Just finished the presentation of the long-awaited iPhone 5, we can now offer you some hints about the applications and functions that we have been able to see. Although we already know some sketches with the beta versions of the iOS 6 operating system that this terminal will bring, here we present what has already been confirmed you can make this impressive smartphone
The first thing that has been shown to us in this presentation or keynote is that the official app store of Apple is still very much alive and constantly growth Currently there are already 700,000 the applications available, of which 200,000 have been created especially for the tabletof this company, the iPad Undoubtedly growth that will be boosted with the launch of the new device, as your new screen requires another format of longer images. Something that will not make it incompatible with the applications that are already available. And it is that it has been confirmed that, if they are not adapted, they will be seen with a black stripe at the top and bottom of the screen As was the case with the old televisions to adapt to widescreen format
And precisely, speaking of this format panoramic, one of the first functions that this iPhone presents 5 is the call Panorama A skill that, although it is nothing new in the world of smartphone, is a utility that is increasingly used by users. With it it is possible to take photos in panoramic format, linking several wide-width captures and being able to collect images that span up to 240 degrees Something that also stands out for the quality of these images, which reach 28 megapixels
But the visual section is not the only thing that has attracted attention. The sound has also had its space. Specifically, the one that picks up the terminal itselfAnd it is that its physical characteristics now allow filter the sound picked up by the microphone, being able to suppress noiseto hear only the voice. Something that, as they have commented in the presentation, the mobile operators could take advantage of to improve the quality of calls
But it's not the only good news in terms of sound. Also the voice assistant Siri, which will finally arrive in Spanish, would benefit from this feature of iPhone 5 This well-known tool also brings itself improvements, among which stands out powerlaunch other applications through a voice command. But not only that, it also offers recommendations about first-run movies in the theater, results and statistics of our favorite sports team , update our Facebook status and reply with a message SMS or iMessagesorry in case of not being able to answer a callIssues that we fear will not be fully functional in Spain at the time of arrival of this terminal.
Another application that we already knew was coming, and that has caused a lot to talk about, has also had its place in this presentation. We refer to Maps, the tool of mapas exclusive to Apple A utility that not only allows us to know the streets and places around the world (more than 100 million points of interest), but it will allow us to know how to get there step by step , acting as a GPS navigator And even more, it has been possible to see the function Flyoverin all its glory. The one that allows us to see the maps in three dimensions, with land and buildings in volume
The web browser of iPhone, the famousSafari, has also shown what's new in this presentation. Among them is a service related to the cloud called iCloud Tab This allows Swap and access open tabs in the iPhone 5 browser on your computer But that's not the only thing. We have also included the possibility to extend the size of the tabs to full size, taking advantage of the dimensions of the new screen.
This presentation has also served to present a new tool. An application called Passbook to purchase discount coupons and ticketsIn addition, it is also focused on keeping a complete record of our flights, with information always on the screen, even when it is blocked to be able to check the flight, boarding gate, etc
Finally, the news has been shown on one of the best-known platforms of Apple: iTunes Thus, it has been enhanced for the iPad, with a carousel view that allows us to listen to the test or the song that is being reproduced, being able to continue consulting other menus. For the rest of the devices, the playlist creation system has also been improved, allowing each new element to be chosen to be play following the track that is playing All applied to the sections of movies and booksAll of these features will arrive in a new version of iTunes scheduled for October
