Technology 🙄columnist David Pogue said🙄🙄 that newer smartphones could be nicknamed "app phones"😲😲 aidanfarrugia2004 https://padlet.com/aidanfarrugia2004/hrgprm7ng3u5/wish/175728720 2017-06-08 13:24:15 UTC https://padlet.com/aidanfarrugia2004/hrgprm7ng3u5/wish/175728720 🔫ƝƛƬƖƔЄ ƛƤƤƧ📱 😋Native apps live on the device and are accessed through icons on the device home screen. Native apps are installed through an application store (such as Google Play or Apple’s App Store).😋 They are developed specifically for one platform, and can take full advantage of all the device features — they can use the camera, the GPS, the accelerometer, the compass, the list of contacts, and so on. They can also incorporate gestures (either standard operating-system gestures or new, app-defined gestures). And native apps can use the device’s notification system and can work offline.Mobile Web AppsWeb apps are not real applications;😋 they are really websites that, in many ways, look and feel like native applications🤔, but are not implemented as such. They are run by a browser and typically written in HTML5. Users first access them as they would access any web page: they navigate to a special URL and then have the option of “installing” them on their home screen by creating a bookmark to that page.🤔🤔Web apps became really popular when HTML5 came around and people realized that they can obtain native-like😋 functionality in the browser. Today, as more and more sites use HTML5, the distinction between web apps and regular web pages has become blurry.🤑 aidanfarrugia2004 https://padlet.com/aidanfarrugia2004/hrgprm7ng3u5/wish/175730276 2017-06-08 13:31:49 UTC https://padlet.com/aidanfarrugia2004/hrgprm7ng3u5/wish/175730276 📱𝓗𝓨𝓑𝓡𝓘𝓓 𝓐𝓟𝓟𝓢📡 😋😋Hybrid apps are also popular because they allow crossplatform development and this significantly reduce development costs: 🤔that is, the same HTML code components can be reused on different mobile operating systems.😋 Tools such as PhoneGap and Sencha Touch allow people to design and code across platforms, using the power of HTML.🤔🤔Walgreens provides two very similar hybrid apps— one for Android and the other for iPhone. 🙄🙄Both apps have multiple sections and many native features such as access to notifications and a Refill by scan feature that uses the phone camera to refill prescriptions:🙄 aidanfarrugia2004 https://padlet.com/aidanfarrugia2004/hrgprm7ng3u5/wish/175731314 2017-06-08 13:37:19 UTC https://padlet.com/aidanfarrugia2004/hrgprm7ng3u5/wish/175731314 😬 𝓦𝓔𝓑 𝓐𝓟𝓟𝓢 😬 😝Web apps became really popular when HTML5 came around and people realized that they can obtain native-like functionality in the browser.😝 Today, as more and more sites use HTML5, the distinction between web apps and regular web pages has become blurry.😲😲In 2011 Financial Times withdrew its native app from Apple’s App Store to circumvent subscription fees and maintain closer connection with their subscribers. 🤑😝Instead, it came out with an iPhone web app (app.ft.com): Financial Times web app for iPhoneHorizontal swiping on Financial Times' web appIts web app is, in many ways, hard to distinguish from a native app. 😋😋For instance, there are no visible browser buttons or bars, although it runs in Safari (when accessed from an iPhone). 😲Users can swipe horizontally to move on to new sections of the app.😝 And, due to browser caching, it’s even possible to read the newspaper offline.These are all features that are available in HTML5.😝 aidanfarrugia2004 https://padlet.com/aidanfarrugia2004/hrgprm7ng3u5/wish/175731646 2017-06-08 13:38:59 UTC https://padlet.com/aidanfarrugia2004/hrgprm7ng3u5/wish/175731646 aidanfarrugia2004 https://padlet.com/aidanfarrugia2004/hrgprm7ng3u5/wish/175736966 2017-06-08 14:02:25 UTC https://padlet.com/aidanfarrugia2004/hrgprm7ng3u5/wish/175736966 aidanfarrugia2004 https://padlet.com/aidanfarrugia2004/hrgprm7ng3u5/wish/175738500 2017-06-08 14:09:36 UTC https://padlet.com/aidanfarrugia2004/hrgprm7ng3u5/wish/175738500 aidanfarrugia2004 https://padlet.com/aidanfarrugia2004/hrgprm7ng3u5/wish/175739355 2017-06-08 14:14:37 UTC https://padlet.com/aidanfarrugia2004/hrgprm7ng3u5/wish/175739355 aidanfarrugia2004 https://padlet.com/aidanfarrugia2004/hrgprm7ng3u5/wish/175739766 2017-06-08 14:17:08 UTC https://padlet.com/aidanfarrugia2004/hrgprm7ng3u5/wish/175739766 aidanfarrugia2004 https://padlet.com/aidanfarrugia2004/hrgprm7ng3u5/wish/175740638 2017-06-08 14:22:08 UTC https://padlet.com/aidanfarrugia2004/hrgprm7ng3u5/wish/175740638 aidanfarrugia2004 https://padlet.com/aidanfarrugia2004/hrgprm7ng3u5/wish/175740700 2017-06-08 14:22:26 UTC https://padlet.com/aidanfarrugia2004/hrgprm7ng3u5/wish/175740700 aidanfarrugia2004 https://padlet.com/aidanfarrugia2004/hrgprm7ng3u5/wish/175741360 2017-06-08 14:26:10 UTC https://padlet.com/aidanfarrugia2004/hrgprm7ng3u5/wish/175741360 aidanfarrugia2004 https://padlet.com/aidanfarrugia2004/hrgprm7ng3u5/wish/175741414 2017-06-08 14:26:25 UTC https://padlet.com/aidanfarrugia2004/hrgprm7ng3u5/wish/175741414 aidanfarrugia2004 https://padlet.com/aidanfarrugia2004/hrgprm7ng3u5/wish/175741437 2017-06-08 14:26:32 UTC https://padlet.com/aidanfarrugia2004/hrgprm7ng3u5/wish/175741437 aidanfarrugia2004 https://padlet.com/aidanfarrugia2004/hrgprm7ng3u5/wish/175741461 2017-06-08 14:26:38 UTC https://padlet.com/aidanfarrugia2004/hrgprm7ng3u5/wish/175741461 aidanfarrugia2004 https://padlet.com/aidanfarrugia2004/hrgprm7ng3u5/wish/175741482 2017-06-08 14:26:45 UTC https://padlet.com/aidanfarrugia2004/hrgprm7ng3u5/wish/175741482 aidanfarrugia2004 https://padlet.com/aidanfarrugia2004/hrgprm7ng3u5/wish/175741504 2017-06-08 14:26:52 UTC https://padlet.com/aidanfarrugia2004/hrgprm7ng3u5/wish/175741504 aidanfarrugia2004 https://padlet.com/aidanfarrugia2004/hrgprm7ng3u5/wish/175741527 2017-06-08 14:26:58 UTC https://padlet.com/aidanfarrugia2004/hrgprm7ng3u5/wish/175741527 aidanfarrugia2004 https://padlet.com/aidanfarrugia2004/hrgprm7ng3u5/wish/175741540 2017-06-08 14:27:04 UTC https://padlet.com/aidanfarrugia2004/hrgprm7ng3u5/wish/175741540 Teacher's feedback https://padlet.com/aidanfarrugia2004/hrgprm7ng3u5/wish/176822406 interesting information but you could have used the full potential of the padlet tool by including video clips and links to websites]]> 2017-06-19 07:29:23 UTC https://padlet.com/aidanfarrugia2004/hrgprm7ng3u5/wish/176822406
