1. battery usage indicator
It is probably the most common complaint about the iPhone: The battery discharges too damn fast. This is, of course, depends on exactly what you do with it, but how to know if users prioritize dimming the screen, stopping a particular application or turn off Background Refresh App?
In IOS 8 will finally get some guidance. I Phone settings provide a way to check exactly which applications and features are draining the battery. With this guidance, users can selectively change your settings or uninstall appropriate to maximize your battery applications.
Developers will surely find useful feature as well, as it should help to make their applications more efficient. In short, this could be the welcome novelty in IOS August.
2. New Keyboard
Nothing is more fundamental to the iPhone keyboard on your screen – iOS and 8, an update is obtained by typing prediction, suggesting several options for the next word as you type. This is a feature that has been on Android for a while, but Apple says that its app is better – as it learns what is likely to say to different friends and colleagues.
Meanwhile, Apple’s letting developers offer their own keyboards. You may have tried Swype for Android, for example, using an algorithm that allows you to slide around a keyboard instead of tap; the company has already said it will make your keyboard available for iOS.
3. Continuity
Apple took the idea of collaboration through the cloud to a new level with a new feature called Handoff, part of his concept of “continuity.” If you have an iPhone and a Mac, you’ll be able to start a task on a device (eg, composing an email) and finish at the other. Since the devices are aware of each other, all you have to do is press a button, and it works on the iPad, too.
Continuity also has a couple of bonuses: First, AirDrop work between Macs and iOS devices. Second, using your iPhone as a personal hotspot has never been easier. No configuration required – the iPhone just know when you need to connect your Mac.
4. Widgets
Here’s another update that Android has had a lock for years: widgets, made possible by “extensible” of iOS 8 which allows applications to share data with other applications and functions.
Do not get too excited – Widgets reside in the notification center, not the home screen. But his arrival in iOS is a great improvement, and if Android is any indication, you can expect the floodgates to open for these little ones, “glance able” mini-applications that iOS 8 shooting in the fall
5.Lock screen apps suggestion
In iOS 8 users will notice a new icon on the iPhone lock screen that looks like the App Store. Slide your finger up and see suggestions of applications based on your location. For example, if you’re on the street from Starbucks, you may see Starbucks app.
The feature could be a new path to discovery application (which can be a problem for applications that are not in the Top 100), but we will wait to see how this system from Apple, vendors and developers work.
