5 iOS 7 most successful and unsuccessful innovation

Finally we got the coveted iOS 7 on your device and can now fully appreciate all of its new features. However, not all of them can be called successful - on the other hand, useful innovations in "seven" is also missing. But what exactly can be called successful and which are not? We have compiled a selection of the 5 most successful and unsuccessful innovation iOS 7 and suggest you evaluate it and share your views in the comments.

successful innovations

Control Center

The emergence of this function suggested itself for a long time. 6 years users of the iPhone and iPad have to do a lot of unnecessary movements easy to turn on or off Wi-Fi or Bluetooth.

Control Center is accessible from any iOS app - just svaypnut up from the bottom edge of the screen. In addition switch Wi-Fi and Bluetooth, you can control the brightness using the Control Center, the music tune AirDrop and the AirPlay, and enable / disable airplane mode, the mode "Do not disturb" and include a portrait orientation lock screen.

AirDrop

Joke of five years ago, "but better than your iPhone Nokia - he even data on air can not pass" is no longer relevant. In iOS 7 AirDrop Apple implement support for a protocol that allows you to share photos, links and other data between iOS-devices. AirDrop to work also activated Wi-Fi and Bluetooth, so do not forget to turn off these options in a timely manner, so as not to put the battery.

Updated interface photoappendices

Apple focuses on photography - in each update their phones kupertinovtsy necessarily bring new opportunities for the cameras. Now the time has come and software. photoappendices interfaces in iOS 7 have changed a lot. In place of a simple grouping images into albums came "collection" and "Moments", and an application for photography now allows you to easily switch between shooting modes, as well as use the built filters. Upgrading of these programs is definitely worth recorded in the standings kupertinovtsy.

Tabs, and omnibox Safari

Unlike many other standard applications, Safari in iOS 7 was not only a completely new design, but also a lot of new features. First, the address and search bar, finally united in a single Omnibox - to be sure, because of this, surfing the net is faster. Second, completely changed the design of its interface tabs - now they are not supplied in horizontal mode as before, but vertically. To close a tab, simply svaypnut aside, and the tabs themselves can be any number.

Multitasking and background updating applications

Frankly, after the iOS 7 multitasking in iOS 6 is extremely negative emotions. Well, in the past gone awkward panel at the bottom with microscopic icons "bricks" - it was hardly a convenient multi-tasking. Now everything is different - the application submitted in the form of snapshots, to close them require a simple swipe up. Perhaps this is one of the most successful implementations in mobile multitasking OSes.

Besides, the multi-tasking has become better - now they can update their data in the background, and you go in, say, Twitter client, you do not be sure to update the message tape - if the program supports background updating of data, you'll see new messages immediately, as soon as the open program. Damn convenient.

Some horrible icons

Opponents and supporters of the new iOS will be enough, but that's the unanimous everything, so it is in the program icon. Some of them look really bad and look like raw drafts, but not completed icon. This is especially strange to see from Apple, which has always been famous for its meticulous to detail and design. It is hoped that the Apple themselves all know and soon will update the icons of applications such as Safari and settings.

Animation when opening applications

iOS could never be called by the operating system with visual excesses. And it seems like in iOS 7 move toward simplification continued. Against this backdrop, even more strange looks new animation when you open and switch between applications, as well as animation desktop after you unlock the screen. It is not clear why it was necessary to consciously "to slow down" operation of the phone, using a similar animation - instead quick access to the necessary programs, you see all these beautiful, but in practical terms, is absolutely useless animation.

Folders can hold only 9 applications

One of the potentially coolest iOS 7 chips has become an inconvenience - yes, now a folder can contain an infinite number of applications, but it is not clear why the "Desktop" folder holds only 9 programs - downstairs (especially on the iPhone 5 / C / S) there is enough space to add three more applications, and increased distance between icons eppov excluded the possibility to place four, instead of three icons in row.

parallax effect

Another innovation, not bearing in itself no practical benefit - this is the effect of parallax on desktops and lock-screen. It looks cool, but it does not improve the experience of using iOS, and only reduces the already low battery life. Almost immediately start to look for where the settings you can disable this "thingies". Well, that is such an opportunity.

Runtimes

This is not a new feature in the full sense of the word, but the fact that the battery life has changed compared to iOS 6 - it is a fact. Moreover, it has not changed for the better, particularly unlucky iPhone 5, which, according to some tests, the battery began to hold a third less. I understand that Apple wants us to massively switched to 5s / 5c, but not the same barbaric methods? :-). Speaking seriously, then it's probably a total imperfection of the system, which is not optimal consumes battery power. We hope that this will correct soon.

***

That is so turned most notable pros and cons of the new iOS 7. This is not a complete list of all successful and unsuccessful innovation, but I think that they are the most visible to us - the users. Of course, the effect of useful innovations completely covers the "badness" of failed innovation, and there is every reason to believe that most of the stocks will correct in the coming updates.

And what innovations like and do not like you, and why? What is your personal top most successful and unsuccessful new features in iOS 7? What should be done Apple, to make "seven" to me? I will be glad to hear your opinions in the comments.
