    Top Answer:The best thing about the product is that it provides seamless integration.
    Top Answer:The software updates are cheap, but we would need the hardware to do it. The hardware is quite expensive. I rate the pricing an eight or a nine out of ten.
    Top Answer:The share password menu doesn’t come up easily when I want to share passwords between my devices. Other than that, it's a really well-designed product.

    Overview

    iOS SDK is the software development kit released by Apple in 2008. Its purpose is to give third-party iOS developers all the resources and tools they require to develop, test, debug, and distribute their iOS applications. To be eligible to make use of the iOS SDK, a developer would need to join one of the Apple iOS Developer Programs.

    Codename One is a way of creating native mobile applications for Android, iOS, BlackBerry and Windows Phone, using the same Java source code. Android native apps use Java, but iOS, BlackBerry and Windows Phone do not. Codename One makes translations of your Java code into the native code for each of these platforms, sometimes resulting in faster apps than the native versions. Codename One is open source for both commercial and non-commercial usage.
