What's new with iOS 7?

A few days after its public release and terminals more than 200 million who use it, it is time to make the point about iOS 7.

 

I would start by avoiding any comment on the new design, some, as others do not like, it is a matter of taste. Apple wants in the passage of a graphical update more applications which in my opinion will not be held because nobody wants to make the effort to reach the new 'look' Apple... in any case it is no great news. Do even if you are new in this new version?

Here are 2 that I have selected:

' notification system ': Finally the possibility of sending a notification without posting to the user! This this feature on Android 1.6 version was not offered by Apple for battery conservation reasons. So it took to wait 5 years and 6 major versions of iOS for testing of AB or make possible changes to an application without user intervention.«» search history ': an application will be able to update your content on a regular basis, full-time or you've been waiting for 5 minutes on the subway that load the application of new content, which will now be "updated", an ideal feature for news and social networking applications.

You will notice that these 2 features will actively use your iDevice when it is in standby mode and the autonomy of the batteries has little progress since 5 years ago. Therefore, it's over the time or Apple explained to us that the battery was vital for the user. It is time to propose new possibilities to developers here, open the valves and I hope that developers will be "good citizens". This obviously at the expense of the user, who will charge your phone every night (if it is not already the case...).

I have also noticed a very interesting feature that we talk a lot in haploid, is iBeacon.  iBeacon allows you to convert any iDevice in proximity to other iDevices. I'm going to imagine the possibilities this opens up for physical stores or museums. However, I am afraid that this excellent feature is suffering the same fate that the book must have a substantial expansion in the USA but I use almost non-existent in France.

From my point of view, iOS 7 is a great opportunity for brands to improve their applications in Android because they are too often ruled in favor of iOS and market shares significantly for Android!
