1- Update the notification system completely
There are several problems with the current notification system, the most important of which is that it is somewhat annoying, especially when you are playing a game or doing something important and the notification interrupts you and then you cannot return to it again.

The notification system has been completely updated and its name is now Notification Center. Now the notifications appear at the top without interrupting you, and you can pull the notifications list from the top and go to it at any time and in any program.

Better than that, the notifications are also located on the lock screen, and you can access it immediately by sliding the notification icon.


2- Newsstand program
Recently, a magazine and newspaper subscriptions system has been added, and with the new update of iOS 5, this has been made easier by compiling all newspapers and magazines in one program called (Newsstand)

And when there is a Wi-Fi connection, the program will automatically download the new copies of the magazines and newspapers that you have subscribed to, so that they become available to you at any time, even without an Internet connection.


3- Twitter support
Twitter was fully supported in the system, and now it is very easy to link your Twitter account with the iOS 5 system, to be linked with the system applications or any other application.

Now, with the utmost simplicity, you can share your photos on Twitter from within the photo program with the touch of a button.

You can also send an article from the Safari browser or your place on the map and share it on Twitter immediately.


4- Update Safari Browser
Safari is one of the best browsers on mobile systems, and nearly two out of every three use Safari, so Safari shares 64% of mobile browsers.

In iOS 5, the Safari browser has been made better and a feature has been added to the Reader button. By clicking on this button, the page will be initialized and focus only on the content of the article you are reading. You can also add articles to a list, read later, or read the beginning of an article on one device and then complete the rest of the article on another device.

Also, the tabs or tabs feature has been added, which allows opening more than one page and navigating between them easily.


5- Reminders
A new program has been added with the iOS 5 system, which is the reminder program for appointments and important things called (Reminders), and it coincides with the existing calendar program in the iOS system.

One of the most important features of the program is that you can link it to your place and when you leave or enter this place it reminds you of something specific, for example you tell the program that when you leave work, it reminds me to buy bread and the program automatically knows that you left the workplace and then reminds you of the thing that you want to remember.


6- Camera software
One of the most important features required of iOS users is the quick access to photography and the camera software, now you can press the camera button on the lock screen.

You can also take pictures via the volume up button, and you can zoom in on the image by bringing your two fingers closer to the image.

Image enhancement feature has been added and also modified by cropping, to get a better result quickly.


7- Mail program
Add the ability to format the text, pull the sender's address to it, and also mark the important mail to be distinguished, and you can search the entire contents of the messages.

Another feature is the separate keyboard to facilitate typing (this feature is for iPad only)


8- An advantage without a computer
Scott says you will be able to cut the connection of the computer (but how do we charge the device? :)) In any case, this new feature is great for everyone because now you do not have to have a computer to use iOS devices and the device is no longer activated when buying depends on a computer. Just open the device box and you will find a welcome message, and the activation will take place from the device itself and everything on the device itself.

Even downloading the operating system updates, now the update will be downloaded via Wi-Fi and you will not have to download a 750 MB file, but only the files that occurred in the system, so that the upgrade is easier for everyone.

Also, one of the great features is that you will be able to synchronize your device with the computer without connecting it with a wire, only via Wi-Fi while it is being charged.


9- Update the Games Center
The Game Center has only been 9 months old and now has 50 million subscribers. Compared to Xbox Live, which was 8 years ago and has only 30 million subscribers.

The Games Center has been updated to be more fun and social, now you can add your picture and find out the points of your friends and friends of your friends. The Games Center also recommends friends for you and recommends games for you to be able to buy them immediately from the Games Center.


10- iMessages program
I think we have the best messaging program on mobile devices, and now the messaging program has become better. All owners of iOS devices can send messages to each other and also send pictures, videos, caller numbers or a place on the map, and it is also possible to create group messages. (We can say goodbye to BlackBerry)

Also, with the new messaging system, you can know when the other person received the message, and you can know whether or not he writes a message for you at the same time, and all messages will be encrypted. (God is hiding from Arab governments)


After reviewing these features, there is a lot that has not been mentioned, but all of this will be available to the general public in the fall, and today there will be a trial version for developers.

The new update will work on all iPhone 3GS, iPhone 4, iPad 1, iPad 2, iPod touch G3 and G4 devices.
