iOS 5

TuralyonW3 · 10-14-2011, 03:41 AM

Tabbed browser and split keyboard on ipad. fuck yes

sppunk · 10-14-2011, 09:06 AM

Safari on the iPhone 4 flies. And thank God for the iMessage program, so I can stop paying for texts (fucking rip off right there).

Eulogy · 10-14-2011, 10:02 AM

does everyone you know have an iphone?

sppunk · 10-14-2011, 10:05 AM

Mostly, yeah. Paying for texts (I don't text often to begin without, outside my family, my wife and two close friends) will be cheaper individually now with iMessage.

mxzombie · 10-14-2011, 11:55 AM

i'm taking the ios5 plunge this weekend. i usually like to let others beta it for a few days.

Nimrod's Son · 10-14-2011, 12:18 PM

the message notification function combined with the quick camera make it worth it just for those.

brendo_91 · 10-14-2011, 02:21 PM

ios5's quick camera is now officially quicker than starting up and shooting a shot with my little point and shoot. boom, headshot.

Eulogy · 10-14-2011, 02:25 PM

yeah the camera thing is great. i can only remember a handful of times where it prevented me from getting a picture i wanted, but still. NEVER AGAIN!

the new notifications from the lock screen don't work the way i'd like them to. i'll probably jail break again just to get lockinfo back.

Netphorian Gadabout · 10-14-2011, 04:05 PM

I can't get my Ipad to upgrade. It downloads the 700mb file then it says its backing up my ipad and it just sits there all day saying "Backing Up".

What do you want it to do?

before i had three collapsable tabs.. one for unread email. one for unread messages, and one for 7-day weather forecast.

i could clear spam without unlocking my phone. also now if you unlock your phone any notications from the lock screen are gone forever. i don't always want to deal with them right away.

basically i would want the notification center to pop up as the lock screen.

Apparently it's been hit-or-miss the last couple days. I'm sure once the initial rush dies down it'll be easier.

It took me almost three hours to do it.

iOS 5 has really transformed my life. I've never been happier!

mxzombie · 10-14-2011, 05:30 PM

there are a bunch of siri easter eggs. anyone with a 4s try asking siri to "open the bay doors" a la 2001

yo soy el mejor · 10-14-2011, 05:33 PM

what is siri?

mxzombie · 10-14-2011, 05:40 PM

it's the voice control assistant application on the iphone 4s. it is able to parse and analyze natural language to allow the user to ask questions (e.g. "do i need an umbrella today?" yields the response, "looks like rain in your area!" with a local weather report) or perform tasks on the phone like writing text messages, creating appointments or reminders, and a lot of other stuff.

SlingeroGuitaro · 10-14-2011, 07:17 PM

I held off buying the 4, but just updated my 3GS. I might get one now

duovamp · 10-15-2011, 01:06 AM

Posting from my iPhone 4S right now. Sup.

My gramma gave me her old first gen iPad with iOS 5.1.1

This thread is three years old.

Lucky Day Spa · 05-27-2014, 06:04 PM

classic gramma

Lucky Day Spa · 05-27-2014, 06:04 PM

iOS 8 next week, gramma

slunken · 05-27-2014, 07:04 PM

Good grief. I've seen more updates since Jobs died than ever

Mooney · 05-27-2014, 07:06 PM

blackberry is going to come back and conquer all!

joking aside, i highly recommend BB10 to anyone who actually uses their phone as a communication device.
