- Manual App Updates and many more .....
1 ) Manual App Updates – Apple said
iOS 7 will be the first operating system to automatically push updates to all
your applications so you’ll never see that red number hanging over your App
Store to remind you to download an update. But in case users prefer managing
which application updates they download, iOS 7 offers a slider that can disable
automatic updates, which can be found in the Settings for the iTunes and App
Stores.
2) Landscape Multitasking – In all
past versions of iOS, double-clicking the home button brought a row of icons at
the bottom of the screen that showed which apps were open. Since multitasking
has changed in iOS 7, letting users see full app previews of all their open
apps, Apple has made it so users can see which apps are open in landscape mode
too, and quit any of the apps simply by swiping them up. Multiple apps can also
be closed at the same time in iOS 7’s landscape multitasking.
3) Apps Ask To Use Microphone – Past iOS builds only asked users if it was OK to access the
phone’s location data, camera or Photos app. In iOS 7, users will see that apps
will also ask permission to access the device’s microphone, which might make
worrywarts less concerned about their privacy.
4) Automatic Day/Night Mode – Much like how GPS devices will automatically switch between day
and night color schemes, Apple has introduced features for its new turn-by-turn
directions in iOS 7 where the app will automatically switch from day to night
mode based on the current time and an ambient light sensor to help judge
whether different modes should be activated sooner or later.
5) Dynamic Font Size – For any
and all apps that support “Dynamic Type,” users can select a font size in iOS 7
that works system wide, simply by visiting the "General" section
under "Settings" and selecting "Font Size."
6) Today Provides Traffic Info – The
Notification Center has been one of the more useful features in iOS, but many
fans don’t necessarily like it. Apple hopes to change their minds in iOS 7 by
making the Notification Center much more personal, and therefore even more
helpful. In the new Today section, which basically lines out a user’s entire
day based on their appointments in Calendar, iOS 7 will also tell you the
weather outside in case you need a jacket or umbrella, but one feature Apple
has overlooked is its ability to provide traffic information on places you
frequently visit, so just like Google Now, iOS 7 will let you know if you need
to give yourself more time to get from A to B.
7) Better Music Controls – In iOS,
double-clicking the home button from the Lock Screen gives you a few music
controls so you can pause, or rewind, fast-forward or skip through songs. In
iOS 7, users can also scrub along the song to get to a certain part directly
from the lock screen.
8) Application Blues And Blueprints – Apple
never gave downloading applications much thought in previous iOS builds, but in
iOS 7, downloading and updating apps isn't only easier, but it’s also more
standardized and organized. Even though apps will automatically update in iOS 7
by default, apps will feature a new blue dot to indicate they’ve been updated,
and new apps that are downloaded also now show a blueprint of Jony Ive’s
Vitruvian Man-esque app design, which centers on exact measurements and
proportions, rather than a dim preview of the actual app.
9) Video Zoom – It may
seem like a small addition – it certainly wasn’t mentioned at Apple’s WWDC
keynote – but being able to pinch to zoom your videos while recording is
actually a major feature in iOS 7. Even though the zooming quality when taking
photos in iOS has never been great, the sheer ability to zoom dynamically
during a video shoot creates a plethora of possibilities when it comes to
creative filming
10) Air Drop -To share
photos or documents with others around you, Air Drop in iOS 7 lets users easily
see contacts and other users around them, and easily share information with a
simple tap. Much better than having to tap someone's phone with yours.
11)
Find My iPhone -Find My iPhone is now much improved for iOS 7.
Users now need their Apple ID and password to turn off Find My iPhone or erase
their device completely. Find My iPhone can also display a custom message, even
after the device is erased, which again requires one's Apple ID and password
for full reactivation.
