With the release of iOS7 sometime this fall, Apple users
will see big changes in the most popular operating system for phones and
tablets. Although not all the new
features have been divulged by Apple, they have shared some significant ones.
Control Center
Icons on the control center have been given an overhaul;
most noticeably, they appear more flat and have slight changes to their colors
and fonts. One of the bigger changes is
a translucent bar that you can swipe from the bottom. It allows you to control more items quickly
such as airplane mode, brightness, and the integrated flashlight. The music options will still be available on
this tool bar. In addition, a
full-screen notifications bar is available in the lock screen so you don’t have
to go into individual apps.
Camera and Photos
The camera feature has some new options including adding
different shapes to pictures and using different lenses to change the
appearance of pictures. Zooming in on
videos will now be available by pinching the screen out just like on the camera
mode. The photo gallery will now organize your pictures into “moments” by
location, putting all the pictures from a specific event together for easier
viewing.
Music
The music from the cloud will now be visible on your phone
alongside the music stored internally.
When holding your phone horizontally, you will be able to see all your
tracks by swiping sideways and touching the albums you want to zoom in on. With the new iOS7, Apple will also be releasing
iTunes Radio, an integrated music system that has been in the works for quite
some time.
Safari
This browser look has changed slightly, most evidently in
the URL bar design which has been condensed, allowing for more to be seen on
the screen. Also, being limited to 8
open tabs is no longer a concern, with the cloud, tabs are almost limitless.
Siri
Siri will no longer be only a woman; you will be able to
change her voice to a male voice or to different languages. Siri will also be “smarter” and understand
more commands such as “turn up brightness”.
Along with all of these new changes in the operating system
arriving this fall, you can be assured that Apple has some more features tucked
up its sleeves.
