1. notification center

Some people think that the pop-up prompts on the iPhone are a major failure of Apple's iOS system. Now, Apple has added a service named "notification center" to iOS 5, this service is similar to the Android system. You can learn about it, including text messages, incoming calls, emails, Calendar reminders, and other information. When your finger slides down from the top of the screen, you enter the notification center. When there is a new message, a small window of different colors appears at the top of the screen, prompting you to process the new message. Click it to view all the messages.

2. iMessage

BBM is an instant messaging application for BlackBerry smartphones. Now Apple wants to add similar iMessage programs to its main products. Apple users can use iMessage to send messages to other Apple users. When iMessage is received, a blue Prompt window appears on the top, by default, the system sends a confirmation message to the recipient after reading the message. If you do not want the recipient to know whether the message has been read, you can cancel the read receipt option. In addition, you can use iMessage to know whether the other party is inputting the message. The functions of sending pictures and sending messages on iOS devices are even more difficult.

3. newsstand

The emergence of the iPad has made electronic newspapers and magazines popular. In addition, Apple itself provides the magazine subscription service, so the application named newsstand came into being. After the official release of iOS 5 this autumn, app store will add a newspaper subscription section, and the subscribed newspapers and magazines will appear in the newsroom for reading.

4. New reminder app

After you install the Reminder application, you will see two pages: task and completed ). Click the + button next to the task to set the reminder content. Then you can select the options such as the deadline and priority. When the specified date is reached, a tray-like message will prompt you to complete the task. After the task is completed, the task in the taskbar will automatically go to the completed column.

5. New camera app

Apple upgraded its own camera program. Users can quickly enter the Camera mode when the screen is locked, and then use the volume increase button to take a quick shot. In terms of image editing, Apple has added basic rotation, redeye removal, stroke, and cropping functions. However, these functions are only available in the image editing program.

6. Safari Reader

Safari reader can block all messy formats and advertisements on the webpage, leaving only the original text and images to you. The materials read after reading will go to the reading list, these materials are stored in the reading list so that users can browse them offline in the future. Of course, you can also use iCloud to synchronize these materials on devices. The latest version of IOS 5 also has a multi-tab bar, and the websites you have read will be displayed under the address.

7. Separated keyboard

I believe many people think that the virtual keyboard of the iPad is not easy to use. The dual-hand typing and the keyboard are small during the screen, so the accuracy is not very high. However, after installing the new iOS version, you only need to put both hands on the iPad keyboard, and then drag in the opposite direction to split the keyboard into two. In this way, you have enough space for your hands.
