News Apple OS Update : At Last - iOS 9 Won't Make You Delete Your Apps To Clear Space For iPhone Updates

Handy inbuilt feature on Apple's new iPhone software will automatically delete and reinstall apps to free up space for large system updates

The days of deleting hundreds of photos from your iPhone to free up space for large software updates are over - thanks to a new feature within forthcoming operating system iOS 9.
Whereas in the past users were left frantically deleting the apps and elements which took up the most space, if you try to download iOS 9 on an iPhone or iPad with insufficient storage you are presented with a message offering to temporarily delete some apps so the software can be updated. The apps are then reinstalled following the download completion.

    hate that my phone has no space and i still cant download ios 8... never buying a 16gb ever again
    — El Max (@DesertScumbag) November 4, 2014

    Had to delete all these apps for iOS 8, just to download them right after it and still have space
    — Mik (@MikaylaaPaige) September 20, 2014

    I downloaded iOS 8 and it didn't even work and now I can't download it again because it's taken up all the space on my phone
    — Tom Bristow (@TomBristow2) September 20, 2014

    IOS 8: 5GB of free space for a 1.3GB download. iOS 8.1: 2.2GB of free space for a 120MB download. Seriously Apple. https://t.co/pClo8E17q0
    — Micah Singleton (@MicahSingleton) October 20, 2014

    The iPhone iOS 8 update only requires 7 GB of free space, a 10 X 10 storage building, and an empty tractor trailer to download it you guys.
    — Blunty Sarcastic (@Blunt_Sarcastic) September 29, 2014


Apple made a big point during its iOS 9 presentation at its Worldwide Developers Conference (WWDC) earlier this month that the new update would require significantly less space than its predecessor. Once it's publicly available, iOS 9 will require 1.3GB of space, compared to iOS 8's whopping 4.58GB.

How the iOS 9 app deletion message will appear
  
The update is a smart method of ensuring as many iOS users as possible are running the latest version of the software. Around 84 per cent of iOS devices are currently running iOS 8, while 14 per cent are using iOS 7. Only 2 per cent are continuing to run iOS 6 or previous iterations, according to Apple. 

Updating to iOS 9 takes nowhere near as much space as iOS 8

iOS 9 will be available as a public beta program from next month, and the first Apple devices to ship with it are expected to be the next generation of iPhones, predicted to be announced in September.

Here are our picks for the 15 best iPhone apps you’re not using yet.

1. Sleepio (Free) :
 Insomnia is a vicious cycle — you become stressed when you can't get to sleep, and that stress, in turn, prevents you from ever falling asleep. Sleepio is your own personal sleep coach, helping you break through those sleepless nights and wake refreshed. The advice is personalized to your needs, using the app's own sleep questionnaire paired with any available sleeping data from trackers such as UP, Fitbit or Bodymedia. Your own program is then generated, helping you overcome your sleeping roadblocks and get a full night's sleep.

From $0.00

2. Google Translate (Free) :
 Language barriers can make international travel intimidating, but Google's Translate app will have you naturally conversing with the locals in seconds. The app can listen to two different languages and translate in real time, allowing you to set your phone on a table and simply chat with a foreign-language friend. Point your phone's camera at a billboard or sign, and the new Word Lens feature will instantly translate the text to your language — no Internet connection required.

There's also a privacy passcode lock for those who want to keep their diaries to themselves.

From $4.99

Overcast is the latest app by Tumblr co-creator Marco Arment, and it offers features such as Smart Speed, Voice Boost and cross-device episode syncing.

Breeze is a free app by RunKeeper that helps you stay active by tracking your activity using your iPhone's A7 chip. But unlike competitors, Breeze customizes your daily goal based on your previous week's activity, giving you encouragement to constantly break your own records rather than achieve some arbitrary pre-set step number.

Breeze strips out all the unnecessary charts and graphs, leaving you with just the motivation to keep on moving.

From $0.00
iTunes > VSCO Cam (Free)

This handy companion has gained some new features for iOS 7, including extended 24-hour and 7-day forecasts, and new global maps.

From $3.99
iTunes > Dark Sky ($3.99)

In case you're especially excited about your always-horizontal videos, Horizon supports sharing via Instagram, Facebook and Twitter.

From $1.99
iTunes > Horizon ($1.99)

12. WeChat (Free) : 
While most carriers offer unlimited texting, sending messages over your smartphone's stock app is usually a plain and limiting experience. The free WeChat app offers a sleek all-in-one portal for sending texts, making video and voice calls, leaving voice messages, and partaking in group chats. It doesn't end there, as WeChat packs loads of animated emoticons and a walkie-talkie feature that lets you tap to talk with up to 40 friends.

iPhone 5S To Include Fingerprint Scanner : WSJ

While we count down the hours to the much-awaited launch of Apple’s newest iPhones, more leaks and confirmations are coming in hard and fast regarding the specifications. The biggest feature of the anticipated launch has been the fingerprint scanner and it looks like the more expensive of the two handsets slated to be launched tonight will be home to it.

Rumours about the fingerprint scanner in the iPhone 5S have been doing the rounds of the tech circles for quite some time now, but The Wall Street Journal, ahead of the Tuesday event has more or less confirmed the feature. According to the report, the fancy feature will be a part of only the iPhone 5S and not the rumoured low-end iPhone 5C. 
The report is backed up with references to hardware of this sort that had been found in the beta version of iOS 7. A leak by developer Hamza Sood contained codes of a setup process that made a reference to a biometric scanner located within iPhone’s home button. The description of the sensor showed users placing their fingers on the iPhone’s Home button and seeing an image of a thumbprint in changing colours.

While the technology of fingerprint recognition has been an often visited one by tech companies in order to avoid the need to remember passwords, it hasn’t quite been done right yet. The report by WSJ now notes that newer technology allows for devices to take multiple scans with the finger held in one place, thereby increasing reliability of the readings compared to older technology.

The Cupertino based company will be adding the fingerprint scanner on the more expensive of the two devices, the iPhone 5S, which will by far be the most high-profile consumer electronic device to be home to a fingerprint scanner. The key to widespread public adoption is touted to be the technology’s reliability and ease of use.

Apple’s event is all set to be held tonight at its Cupertino headquarters and will see the launch of the iPhone 5S and iPhone 5C.

Galaxy Grand Or iPhone 4: Which Cash-Back Offer Makes More Sense?

Even if you have not been studying the magazines consistently, possibilities are you would have seen The apple company and Samsung’s large ad strategies for their mobile phones.

While Apple’s strategy concentrates more on the two generations-old iPhone 4 with eye-catching EMI techniques and cash-back provides, New samsung has been promotion intensely for the Galaxy Large, which was declared in Jan and has been a hot supplier ever since. Under Apple’s provide, even the iPhone 4S and 5 are protected, however, the better cash-back deal is for the iPhone 4 in evaluation with the more latest mobile phones.

Given a choice and the price variety versatility, the query gazing many prospective smart phone customers in the encounter is, which provide to click up. Yes, we know the evaluation is, on the encounter of it, unjust, because while the Galaxy Large is a few months old, the iPhone 4 is about to turn three soon. But the iPhone 4 still has an excellent fan following and even despite its age is not all that obsolete. The Galaxy Large, while new, isn't exactly the best system out there with regards to specifications, with a lot of solutions in its cost variety. 

However, the moment of the ad strategies in addition to excellent sales of both devices has tossed up the query of which one should you choose. Both companies’ cash-back provides run until the 30 of Apr and there is no cap time frame on the EMI techniques. So these last few times of Apr are an excellent probability to renew your cellphone.

Let’s start with the iPhone 4, which is perhaps not as clean in the consumers’ thoughts. The iPhone 4 was a significant product for The apple company from a style perspective. It presented the popular cup returning and eschewed the rounded returning for the streamlined returning board. Overall, the cellphone looks well designed and at enough time, it was teams before any other smartphone’s style.

In conditions of the specifications, the iPhone 4 does not show its age. Buyers will get a 3.5-inch show with a 640 x 960 quality, which results in a pixel solidity of 330 PPI, which The apple company has known as Retina show. In conditions of performance, the iPhone 4 is operated by the The apple company A4 processor, which is a 1GHz Cortex-A8 processor processor and there happens to be PowerVR SGX535 GPU in tow. While the handling power might seem missing, one has to understand that Apple’s application is completely optimized to run on the components and as such, performance problems will likely be non-existent. The iPhone 4 even got the newest formal upgrade, iOS 6.1.3, which places it on par with the iPhone 4S and 5 with regards to the application encounter, to a large level. The only area where we feel the iPhone 4 could stand up poorly in evaluation to the Galaxy Large is the photographic camera. The 5-megapixel photographic camera on the iPhone 4 took excellent images, but eventually it is a two-year-old component. Moreover, it can only capture video clips up to 720p. 

In evaluation to the iPhone 4, the Galaxy Grand’s style is a completely different monster. It is by no means a leading system but Samsung's  leading during the iPhone 4's time, the Galaxy S2 is not all that different from the Galaxy Large.

The shiny nasty complete, the detachable returning protect and the overstated shapes of the product are the complete opposites of their edition in the iPhone 4. But where the iPhone 4 only has a 3.5-inch show, customers of the Large will get a nice 5-inch show. Not everything is excellent, though. The iPhone still beats the Galaxy Grand’s WVGA quality. In conditions of processor processor and application encounter, the Large benefits from the addition of Android operating system 4.1.2 Jam Vegetable, while the dual-core Broadcom 1.2GHz processor processor is more than enough to run the simplest edition of Android operating system. In the photographic camera division, the Large has a minor advantage thanks to the 8-megapixel photographic camera and the capability to capture full HD video clips.

Both have been hot suppliers in the marketplace. The Large has been promoting like hot desserts, and we have also effectively discovered that the iPhone 4 inventory in the marketplace has run out and more inventory is inbound. We were informed that suppliers, merchants and even greyish industry inventory of the cellphone has exhausted. Clearly, the lure of an iPhone for as low as under Rs 20,000 after the cash-back plan has connected many seafood. But Samsung’s Galaxy Large has a minor advantage considering its identical cost, the bigger show, the more latest photographic camera and the quicker processor processor. The only places where we would give the fight to the iPhone 4 are the style and the display quality. In addition, there's the element that not everyone might like a 5-inch show on their smart phone and for them the iPhone 4 is a lightweight substitute.

When it comes to applications and activities, nowadays, iOS and Android operating system are approximately on par, with most new applications releasing on both systems. But Android operating system does provide customization choices which set it apart from iOS and this has been a huge element in the success of the system. 

There’s one more element at play here. The Galaxy Large, due to its 2013 culture, could benefit from upcoming up-dates of Android operating system. However, since the iPhone 4 was released truly and there is an iPhone 5S on its way later this season, The apple company might choose to or could be compelled to (due to components limitations) live and retire the iPhone 4 from the upgrade list when iOS 7 comes out.

The cost distinction publish cash-back discount rates is not that high. The iPhone 4 will be available for 19,500 with the highest possible cash-back of Rs 7,000, while the Galaxy Large comes to around 17,000 after bookkeeping for the cash-back provide. So the discussion eventually depends upon which will be a more future-proof cellphone. This is where the age of the iPhone 4 could be a drawback.

Given all these aspects, we think it would be smarter to go for the New samsung Galaxy Large in contrast to an iPhone 4. It is the more latest cellphone and eventually, with the exception of the style and construction, we think it is the more deserving choice.
