Ques 2. What are the features of the iOS Platform?

  • The iPhone offers multitasking capabilities. On an iOS device, you can easily switch between apps using the multitasking feature or a multi-finger gesture.
  • iOS helps you easily integrate social network interactions with your app by displaying an activity stream and sharing content.
  • Apple's iCloud service allows users to store data on the Internet. It offers a high level of encryption and a backup option to ensure the user does not lose data.
  • Apple's in-app purchases are available on all platforms, offering users additional services and materials including digital items (iOS, iPad, macOS), subscriptions, and premium content.
  • You can see all of your app alerts in the Notification Center in iOS. However, the notification settings can be modified.
  • iOS is a closed system. The source code of Apple's apps isn't available for developers, and iPhone and iPad owners can't modify the code on their devices. This makes iOS-powered devices harder to hack.

Ques 3. Explain the Architecture of iOS.

iOS operates in a Layered structure.

iOS Architecture is comprised of four layers, each of which offers a programming framework for creating applications that operate on top of the hardware. Communication will be enhanced by the layers between the Application Layer and the Hardware Layer. A lower-level layer provides the services that all applications require, while an upper-level layer (or high-level layer) provides graphics and interface-related services.

  • Core OS ( or Application) Layer: Core OS Layer sits directly on top of the device hardware and is the bottom layer of the iPhone OS stack. In addition to basic operating system services, such as memory management, handling of file systems, and threads, this layer provides low-level networking, access to external accessories, etc.
  • Service Layer: Its purpose is to design the services that upper layers or users demand. Among its other essential features are block objects, Grand Central Dispatch, in-app purchases, and iCloud storage. The service layer has been strengthened by the addition of ARC Automatic Reference Counting.
  • Media Layer: It handles media like video, audio, graphics, etc. The media layer will allow us to use all graphics, video, and audio technology of the system.
  • Cocoa Touch Layer: It is also known as the application layer. This is the place where frameworks are created when applications are built. In addition, it functions as the interface for iOS users to work with the operating system. This includes touch and motion capabilities.

Ques 4. What do you mean by property in iOS?

Properties are basically values that are associated with a class, struct, or enum.  They can be thought of as "sub-variables," i.e., parts of another object.

Example:

struct Building  {    

    var name: String = ""

}

var apartment = Building()

apartment.name = "Prestige"

In the above code, we created a structure called Building. One of its properties is called name, a String whose initial value is empty.

Ques 5. Define the classification of Properties in iOS.

Stored Properties: This type of property can be used to store constant or variable values as instances and is usually provided by classes and structures.

class Programmer {    

    var progName: String    

    let progLanguage: String    

    var totalExperience = 0    

    var secondLanguage: String?

}

 

Computed properties: These properties can be used to calculate values instead of storing them and are usually provided by classes, enumerations, and structures.

struct Angle {    

    var degrees: Double = 0    

    var rads: Double {        

        get {            

             return degrees * .pi / 180        

        }        

        set(newRads) {            

              degrees = newRads * 180 / .pi        

        }    

    }

}

Ques 6. Tell the difference between atomic and nonatomic properties in iOS.

Atomic Property: It is the default property and ensures a valid value will be returned from the getter or set by the setter. This ensures that only one thread can access the getter/setter of a given property at a time and that all other threads must wait until the first thread releases the getter/setter. Despite being thread-safe, it is not fast, since it ensures that the process is completely completed.

Non-Atomic Property: With non-atomic properties, multiple threads can access the getter/setter method of a given property at the same time, so the potential for inconsistency between values exists. They come with enhanced access, but no guarantee of the return value.

Ques 7. What are different types of iOS Application States?

  • Not running: In the Not Running state, an application has either not been launched or has been closed/shut down by the system.
  • Inactive: A brief state of inactivity occurs while the app is leaving or entering its active state. Despite running in the foreground, it isn't yet ready to accept user input or events. This means that the application remains inactive at this time.
  • Active: The Active state indicates that the app is running in the foreground and receiving events. This is usually the normal mode for foreground apps and the User Interface is accessible.
  • Background: During this state, the application's user interface is hidden, but it continues to run in the background of the iOS system. Applications usually pass through this state prior to being suspended.
  • Suspended: In this case, the application is in the background but is not running code. However, it stays in my memory. Under low memory conditions, the system can delete apps in the suspended state without warning.

Ques 8. What is an iOS developer and what are his responsibilities?

  • The iOS developer should be skilled in two programming languages i.e., Objective-C and Swift.   
  • Clean, efficient coding for iOS applications.
  • Ensure clean and secure codes by performing troubleshooting and bug fixes for applications.
  • The development and deployment of advanced app features as well as the maintenance and improvement of existing features.

Ques 18. What is MVC? Tell about its implementation in iOS.

MVC (Model View Controller) is a design pattern that defines how logic will be separated when the user interface is implemented. In iOS, UIView is the base class provided by Apple for all views, and UIViewController is provided to support the Controller, which listens to events in a View and updates it when data changes.
