I suggest that the entire "Further reading" section be removed because it's hopelessly outdated (do we really need to list programming guides for iPhone 3 when everyone uses iPhone 14 now?). 93.72.49.123 (talk) 13:57, 17 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Those links were definitely not great, so I endorse this removal.

But in general, we should be careful about removing things just because they're old. I remember an old Stanford OpenCourseWare course on iOS development (was on iTunes U), which is still to this day a fantastic resource on learning Objective-C and UIKit. Old doesn't necessarily mean out of date, and it would be nice if someone could find a link to that old Stanford course (I haven't been able to). DFlhb (talk) 16:01, 17 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I would be more careful to follow WP:FURTHERREADING. The course wouldn't fit the scope of Wikipedia per WP:NOTAGUIDE. – The Grid (talk) 17:08, 18 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Team-B-Vital Improvement Drive

Hello all!

This article has been chosen as this fortnight's effort for WP:Discord's #team-b-vital channel, a collaborative effort to bring Vital articles up to a B class if possible, similar to WP:Articles for Improvement. This effort will run for up to a fortnight, ending early if the article is felt to be at B-class or impossible to further improve. Articles are chosen by a quick vote among interested chatters, with the goal of working together on interesting Vital articles that need improving.

Thank you! Remagoxer (talk) 00:00, 3 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Split to Security and Privacy of iOS

I recommend splitting the section titled "Security and Privacy" into a new article as it contains too much detail that would be better off on its own. Maybe also reducing the detail in the "Jailbreaking" section. Please discuss. Mseingth2133444 (Did I mess up? Let me know here) 16:07, 4 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I think it's useful information to have, but I agree that it might be better off in its own article, together with the jailbreak stuff. The primary reason for my thinking is that it's more technical information that requires a slightly deeper level of technical understanding, which clashes a bit with the rest of the article.

We can always transclude lighter, more summarized parts from the new security article into the iOS article and slap a hatnote on it that refers to the new security article. ConcurrentState (talk) 18:23, 4 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Does anyone oppose or can we move the content? Mseingth2133444 (talk/contribs) 23:42, 5 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I'd say go ahead and be bold. This talk page doesn't seem that active and if it turns out to be contentious it's easily reversed and discussed. ConcurrentState (talk) 03:06, 6 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
