A number of official Apple iOS apps are now "optimized for iPhone 6." iMovie, iPhoto, Pages, Keynote, and others now include that text in their web description on iTunes in the compatibility section. Some third-party apps also include the string of text, which reads, in full: "This app is optimized for iPhone 6." It's important to note that it's very possible that the message is merely an odd mistake that's not indicative of Apple's plans, but we'll know for sure on Tuesday at the company's press conference.
Rumors and leaks have long suggested that Apple will unveil the iPhone 5S, a modest upgrade to the outgoing iPhone 5, as well as a less-expensive iPhone 5C in a number of different colors. The last time apps had specific "optimization" for a particular iPhone was with the 5, which introduced a larger 4-inch screen that required developers to tweak their applications for proper support. It's said that Apple has considered making an iPhone with screen sizes up to 6 inches, but rumors say that if such a device were ever to come out, it'd be some time next year. It's also unlikely that a larger iPhone would carry the iPhone 6 moniker. We've reached out to Apple for comment, and we'll update this article appropriately.
