You may have noticed that everyone has been enthralled with their iDevices more than usual this week. It’s probably because they are busy organizing their 1,947 apps into structured folders or multitasking by listening to music on Pandora while uploading pictures onto Flickr.
This week Apple released its newest operating system, iOS 4. The upgrade, in some form, is available to iPhone 3G and 3GS users, second and third generation iPod Touch owners and will be available to iPad users in the fall. While Apple brags that iOS 4 offers 100 new features, the buzz seems most to be surrounding these improvements:
Multitasking: You are now able to run and switch back and forth between third party apps without slowing down the performance of the main app or draining the battery.
Folders: Gain access to your favorite apps at the drop of a hat by organizing them into folders. Users are able to manage up to 2,160 apps by simply dragging and dropping them into the appropriate folder.
Enterprise Support: iOS 4 works with Exchange 2010 so users are now able to sync their calendar, contacts and email with more than one Exchange account.
Convinced you want to download the iOS 4 upgrade yet? Maybe adding that it is free will help persuade you. Still not sure? How about adding that it’s only four simple steps:
1. Upgrade your iTunes version to 9.2.
2. We recommend you back up your data before running the install, so plug in your iOS device via USB and hit Sync.
3. When you’re done syncing, click Check for Update.
4. Download iOS 4, then follow the on-screen instructions to install.
That’s it!
