IPhone Development Companies Upgrade iPhone, Competition 3G S Not Far Behind
IPhone users have been waiting patiently for nearly 2 years for an upgrade and they got what they been waiting for in iPhone 3.0 which launched in late June. At the same time their competition, the new 3G S, has burst onto the scene with a similar phone including app stores and Google search capabilities.
IPhone development companies have been busy perfecting the iPhone 3.0 while Google representatives have been busy doing the same thing to their smart phone. The iPhone obliterates its competition when it comes to third-party applications; the iPhone apps stores has over 50,000 plus applications with new ones being added every couple of days through iPhone developers for hire. Many businesses hire iPhone developers to custom build an app store in order for them to reach more customers because of the smart phones growing popularity.
The new 3G S device has the latest software already downloaded; however there are upgrades available if a person feels the need to splurge for such items like the screen reader which reads what’s on the screen for the visually impaired, a video camera and new voice controls.
With the voice controls on the 3G S phones, a person can save themselves time because instead of dialing you simply say the person’s name out loud, for example “dial Chris Mueller”. However, you must also specify home, mobile or office and if you don’t the phone has a voice prompt to ask you which “dial Chris Mueller” you wanted.
Another nice touch with the voice controls is playing music and being able to stop the music by saying “pause music” or “what band is playing this song” or even “play more music by this band.” These are all great additions; however in noisy areas the voice control for both music and dial phone numbers is not perfect. Always be sure to look at who the phone is dialing before starting to speak.
One of the biggest changes in the iPhone is a copy and paste availability that was once only reserved for computers. Now a person could copy and paste from the Internet into a text message or e-mail with the same ease as they do on the computer. With the copy and paste on the iPhone, one simply uses their finger to double-click on the word or message then drag the little grabbers to extend the selection. On the web you simply tap against a text block before expanding it and when you’re done you tap on the onscreen copy button, then inserted where it needs to go and tap paste. The neat thing about this is if you’ve made a mistake, you simply shake your phone and it erases it.
And one must not forget the games, the iPhone game developers have been busy upgrading and updating the video games available on all iPhones to the various apps.
