Since Apple revealed iOS 7 At its conference Last Monday, it became the main concern of the technical community, and everyone talks about it with great interest, whether Apple enthusiasts or even supporters of other systems, and this demonstrates the strength of Apple that made its competitors their dialogue is an attempt to prove its weakness, and in the midst of discussions between Apple's supporters and opponents, everyone forgot about the average user who He has a lot of questions about the upcoming system, so we decided to single out this article to answer the questions that are on the minds of Apple fans.
What's new in Maps in iOS 7?
As for cities and updating them, this matter does not require updating the iOS system because it occurs on Apple's servers and it continues periodically, as for maps, I got the following:
- Navigation while walking: Now you get a "turn-by-turn" voice guidance if you travel on foot. In iOS 6, it gives you guidance written on the screen without a phoneme.
- Night mode: It now provides night and day guidance and navigation according to the time you are in, and this makes it easier for you to read and view directions easily.
- synchronization: It has been added to sync bookmarks with iCloud, which protects you from losing your important places if you use another device or change the copy.
What is new in the Arabic language and its support for voice dictation in iOS 7?
Unfortunately in the current version, "Beta 1", the Arabic language is not supported in phonetic dictation. Only Italian, Korean and Dutch languages have been added for phonetic dictation, but Apple may do so later.
As for the Arabic language in general, Apple has updated Arabic, added new fonts, changed the type and size of the font used, and this means that Arabic has begun to become one of Apple's interests to develop it further, and we hope to continue doing so until we see phonetic dictation and then Siri in Arabic.
When will iOS 7 be released? Is its release linked to the next iPhone?
Yes, the issuance of the system is linked to the detection of the next iPhone, as Apple holds a conference to reveal the iPhone and also to talk about the system in its final form, and at the end of the conference announces the date of downloading the system - a week after the conference and two days before the iPhone is available for sale.
As for when will the next iPhone and iOS 7 appear, it is expected that in the second half of September - last year, the system was released on September 19 and iPhone September 21 -.
What devices will the next system support?
The system will support the following devices:
- IPhone: 4 / 4S / 5
- IPad: 2/3/4 and mini
- IPod: The fifth generation only with its 32 GB version or the other low-cost.
Are the 10 advantages mentioned in the Your previous article Are they only the advantages of the new system?
No, of course, there are dozens of other advantages, but Apple did not mention them due to the short time of the conference, as Apple was interested in presenting the main advantages, but there are dozens of small advantages that make the use better, and we will devote independent articles to them soon, God willing.
Will all devices get all the benefits?
No, not all devices will get all the benefits, and this matter has a technical and marketing side of course to push Apple the user to get the latest device, and you can see the following picture to identify the devices that will support it:
Can we see new features in iOS 7 that have not appeared yet?
Yes, this can happen. So far, the current version is the first beta "beta 1", and Apple usually releases 4 beta versions, then a semi-final version called GM, and in the end it releases the final version for the average user, and in these versions Apple can add new features.
I heard from my friends that iOS 7 drains too much battery so is this real?
The current version is experimental and intended for developers, and it is never recommended for the average user to try and use it, the demo version of course contains many problems and malfunctions and this is the goal of its issuance for developers to try it and teach Apple what the problems are and fix them before the final version is released to everyone after three months.
I read about ways to download iOS 7 to my device, would you recommend that to me especially that I currently have a jailbreak, will I be able to go back to 6.1.2?
As we mentioned in the response to the previous question, we never recommend the use of iOS 7 beta to non-professionals. In the case of jailbreakers, it is not recommended to upgrade completely because you will lose the jailbreak and you will only be able to return to 6.1.3, and there is no jailbreak for it. In other words, if you try the system, you will lose the jailbreak and wait for a period of more than 6 months for another release - if issued -.
Why are you fanatic about Apple and did not remember that it carried features from Android, BlackBerry and Android?
We'll soon devote a whole article to this "imitation" issue, but let's think before we publish it. Apple unveiled dozens of features in iOS 7, including features not found in any other operating system to date, such as permanently locking your phone after theft, as well as significant improvements in multitasking for all applications. Yet, you find everyone abandoning these dozens of features and focusing only on a few features, such as the Control Center, the lock screen, and swiping back. You find everyone focusing only on similar controversial issues, neglecting the rest of the great features, all to show that the system is bad. "Leave it and come to our system 😀." Does this make sense?
You mentioned that among the advantages of the new system.Turn off the phoneAfter the theft, but the thief can easily restore and reuse the device, so where is the advantage?
Find the phone service and the advantages that fall on it are not a simple matter. Otherwise, competing companies such as Google would have provided it in its system, Apple revealed this service like this today, but in 2010 and so far it did not appear in Android and this indicates that it is a very big feature that is not easy to transfer with a traffic directory Years.
So when Apple develops it and makes the phone locked, be sure that it has become locked. If a thief tries to lock the phone, he will be asked for your account password. If he connects it to iTunes to restore it, he will be asked for your account password. If he goes to settings to turn off the “Find My Phone” service, he will be asked for your password. Even if he wants to reset the device and erase its contents, he will also be asked for the password. No matter what the thief does, he will not be able to use the device. Even if he manages to download a new operating system in an “anonymous” way, Apple devices require an internet connection to be activated when downloading a new operating system. When the thief does this and your device connects to Apple servers, the servers will respond that the device is locked, and ask him for your account password to work 😀. In short, “Thieves, no need to steal Apple devices anymore".
If you have any question regarding iOS 7, let us know and we will answer it in our next articles, God willing
