Third-party developers will be able to release their iOS apps on the Mac starting this fall. This might seem like a small change, but it requires a ton of radical iOS apps will run on macOS. The new apps will be installed directly from the Mac App Store, with multiple iOS apps able to run side-by-side alongside macOS apps. Developers can opt to not offer their iOS apps on the Mac. If you are seeking to run iOS apps on your laptop, here are the 20 best iOS emulators to run iOS apps on Mac and Windows. There are nine most popular mobile operating systems in the world, including Android, iOS, BlackBerry OS, Bada, MeekGo OS, Windows Mobile, and others.
Are the Pages and Numbers apps that I originally bought on iTunes for iPad for $9.99 each transferrable to or able to run on 2011 MacBook Pro running Yosemite 10.10.5? The mac app store wants $19.99 each to download. I thought the new operating system was supposed to run the iPhone and iPad apps. My Mac shows the apps in iCloud drive but only opens them in preview. Any way to run these without paying twice for the same app, also curious what apps other people are using in place of these. I use them mostly for basic lists or to open word/excel docs. Thanks.
MacBook Pro (15-inch Late 2011), OS X Yosemite (10.10.5)

Use Software Update
- Choose System Preferences from the Apple menu , then click Software Update to check for updates.
- If any updates are available, click the Update Now button to install them. Or click “More info” to see details about each update and select specific updates to install. You might be asked to enter your administrator password.
- When Software Update says that your Mac is up to date, the installed version of macOS and all of its apps are also up to date. That includes Safari, Music, Photos, Books, Messages, Mail, Calendar, and FaceTime.
- To automatically install future updates, including for apps that you got from the App Store, select “Automatically keep my Mac up to date.” Your Mac will notify you when updates require it to restart, so you can always choose to install those later.
