iOS adoption outpaces every other mobile family out there. As iMore reports, 93% of customers have upgraded to iOS 6.x. Just 1% remain on older operating systems.
So why do developers obsess on iOS 5? The iPad 1. It's the little iOS that can. And does. And keeps doing.
Devs continue selling apps targeted to the original iPad and they don't want to cut away an important portion of their market.
I'm told over and over again, "If I go to Auto Layout, I can no longer build for iOS 5." A loyal base of iPad 1 users means developers hesitate to move their code base into modern technologies and that's a shame.
Sadly, Apple doesn't allow devs to fork apps. Imagine freez
