IOS 10:What’s New

Apple Inc. released their 10th IPhone Operating System (IOS) on Tuesday, September 13, 2016. The IOS 10 is compatible for the IPhone’s 5-7, the IPad’s Mini, Pro, and Air, and the IPod Touch 6th Generation. The highly anticipated software update provides the biggest, most personal, and technically advanced release yet to its users.
Most of the features added in this operating system add more of a way to express yourself in a professional, and personal way. The overall look of the design is pretty standard, the applications, imaging, and text are the same, but there are now added functions to personalize the color of the screen’s display.
Remember that light clicking sound you herd in the previous IOS software, IOS 10 has upgraded the sound, adding it with a little more bass, something slight, but plays a big part into the personalization of the new IOS software
The notifications and control panel are viewed differently as the screens to view them have been split into two. The new customization allows users to swipe left and right to toggle between the notifications and controls, that now allow a variety of different widgets, and color. The “Maps” application has a new design, but it is now open to third-party applications. In retrospect, users needed to go inside the application to get directions, and possibly make a call to a restaurant. Now, you can make a = reservation on the “OpenTable” app, and summon an Uber to take you there, inside of the “Maps” app.
Apple Music’s redesign is more about making it simple for users to operate. Its more navigable, and will be frequently updated with the latest music.
Siri is available in third party apps now, giving it the ability to be more personal with the users and more user friendly. It is also rumored that Siri will be available in some popular applications in the late IOS 10 updates. Those annoying apps that were preloaded onto all of the IOS devices, are a thing of the past. IOS 10 allows users to delete the applications from the home screen and its used data from the phone to allow users with even more personalization, and hopefully storage.
The Photo application has a new, more manageable setting, that allows users to see their pictures in more of side by side photo albums, rather than a list. One of the most talked about advances in the IOS 10 are in the messages! IOS 10 allows users to be the most personalized in their messages than ever before. You are now available to play music from the “Music” app, and send Videos from YouTube, without having to leave the application. You can change the way your message bubbles look, with the new features like invisible ink, loud, slam, and gentle, which all add a different personalization to your text. You can also send fireballs, heartbeats, sketches, and more! You can even draw over videos. Emoji’s have been updated, with new emoji’s, and different variations of the old ones, you can also tap to replace a word with an emoji when it is highlighted.
If congratulations are in order you can send your text along with a full screen animation as well, and you can even send a message in your own handwriting.
