Some Best iOS 8 Features You Need to Know:
(1) Battery Management Gauge
The battery drainage has been the main problem of iPhone. This exactly depends on how you use the phone. But how can you get the idea that, which feature is draining the battery real fast? Is it the brightness, or a background running app? In iOS 8, all of you will be able to detect which feature is eating how much of power of your phone so that, you can manage and shut down the apps which are draining your battery.
(2) Continuity
Apple has developed a new idea of team up through cloud called as Handoff, part of its “Continuity” concept. Simply, if you own an iPhone and a Mac then you are going to have a special feature of starting a task in one gadget and ending it up in second, for example, composing a mail on iPhone and sending it from Mac.
(3) Camera features
This is counted as the main app of every smartphone. Apple has always kept its camera app a bit simpler and easy to use but this time we are going to see couple of additional features in Camera app which will be: a three seconds timer and time-lapse capture (a bit opposite to the slow motion of iOS 7).
(4) New Keyboard(s)
The predictive typing has been in Android from quite a while and now Apple has also shown its interest to this great feature in their iOS 8. Other than that, there are many developers like Swipe waiting to make its keyboard available for iOS.
(5) Family Sharing
Now if you are annoyed to see your credit cards being used by your children on any paid apps then iOS 8 will help you with that. There is a feature named Family Sharing which can join six members so that everyone can see the content downloaded by anyone and there will be a warning for denying or granting the purchase for apps to the parents.
(6) Interactive Notifications
You were playing a game a text beep out, how can you reply without closing the game and opening the messaging app? In iOS 8, drag the notification bar down and reply there, push it back again and done; you can keep playing what you were playing.
(7) Widgets
Hey, don’t think that these will be like widgets on android. You are not going to get anything on home screen. But the widget thing has arrived to iOS 8 at the notification zone.
(8) New Messaging features
The SMS app which comes in iOS has a lot more to offer to the customers. You can send audio or video messages. By audio, what I mean is voice chat; effortlessly fast and reliable.
