The World’s most advances mobile operating system.
With its easy-to-use interface, amazing features, and rock-solid stability, iOS Apple’s mobile operating system is the foundation of iPhone. And even as other phones try to catch up, the technologies and features built into iOS 4 keep it years ahead of the competition.
Elegant and intuitive interface.
The first time you pick up an iPhone, you know how to use it. That’s because the revolutionary Multi-Touch interface in iOS was designed for the most natural pointing device ever: your finger. So whether you’re using one of the built-in apps or one of the over 200,000 apps and games available from the App Store, you control everything with a tap, drag, swipe, pinch, flick, or twist of your fingers. Even tasks that might seem complicated such as starting a FaceTime call or editing a video with iMovie are simple, easy, and fun.
The world’s largest app platform.
With over 200,000 apps in practically every category, iOS 4 is the platform for the world’s largest collection of mobile apps. Apple gives third-party developers a rich set of tools and APIs, and they’ve been creating apps and games that redefine what a mobile device can do. Where to find these apps? Just browse the App Store from your iPhone and download them with a tap.
Performance and stability that lead the industry.
iOS 4 is a desktop-class OS that’s been reinvented for mobile devices. Because it’s based on the world’s most advanced computer operating system Mac OS X performance in iOS 4 is fast and stability is rock-solid. iOS 4 manages power efficiently and delivers the best possible battery life. And multitasking using multiple apps at the same time in iOS 4 doesn’t slow down the performance of the foreground app or drain the battery unnecessarily.
Hardware and software made for each other.
Because Apple makes both the iPhone hardware and the operating system, everything works together seamlessly and intelligently. This integration enables apps to take full advantage of iPhone hardware features such as the Retina display, the Multi-Touch interface, the accelerometer, the three-axis gyro, GPS, accelerated graphics, and more. FaceTime is a perfect example. It uses both iPhone 4 cameras, the display, one of the two microphones, and your Wi-Fi connection. If you’re on a voice call with someone and want to start a video call, FaceTime switches mics, turns on the front camera, and verifies your Wi-Fi connection quickly and invisibly.
Safe and secure by design.
iOS 4 is highly secure from the moment you turn on your iPhone. All apps run in a safe environment, so a website or app can’t access data from other apps. iOS 4 supports encrypted network communication to protect your sensitive information. Optional parental controls let you manage iTunes purchases, Internet browsing, and access to explicit material. To guard your privacy, apps requesting location information must get your permission first. You can set a passcode lock to prevent unauthorized access to your phone and configure iPhone to delete all your data after too many unsuccessful passcode attempts. And in the event your iPhone is lost or stolen, a MobileMe membership allows you to find your iPhone on a map and remotely delete all data. If you get it back, you can restore everything from your last backup.
Ready for business.
Businesses around the world are choosing iPhone for itsenterprise-ready features and powerful security. iOS 4 works with Microsoft Exchange and standards-based servers to deliver over-the-air push email, calendar, and contacts. iOS 4 protects your data by encrypting information in three separate areas: in transmission, at rest on the device, and when backed up to iTunes. You can securely access private corporate networks through industry-standard VPN protocols. And companies can easily deploy iPhone across an enterprise using configuration profiles.
Accessible by everyone.
iOS 4 comes standard with a wide range of accessibility featuresthat help people with disabilities experience everything iPhone has to offer. For example, the built-in VoiceOver screen-reading technology allows those who are blind or have low vision to hear a description of the item they’re touching on the screen. iOS 4 also offers out-of-the-box support for over 30 wireless braille displays and many other accessibility features, such as dynamic screen magnification, playback of closed-captioned video, white on black text, and more.
Works the world over.
iPhone and iOS 4 are made to be used around the world. The user interface is localized into over 30 languages, and you can easily switch between them. Because the keyboard is software-based, you can select from over 40 different layouts with support for language-specific features including diacritic marks on characters, handwritten input for Chinese, and contextual character options for Japanese. In addition, the built-in dictionaries support 40 language and dialects, VoiceOver reads screens in 33 languages, and Voice Control understands 24 languages.
Free iOS Updates
Your iPhone gets better with every iOS update, which is free for all iPhone owners. Right now, iOS 4 is available for iPhone 4, iPhone 3G, and iPhone 3GS. Just connect your iPhone to your Mac or PC, open iTunes, and follow the instructions to download the update.
Accessibility comes standard on iPod touch. It’s built right into the operating system. And innovative features on iPod touch take accessibility a step further.
Screen reading with VoiceOver.
In addition to Voice Control, iPod touch features VoiceOver, the world’s first gesture-based screen reader. Instead of memorising keyboard commands or pressing tiny arrow keys, you simply touch the screen to hear a description of the item under your finger, then double-tap, drag or flick to control iPod touch. VoiceOver speaks 25 languages and works with all the applications built into iPod touch. And now, common VoiceOver keyboard commands are recognised by an external keyboard.
VoiceOver also features a virtual control called the rotor. Turning the rotor by rotating two fingers on the screen as if you were turning a dial changes the way VoiceOver moves through a document based on a setting you choose. For example, a flick up or down could move through text word by word or character by character, perfect for proofreading or editing text.
Video calling with FaceTime.
FaceTime on iPod touch makes it possible to have video calls with friends and family across the globe perfect for sign-language conversations. It works new iPod touch to new iPod touch or iPhone 4 over Wi-Fi just enter your Apple ID and email address. In fact, making video calls is as simple as it gets: Just tap the FaceTime app and find the person you want to call. An invitation pops up on their iPod touch or iPhone 4 screen asking if they want to join. When they accept, FaceTime begins. If somebody wants to start a video call with you, you’ll receive an invitation along with a vibrating alert on your iPod touch asking you to join. Simply tap Accept and the video call begins.
Zoom and magnify.
Zoom on iPod touch lets you magnify the entire screen of any application. Zoom up to 5 times normal size and move left, right, up and down to view any portion of the screen up close. Zoom works everywhere, including the Home, Unlock and Search screens and with every app you purchase from the App Store.
White on black for higher contrast.
If you prefer higher contrast, iPod touch lets you change the display to white on black. Use the White on Black feature in any application, as well as the Home, Unlock and Search screens and with Zoom and VoiceOver.
Mono audio.
If your hearing is limited in one ear, turn on Mono Audio to route audio into both earbuds, so you can hear both channels in either ear.
Voice Memos – Go ahead, say what’s on your mind.
Record memos (or any audio).
You might have a good memory. But sometimes, it’s nice to have a backup. Record notes from a lecture, a reminder of when tickets go on sale or a bet between you and a friend. With Voice Memos, you can record any audio you want using the built-in mic on iPod touch or an external mic. Voice Memos will even record while you use your iPod touch to do things such as check email or surf the web.
Cut to the chase.
You can trim recorded memos right on iPod touch. That way, you keep only what you need.
Organise your thoughts.
Keep all your memos organised by choosing labels from a predefined list or by creating custom labels.
Spread the word.
Send memos to your friends, classmates and co-workers via email. Memos you record on iPod touch sync back to your Mac or PC via iTunes, so you can share them later.
