What iOS 5 Means for Me
There’s a myriad of Youtube videos discussing the recent Apple announcement. I personally think adding one more would be too much. Instead I will discuss my quick thoughts in this post.
My iPhone is currently jailbroken, and I normally do no update until a jailbreak has been released for months. I only did so to add modifications that I thought were missing from iOS. Mainly being MobileNotifier. But when iOS 5 is released, I will update immediately.
My favorite new features:
Notifications: No more popups! Huzzah. The lockscreen interface looks gorgeous with the weather and stock options, and appears to have the same functionality as MobileNotifier.
iMessages: I’ve been using WhatsApp, but can see myself making a easy transition since the functionality is built into the Message app.
Wireless Sync: No more white cables for syncing. It was always a nuisance for me to plug it into iTunes whenever I had new media.
Camera hardware button: Taking photos will be easier once the volume up button will be made into the shutter button. Also like how the camera button appears on the lockscreen.
