Welcome to iOS8





iOS-7-Messages-004 Last year marked the biggest change for mobile devices with the introduction of a new iOS system. Many had been using the operating system that they were used to for many year and the introduction of a new system took some adjusting and getting used to. Nowit seems that the evolution of iOS is on a fast track. So, what is better about iOS8 that we didn’t have with iOS7? Apple has yet to introduce all of the new features of the operating system, but here is what they have revealed so far.


First, the notifications center has changed. There is an interactive notifications feature. This allows you to do new things like swiping down to quickly reply to a message, even from the lock screen. These types of interactive notifications are very similar to those found in OS X Mavericks. Other features in the interactive notifications section include quickly favorite-ing contacts simply by double-tapping to multitask. In Safari, with this new OS you can look at multiple tabs by simply clicking “tab view,” which is on the top right corner of the iPad. This feature is also available on the brand new Yosemite OS X. Other features include a Mail change where you can use a swiping gesture to go straight from a message you’re writing to your inbox and then easily pop back to the drafted message.


These changes are exciting and usually make things easier, if you are able to adapt and know how to use them. Other new features in iOS8 include a new version of the keyboard. This change is known as Quick Type. It is advanced enough to suggest keywords and it is context and person sensitive. It recognizes other words you type and suggests words appropriate to that conversation. It also looks at who you are talking to or messaging and suggests words that are most appropriate to that conversation.
