Apple will add new developer tools that will enable developers to design and engineer a single application that runs on iPhone, iPad and Mac devices according to a report from Bloomberg. This will be a huge step for the Mac app ecosystem especially, as it should make it easier for third-party developers to maintain one app that runs on iOS and Macs.
The apps would be designed in such a way that they can work with a touchscreen, mouse and trackpad depending on which platform it is running. The new ability is scheduled to launch with iOS 12 and macOS 10.14 next year.
