iOS 4.2 release changes some built in app process names
by Justin Horn on Nov 2nd, 2010 @ 12:44 amNothing big, just something I noticed. The Contacts and Maps apps are now called Contacts~iphone and Maps~iphone.
At first I thought it was due to the fact iOS 4.2 is the first unified release with the iPad, but why would apps like MobileMail not have the ~iphone extension? Also, not sure why it’s necessary at all since each iOS package is specific for each device. I can’t think of any better explanation, so I’m sticking with my first thought, even though I’m not sure why.
