What is an app?

This may seem like a rather stupid question, but it’s worth being clear how an app is different to a website. As we’ve seen, a website is stored on a server, and is then downloaded by your computer or phone and displayed in a browser. An app is different, in that the code for the app is stored on your device, meaning that it can run completely offline.

Having said that, apps often have an online component, enabling them to provide services such as messaging or getting information like weather updates.

So while websites are stored on servers and are downloaded to the users’ device, apps are stored on the device themselves. This is close to the original software model where all our software was stored locally on our computer.

In this section we’ll be making apps for iOS, which is the Operating System that runs on iPhones and iPads.
