iOS---7---iPhone---iPad-Mini

The system

The iOS 7 mobile phone operating system supports the iPhone and the iPad mini electronic devices. These devices are manufactured by the reputed multinational electronic manufacturing company Apple Inc. These are called the smart phones as they are powered by the Android mobile phone operating system. It is immensely popular all over the globe. Certain tricks to speed up the iOS 7 on iPhone and iPad mini are as follows. These are all very simple methods.

Stop the background app

The background app should always be refreshed in order to start a totally new application on the iPhone. The system may get slower if all the apps which are not in use run simultaneously with the current app. Thus, refreshing the apps page newly speeds up the whole system to a very large extent.

Turning off the auto updates

The auto updates should always be turned off in order to speed up each and every uses and applications on the iPhone. It saves a lot of memory space within the processor of the mobile phone and thus the mobile phone operation becomes faster and easier with the help of this activity. A few of the most essential auto updates should be kept while others may be turned off in order to speed up the iPhone operation speed.

Clearing out the unused apps

The apps which are no longer in use should always be cleared up from the memory of the Apple mobile phone or the iPhone. As a lot of memory space and address will be freed by this way, the entire process will be speeded up to a considerable extent. It also lowers the burden of extra junk and unwanted apps on the entire iPhone mobile system.

Enhancing the phone memory

The memory of the iPhone can be enhanced by adding more memory chips to the device. Thus, the speed of the iPhone will always automatically increase in this way.

iOS7: What’s hot? What’s not?

ios-6-vs-ios-7

iOS 7 is now available to download, Apple claims there are over 200 new features in its new iOS7. iOS 7 introduces new features like Control Centre, AirDrop for iOS and smarter multitasking. It makes the things you do every day even easier, faster and more enjoyable. And while many of the apps look different, the way you do things feels perfectly familiar. So from day one, you know how to use iOS 7.

We at PrePayMania did a thorough research on the OS and we bring to you “What’s hot and what’s not” about iOS7.

What’s hot?

Multitasking has improved- Of course you have heard it. Double tapping on the home button no longer gives you the tray with the applications opened; now when you double tap on the home button it gives a full screen, thumb nail view of all the recent apps.

Control Center is one of the biggest feature additions to iOS7. It’s a drop down feature that gives the access to almost all other features of your device. Users can now enable Airplay mode, WI-FI, Bluetooth, Do Not Disturb, and the screen orientation lock from Control Center by swiping up from the bottom of the screen.

Siri can now pull information from Wikipedia and display the recent tweets from a specific account with simplified commands. Performance has been improved in some areas, with Siri detecting inquiries faster. Siri has a new male and female voice as well.

AirDrop allows users to directly connect with other devices and transfer files wirelessly. A feature which was missing from iOS since ages.

Facetime is available for voice-only also. It would not only be easy to connect but would also eat up less data.

Camera was never so easier to use. With just one touch you can toggle between camera, video and panorama features.

Photos app No need to mess up your photos now. Photos will be stored according to the time and place they were clicked. They will be stored in albums and you can tap on years and you will be able to see photos of that year.

What’s not?

Sharing is not caring for Apple. It’s OK when it comes to share photos on social networking sites. Apple is very less friendlier when you want to share data with other devices.

Battery life We’ve heard that iOS7 is hitting hard on the battery life for most of its devices. We will only have to wait for it for the news to get confirmed.

Verdict

Even though there is a lot of scope for improvement, we won’t deny the fact that this OS is the biggest overhaul ever by Apple.

Apple has launched its new iPhone 5s the latest iPhone in the series. At the same time Samsung has launched its Galaxy note 3 in around the same price zone. Both devices are extremely powerful and best in their class, but there are few important reasons why iPhone 5s beats Note 3.

iPhone-5S-Galaxy-Note-3

The iPhone 5s retains the same design as iPhone 5 at the same time Samsung note 3 is slimmer than its previous version. The iPhone 5s weighs 112 grams that is much less than note 3 weighing 168 grams, making the device lighter in use. The screen size of note 3 is 5.7-inch whereas of the iPhone 5s is 4 inch same as iPhone 5 making it very easy to operate with one hand. Galaxy Note 3 is also very difficult to keep in pockets because of its massive size whereas the slim and trim iPhone 5s is easy to handle. The iPhone 5s has three color variants that is one more than its previous version.

Every apple phone comes with a remarkable new technology. Apple kept its promise by providing fingertip recognition home button an, entirely new technology absent in any smartphone till date. Samsung Note 3 was rumored of having this technology but ultimately company was unable to put it in.  Also the iPhone 5s has an 8 megapixel iSight camera capable of capturing photos even in low light with its dual-tone flashlight. The camera lens of note 3 is not as good as that iPhone 5s’s.

Talking about one of the main features- the operating system of the phone of the Note 3 will feature the same OS as Android 4.1 Jellybean as its previous version note 2. The new iPhone 5s features the all new IOS 7 with numerous new features that the IOS 6.
