Device Previews
One of the many hurdles we will overcome is the differences between the four main Apple product categories. These categories are as follows:
- Mac – iMac, Mac Pro, MacBook, anything that runs macOS, even Hackintosh
- iPad – Mini, regular, Air, Pro, all of them
- iPhone – Mini, Pro, Pro Max, all iPhones
- Apple Watch – small, big, old, or new
The obvious thing you will notice is that they get smaller and smaller. They naturally have different purposes; an Apple Watch won’t replace a Mac and vice versa. That is why the next eight chapters are grouped into pairs, one for each product category. We will uncover the design decisions and restrictions we have when creating our applications. Let’s take a look at the settings in each product category:
