iOS 9 Version For Older Models Being Built?

apple logoIt does look as though there has been much that has been going on concerning Apple’s upcoming iOS 9. So far, we have heard that there might be a Home app with the operating system, not to mention the use of the “San Francisco” font, in addition to Apple Maps transit directions being thrown into the mix, and of course, whispers of split-screen multitasking on the iPad being part of the deal. The latest rumor? Apple might be working on a version of the iOS 9 that will work on older Apple products.

A report has been published that mentions of how Apple intends to optimize the next build of its mobile OS for iPhones and iPads that are now part of the AARP group. Rather than coming up with a single version of iOS 9 that will see the butchering of selected features where older hardware is concerned, it is believed that Apple could introduce a “core version” of iOS 9 which would specifically target devices that run on the A5 chipset.

Features which play nice with the core version of iOS 9 will then be implemented on older models on at a time, which bodes well for those who have decided to skip several upgrade cycles. As iOS 9 ought to be previewed by Apple next month at WWDC, we are starting to get impatient for the September release.
