create
Of course, in the selection got a very small number of exclusives for iOS. I did not write about the games and other applications, of which there are many. If you notice, the article focuses on the application in which you can create content, whether it's a photo or graphics. Yes, the application does not come cheap, but they can significantly enhance the ability iOS-devices, not limited to watching movies on the couch.
As for Android, it is still a level of application is not there and is not expected. Google Play is full of various trash, abundant advertising and IAP. And, again, as long as Google does not win piracy level applications will not budge.
