Apple iOS 10 features

Apple just held their WWDC i.e. Apple Worldwide Developers Conference in this week where they released new version of operating system for Apple mobile devices such as iPhone, iPad etc. which will be known as iOS 10.

This was indeed a greater surprise for audience as this conference only focused on software. No new hardware was released during this event. But Apple did managed to surprise audience with awesome set of new feature which will be part of iOS10.

Here are some awesome features of Apple iOS 10

1. Send Message in your own handwriting 

You guessed it right ! Just like you write down on a paper with pen/pencil you need to write your message on a screen with your fingers. The receiver will receive the exact same handwritten message. Your friends will see it animate, just as ink flows on paper.

2. Change keywords with emoji

You can also change you message’s keywords with emoji. For e.g. if you want a send message “basketball finishes at 5”, double tapping will replace your message’s keyword with respective emoji for e.g. basketball will be replace with basketball emoji.

3. Raise to Awake

You need to only pickup your phone in order to wake up the phone and read new notifications.This feature is already available in Motorola android phones since 2-3 years.

4. Rich Notification

Apple has really used 3D touch very smartly to create this feature. Just like an android phone you will be able to see content of the message/notification on your lock screen. By using 3D touch you’ll be able to reply to particular thread or you can just read message or watch video, listen to the audio without actually unlocking your your phone.

5. Updated Siri

Siri is now open to all the apps from app store which means that you can ask Siri to book a ride with Lyft or you can use it with maps or can use it to send money to someone etc.

6. Updated Maps

So you have decided to go to a particular place and you have started your journey. Now the maps will give you suggestions like nearest places to eat or place to refuel your vehicle. Maps can also tell you how much extra time it will take to arrive to your destination. This is very helpful for those who takes a road trip without proper planning it and then end up using various other apps to find places to eat or hotels to stay. Apple has done a very good job with integrating those apps with maps. So you don’t need to download external apps for these very purpose,Apple maps will tell you everything,ultimately it will save memory.

7. Search photos by people or things in them

The photos taken will be sorted by the people appearing in them. For e.g. your phone will be recognize and arrange all the photos of person X by face recognition. It can also arrange your photo by places like beach etc. Apple is first company to implement this. Experts are saying Apple can face lot of trouble because of this feature.
