iPhone X has a 5.8-inch OLED full screen, which is one of the biggest selling point in it. We have never been such an experience on the iPhone, so this gives us the greatest freshness. I believe when we play in the new machine , Certainly will want to look around, the interface of the past in the new screen will be what effect it.
However, once you try this out, you quickly find the problem: a considerable part of the application, its interface is completely optimized for iPhone X. Reflected in the specific visual effects, that is the top of the screen that the two large fillet space Not used, showing black, and the original camera into the deep one.
If that's the case, the more serious application screen may also be squeezed in the middle of the screen, leaving a circle around the big black side.This situation, the most common in the game application.Many people's enthusiasm, Suddenly poured a large basin of cold water. IPhone X have been announced for several months, why developers are not ready yet?
As a result, people are beginning to worry that they are in fact resistant to the changes that developers bring to iPhone X. If developers are not working together, the actual experience with iPhone X will not be good.
Developers frustration
Users are concerned that in fact, developers are helpless.Many applications in the iPhone X will be like this, really because developers are not well adapted.However, this is not the developer of the iPhone X what a big dissatisfaction Although iPhone X was released in September of this year so far, many applications are not well adapted to the new machine, which is a bit unusual but in fact still extenuating.
It is understood that the reason why developers move so slow this year, in large part because the iPhone X compared with the previous models, it is too different for developers, iPhone X can be said to bring ' So far the most astonishing changes in the iPhone interface. "Although developers have said that iPhone X adaptation is not difficult on the technical level, but the design level, to solve the problem too much.
In short, since the iPhone X has brought changes in the interface, it means that developers must redesign their application interface, especially for independent developers who are working on multiple projects at the same time , These changes will undoubtedly increase the cost of a lot of.Not only have to publish the application to be updated, the project has been made to half have to be modified.Many often the change style, or over, developers need these 'degrees' above Find a balance.
According to Apple's open user interface guidelines, iPhone X has the same screen width as the iPhone 8 but higher, making it 20% more space for developers, but they can not simply extend the application interface because The top of the screen is two rounded design.Apple said that if you do not make use of these two fillets, it will make the application interface is particularly cramped, but how to use it? Developers are still looking for the best solution.
As we just said, game applications are particularly disadvantageous in this regard.Mobile games as a graphical, complex interface applications, if you want to re-interactive design, the workload is too large.And it is important, that is, vast Most games are used 16: 9 ratio, to fit the new iPhone X aspect ratio, the same is not simple. coupled with the resolution of the iPhone X even more than the Department of iPhones iPhone is much larger, the black side of the phenomenon It is inevitable.
Even for normal applications, the phenomenon of black border, misplacement, and instability can also occur without a proper adaptation, which is quite common on the whole.
Only wait
Not long ago, one industry insider said that it is not the time to rush into the iPhone X, wait a few months for most developers to do the adaptation work, and then buy it later. That's it, but he does say what the developers are facing right now.
Fortunately, those commonly used applications, the adaptation is basically already done, and this can be assured.
iPhone X has been strong since its launch, and Apple is also actively guaranteeing availability.It is conceivable that the iPhone X user base will not be small.Therefore, developers must be optimized for the iPhone X to meet the demand, or else will Cause dissatisfaction.
So even though iPhone X is not so appealing and worry-free as developers are still in the process of preparing for it, they need more time. Now that iPhone X's friends are ready to do it, they're waiting patiently We might as well look forward to now, to adapt to the iPhone X screen after those applications and games, how they will use the extra screen space, and the two fillet it?
