With the new introduction to the new iOS family with iOS 6 coming soon, you'd think apple would make a bigger change to their operating system. Let's face it the look of iOS hasn't changed in the last 5 years Other than notification centre and multi-tasking it's stayed pretty much the same. Android users have the luxury of changing the look and feeling without jailbreaking/rooting. They've got most of the options to customize it has already been built in to the operating system and that's why most of the people that i know have moved over to android since they've found the iPhone lacking basic smartphone features.
What's special with iOS 6 except it's the new interation to the iOS 6. What does it actually do that's practical. Ok maps with 3D built in, sure that's really nice but i'm only ever going to use it to show off the capabilits of the device or what apple have done to rival with google's own mapping system. I thought this wasn't surprising at all. Android have add this function since froyo, maybe even before then but the earliest i've seen it is in froyo. If someone is phoning you and you're not able to pick up the phone, well if you're using a Pre iOS 6 device, you've got to type the message out like 'I'm in a meeting' and now with iOS 6 you swipe up and you get a list of pre-set messages that you can easily click and it will send away to the person that's ringing you.
speaking of iOS 6, you've got a new intergrated called Passbook and that lets you display your vouchers and coupons on the screen so you can easily place your iPhone infront of a scanner and the scanner will do it's thing and you can get money off items. Here comes what i've suggested in the past in NFC being built into the iPhone 5. NFC stands for Near field communication, A lot of Android powered smartphones have it built it and it's basically a chip that lives inside your phone that acts like debit card so you can easily buy your stuff through your phone and without the need to carry your card. NFC is low powered and takes up less battery comsumption than Bluetooth.
I honestly think that iOS is getting boring now, It's nice to speculate on what the next iPhone might look like and what it will feature. Apple are great making hardware but when it comes to software, i think they are lacking creativty and they are stealing many ideas from android. iOS notification centre looks for prettier than android but it's a stolen idea and i think apple will need to come up with something soon to get the credit back that they used to own. It's not like they've got no money. Apple is the Most valuable company is the history of companies ever...EVER!! so it's safe to say they've got a lot of money at their disposable and they could invest it into new workers bringing in some new fresh ideas that aren't copied.
