The Effect of The iPhone To Different Industries


It has been years since the first iPhone was introduced by Apple's legendary founder, Steve Jobs. It was a device that was well accepted by the young and the old. Though there were many criticisms when it came out. But, a lot of people believed Steve Jobs when he said that "this device will change everything."

It indeed changed a lot of things in our world today. For that reason, almost all people love and have an iPhone. Today, this device has sold millions of units already making it one of the most successful tech products of all time. It functions not only as a mobile device. It is also a great portable computing machine. You basically just install an app from the App Store and you get a different functionality already. There are hundreds of thousands of apps to choose from by the way. Each of them gives the iPhone a special set of features.

Because of the endless possibilities the iPhone has opened up with the help of its App Store, different industries have embraced such technology for use in their work. These industries require special tasks to function and the iPhone could easily do them just by installing a certain app or adding a few accessories.

Health Industry

In the past years, there has been a growing number of iPhone usage in hospitals. In fact, a recent research shows that around 60% of doctors prefer using the iPhone for their regular day to day medical work. You could also notice this change in the industry by the different accessories that were made specifically for the medical field. These accessories could replace certain tools in the hospital environment and doctors are very much taking advantage of this possibility.


Education

In the field of education, teachers are no longer sticking to the traditional method of teaching kids and students. They have incorporated the use of iPhones to the way they teach their courses and lessons. This has paved way to more interesting and fun discussions that help students.

On the other hand, in most universities students are now using smart phones to replace a lot of books, notes and other physical things that were used. This device could be used for research, web browsing and a lot more. All of which are essential to students. There is even a dedicated Education category in the App Store that students could use. In addition to that, Apple also has the iTunes University available in the iTunes store. This is a great place to study and learn a lot of other valuable things out of school.


Investigation and Security

This industry uses the iPhone in a more advanced way than some do. This industry is comprised of security agents, detectives, investigation agencies and the likes. Most of them use iPhone tracking to monitor the necessary people whom they are dealing with. This kind of tracking help make their work easier by helping them do their regular monitoring in a more efficient way.


Looking at how those three industries have changed over the past few years, it is very obvious how the iPhone contributed a lot to that change. The iPhone revolution has just started. For sure, that will still continue over the coming years. Many people and industries will find more great uses for it.
