Earlier this week, Apple made iOS 7 available for iPhone and iPad owners. So far, end users seem to be installing the new version of the OS at a faster rate than with previous updates. According to some experts, as many as 35 percent of iOS users upgraded to iOS 7 within 24 hours.
TechCrunch reports that some mobile development firms are benefiting from interest in the new operating system: “Users new to iOS 7 are hungry for software that complements it, and those app makers who’ve made the switch to iOS 7-specific designs are seeing big download boosts thanks to both consumer interest and promotional efforts from Apple.”
