Apple has again brought many innovative applications and trends to the mobile device world.
iOS5 is expected to be launched on October 4th. Phones are expected in the stores shortly after. So far there have not been accurate information about what features and applications the new iOS will support.
Here is a brief of what 9to5mac has published today which however has not officially been confirmed by Apple.
The new iOS has a killer application named “Assistant”.
It is like a real assistant but inside the phone! Assistant is a voice control system that is improved dramatically compare to Voice Control application in iPhone 3GS.
It also supports Speech-to-Text feature. That means the mobile user doesn’t need to type his/her message to send a text. The user can speak to the Phone and it will send the message as a text to the receiver. This is a brilliant application as many car drivers do text while driving (even though it is illegal). With this feature, sending a text will be less time consuming and distractive.
Assistant can also book meetings like a real assistant and reminds about things to be done.
iOS5 has another interesting application that is called “Find my Friends”, which can find locations of contacts. Also it has Wolfram Alpha which is a knowledge engine that can answer to many questions such as health related questions, geography, weather, GDP, unit conversions, financial
computations and many others.
iOS 5 can camp on GSM and CDMA networks as well.
