Apple Updates 'Apple Store' App With iPhone 6 Support

by

Apple today updated its Apple Store app for the iPhone 6 and 6 Plus, adapting the app for the two larger-screened devices. The new version of the app also includes an iOS compatibility update.

While the iPhone 6 update doesn't bring a lot of visual changes, it has a much cleaner look due to the fact that it's no longer artificially zoomed in, as seen in the comparison screenshot below.

Apple's last major update to the Apple Store app came in early September, redesigning the look of the app and making it easier for users to make purchases.

The Apple Store app can be downloaded from the App Store for free. [Direct Link]

too bad Apple didn't tell Apple to update their apps screen sizes prior to the delivery of the new iPhones.

Even though most early reviewers said they couldn't tell a difference between native apps and scaled ones, the difference is obvious to me. Looking forward to seeing more major apps bring iPhone 6 updates.

Now, wouldn't it be wonderful if you could use Touch ID to access your account information in the app, without having to manually type your password every time??:apple::apple:

Kinda expected it on launch day. Really? It took this long for you to update your own app for your own phone?
