According to a number of players testing feedback, the update provided by the Apple official Sudoku Input method is limited to the national line version of the IPhone firmware upgrade, the United States and Hong Kong version of the user after the upgrade does not include the relevant options, the national line of the iphone users are suddenly become very strong? After upgrading to IOS7 beta4, National line iphone users can follow the "settings-general-keyboard-keyboard-Simplified Chinese-10 keys," The operation of the new input method, as for other versions of the iphone users do not worry, believe that the great God has a way to transplant, or after the next version of the update, There is no doubt that can be supported.

Looking forward to the moon finally has the original IOS Sudoku Input method, excitement, we are also eager to know its true performance in the end, as shown in the picture, IOS "Ten keys" keyboard input is actually 5*4 key layout, suitable for pinyin/English/radical/stroke and other input, the most commonly used nine Sudoku placed in the middle, But the first on the left is the most commonly used punctuation, the remaining eight are English characters, each provided 3-4 characters optional, the user can either consecutive key selection can also be long press and then move Sudoku for character selection.

Comparison of the reviewers previously on the jailbreak iPhone using the QQ input method and Baidu input method, IOS this new nine Sudoku Input method provides a relatively small number of functions, can be customized to the basic no, the font of the weaknesses have not been improved, but from the overall key layout and ease of access can give a favorable comment, As for the size of the Sudoku, though not too large (compared with the Third-party input method), but compared to the previously maddening original QWERTY keyboard has improved greatly, and the single hand input is not a problem, Chinese input efficiency than the previous escape of the iphone has been significantly improved, which is enough to cheer users.

In addition, the IOS7 BETA4 test version in the lock screen interface has subtle changes, added a right sliding arrow, in the prompt text "sliding to unlock" on the left, the purpose is to unlock the hint more clearly. It is reported that the update also in the Notification Center and Control center of the project bar, browser, dial-up interface and other UI details have some adjustments.

After the evaluation of the IPhone 5 upgrade iOS7 beta4, the overall sense of fluency compared to one months ago the version has been a lot of improvement, the previous use of assistive touch delay problem is also resolved, but due to limited testing time, the change of the performance is not conclusive, Further observation is also required as to whether there will be a serious problem of touch failure in the case of low battery power (under 20%).

And let a lot of users of micro-credit headache friends can not send a map (choose Photo Album photos) problem, upgrade to IOS7 BETA4 version is still unresolved, beauty camera also still can not use the front lens shooting, plant war zombie continue to flash back can not play, from which to see the relevant application of the IOS7 The compatibility also needs the developer to do more effort, relying on Apple's own optimization of iOS7 to achieve the compatibility of published applications seems unrealistic, and from the developer's point of view, because of the current iOS7 beta, there are more uncertainties, the general will not rush to launch a special adaptation of the application version, so you have to be patient and so on.
