Technical Information on IPhone • Status Bar - at the upper edge - Display the status bar as much as possible • Navigation Bar – below the status bar Tool Bar – at the bottom edge • Tab Bar – at the bottom edge • Make the minimum size of a tappable element - iPhone 44x44px, iPad 66x66px or 88x88px
- 9. Screen sizes of IOS-based devices Note: Pixel is the appropriate unit of measurement to use when discussing the size of a device screen or the size of an icon you create in an image-editing application. Point is the appropriate unit of measurement to use when discussing the size of an area that is drawn onscreen. On a standard-resolution device screen, one point equals one pixel, but other resolutions might dictate a different relationship. On a Retina display, for example, one point equals two pixels
- 10. Most Important Information On IPhone • User see one screen at a time (an app has a single window but can have multiple.) • Users / Target : Determine the main purpose of the App. • Create an App definition statement: Determine who your target is and what the main function of your App is, and how it benefits them. • Orientation can change, landscape orientation should be both-sided. • Buttons / Target sizes : Create a user friendly amount of space between buttons (iPhone 44x44px, iPad 66x66px or 88x88px)
- 11. Most Important Information On IPhone • Add physicality and realism (the voice recorder may look like a real microphone) • Do not fill the form with a lot of elements. •Do not ask a lot of questions (regarding updates, saving etc.) •Icons : app & store icons + launch images required. •Start instantly. •Always be prepared to stop. •Never quit an app programmatically.
