Link: Part of the problem is iOS itself…
Apps need constant maintenance to just keep running and working because, else they break.
This is the kind of thing that keeps me away from iOS/Mac development every time I think about it.
Put a simple web app online 10 years ago, and it can still function just fine today… perhaps with zero changes (depending). But man the work to keep up with iOS/Watch OS/Mac OS looks to be pretty spectacular.
