iOS is the core of Apple's mobile platform, designed to be fast, intuitive and secure. With an App Store hosting millions of apps, it offers a rich user experience for both users and developers.
The system has evolved since its debut on the iPhone in 2007 and shares foundations with siblings like iPadOS, watchOS and tvOS. The emphasis is on seamless integration with Apple's ecosystem and a regular update cycle that brings new features and security improvements each year.
Developers appreciate iOS for its extensive APIs, modern language stack and powerful development tools. There are many resources and frameworks that make it possible to build everything from simple everyday apps to advanced experiences like augmented reality.
