iOS 9 will be released later this month. It’s the newest version of Apple’s operating system meant for iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch. This new iOS has some awesome features that make running an iOS device even smoother than before (if you can even imagine that!). Here we review even more of the best new features you need to know when using iOS 9.
Multitasking
This has always been easy to do on a Mac but impossible on an iPad or iPhone. Apple’s new Picture in Picture mode will move the video into the bottom corner of the screen while you continue on with your business in another app. Just press the Home button to let iOS 9 know to shrink the video screen down to a corner of your display.
Improved Battery
This mode can help reduce the battery consumption by automatically turning off all background apps. With new ambient light and proximity sensors, your iPhone will know if it is face down on the table and can prevent the screen from turning on, even if you receive a notification. These new upgrades are guaranteed to save you some battery life, which lets you use your iOS device for even longer.
Siri Upgrades
You will also get intelligent suggestions from Siri for what apps you might want to use depending on your most commonly used apps. Note, this will be done for you without you even asking. Another awesome upgrade that Siri comes with is knowing more about incoming calls from people who aren’t saved in your phone. Siri will be able to find if the number is saved in your email and inform you if you know that person.
Keyboard Updates
Also with the new iOS 9, the keyboard has the ability to move around a document with a virtual cursor. Simply tap and hold anywhere on the screen with two fingers and the keys will gray out. From now on, moving the two fingers will move the cursor and automatically select any text between the original point and the new place you moved your cursor to.
Android to iOS
The new iOS 9 even has something for Android users. If you ever thought about switching to iPhone, now is the time.
