    Finally! So we have a little over a month between getting the simulator and first customers running our apps in Duo.

    I expect that most apps will look rather broken on release, but it will be smoothed out eventually.

      Most apps people actually use will look fine because there's a team of mobile devs in all big companies who get paid to keep up with Apple breaking their apps every year with their 'updates' (among other things).

      I mean, don't expect advanced features like consistent smooth scrolling, non-broken UI, absence of animation flickers, cloud sync that works consistently even for paid apps developed by Apple or anybody else but other than that :)

        In plenty of big companies one month is not even enough time to get a new release into production, let alone test and fix the layouts.

          You're right.

          My brain must have blocked out the 'cadence' (oh the corpo speak!) of corporate dev out of self preservation.
