5 Most Important Changes in iOS 8 - We Want to See!

Apple recently unveiled iOS 7 and it was readily updated on most of the  iOS devices due to many of its new features, bug fixes and other innovative things like fingerprint security. However, still there are some drawbacks pertaining to which Apple is working on to bring another OS update.

Lots of rumours and speculations are going around the web regarding the launch of the operating system iOS 8 along with the much coveted iPhone 6.

Here are the couple of the things which our sources have gathered from the web related to what the users want in the next iOS.

Stronger Inter-App Communications

Inter-app connectivity is too poor in Apple’s operating system. It’s quite not feasible to jump from one app to another as while performing a task on one app, when another function is running behind, you are not automatically switched to the latter. This strongly hampers the smooth functioning.

The things get worse, when you are editing documents across several apps as workflow becomes a nightmare with document copies in various states strewn throughout individual app sandboxes.

Better Document Management

Pertaining to the previous point, Apple should also consider introducing some sort of centralised access to documents in its new iOS. At present, Dropbox works as a surrogate file system due to iCloud, which is a bunch of silos. It’s irrational that you can’t attach files within Mail in an OS that goes long up to version 7. Further, iCloud lacks the collaboration activities within documents workflow, which is quite disappointing.

Avoid iOS Direct Download on Devices

Recently, a glitch came forward that Apple provides direct download of its new update automatically on every iOS device.  A case has also been filed regarding this unwanted download by an American. Therefore, in the next version before the OS downloads automatically, the app should ask permission from the user, whether the new update is needed or not.

Non-User Account

A brand name in smartphones, Apple always wants that everyone should own their own device. That’s great but actually not everybody’s pocket is big to afford those big branded devices.

It seems little obscure but providing a non-user guest account without affecting your settings and data will be of great help.

Group FaceTime Calls

Apple mobile platform was the first to bring life to FaceTime. Although one-to-one model is great, it’s time to move on to the next step with the new iOS. People want to attend several people at a time rather than having a crowd around their iPhone. Thus, a group FaceTime calls will be a great help to users to call their friends at a time and have a group discussion.
