Apple and SAP to establish healthcare apps for iPhone, iPad

Apple Inc. and SAP SE are joining up to deliver software for iPhones and iPads, introducing a new avenue for Apple to reach healthcare agencies at a time when sales of its mobile devices have tapered.


SAP will establish apps specifically designed for Apple’s iOS operating system for physicians and industrial field technicians. The 2 companies will issue a software development kit by the end of the year to let SAP customers and consultants write native apps for Apple devices that take advantage of features like location and touch sign-in.


The deal has the potential to pursue millions of software developers and sell millions of devices, Apple CEO Tim Cook and SAP CEO Bill McDermott said in an interview.
