Among the main innovations announced by Apple itself are the iCloud cloud photo archive for viewing photos and videos on all devices, the Handoff function for convenient work with multiple devices, an improved keyboard, a new Health application, and interactive notifications.

Application activity monitoring

In iOS 8, a new section appeared in the menu that collects statistics on battery consumption. In this section called “Battery Usage” you can find data about which application has used up the most battery power in the last 24 hours or in the last week. You can get to this section using the following path: “Basic -> Statistics -> Battery Usage”.

Recovering deleted photos

The Photos app and iCloud Photo Archive are designed to consolidate and make all your photos and videos accessible anytime, anywhere. Now all your Photos will be easier to find and organized the same way across all your devices. Another innovation in this area was the addition of a new album “Recently Deleted”, which is located next to the album “Recently Added”. Album “Recently Deleted” – This is a kind of “cart”; all the photos you deleted are transferred to this album, from where you can delete them permanently or restore photos you mistakenly deleted.

Mark as read in iMessage

A new feature in iOS 8 for iMessage makes it easy to mark all messages as read.

Switching to the desktop version of the site

The Safari browser now has the option to switch from the mobile version of the site to the desktop version.

Adding an RSS Feed in Safari

Improved private mode in Safari

In Safari, you can now choose which tabs to turn on private browsing. In other words, you can simultaneously keep tabs open in both normal and private mode and switch between them.

Black and white mode

iOS 8 added a black and white interface mode; this mode is located in the Accessibility menu (“special capabilities”, for people with disabilities). You can switch to this mode by following the path: Basic -> Accessibility -> Grayscale.

Buy songs using Siri

Now Siri will be able not only to identify the song you heard, but also to purchase it at your request in iTunes. Notably, you won't need to ask Siri, "What song is playing?" – just bring your device to the sound source, and Siri itself will begin to determine what kind of track is being played.

Organize your books in iBooks

iBooks became the default app in iOS 8, and several interesting new features were added to the app. You can edit the order in which books are displayed in your library at your discretion, and when you click on the new “Categories” button that appears, you can filter books by title, author, or other criteria.

Putting a FaceTime call on hold

Apple has added a new option to FaceTime: call hold. I think there is no need to describe this function in detail; it is already known to everyone, but if someone else calls you during a conversation, now you can use the hold mode using the corresponding button on the screen.

Fast routes in Maps

Another new feature that will allow you to plot routes in Apple maps, and you can also view alternative routes in other applications, for example, in Yandex.Maps or Google Maps.

Burst timer

Apple is finally adding a built-in timer option for photo shooting. True, the choice options are not very large - only 3 or 10 seconds. In this case, you can use burst shooting.

iTunes Radio on Lock Screen

The iTunes Radio service in iOS 8 has received expanded integration with the lock screen. As you listen to tracks, you can add the song to your wishlist and quickly purchase it from the iTunes Store.

Inserting bank card data using the camera

Now you don’t need to manually enter your bank card details; just take a photo of it. The card details will appear in the appropriate fields, thus minimizing the chances of erroneous input.

Quick access to applications from lockscreen based on geolocation

Quickly launch applications from the lock screen. For quick launch, a small icon has appeared in the lower left corner of the lockscreen. For example, if you are near a Starbucks or an Apple Store, the geolocation service will detect this and display the corresponding icon on the lock screen and you will not need to unlock the device - you can launch the corresponding application directly from the lock screen.

Integration of the anonymous search engine DuckDuckGo

Google is the most popular search service, but some users prefer to use alternative solutions. iOS 8 added support for the anonymous search engine DuckDuckGo. It appeared both in the mobile operating system and in the Apple desktop platform.

Manage your Apple ID

In previous versions of iOS, Apple ID management was only available through iTunes and the App Store. Now you can easily edit your personal information in the iCloud settings section. You can change your password, add credit cards, or add Family Sharing members.

Personal health record on the lock screen

Health is another new standard app in iOS 8 that lets you add your personal health record to your lock screen. In an emergency, the doctor will be able to access the user’s necessary medical data directly from the iPhone screen, without unlocking.

Smartphones developed by Apple have long taken a strong position in the mobile phone market. Nevertheless, the operating system of Apple phones still has untapped capabilities that you didn’t even know about.

website shares with you some amazing tricks you can do with your iPhone.

Timer for music playback

Now, before going to bed, you can enjoy your favorite tunes without worrying about not falling asleep and leaving the music playing all night. Just set the timer for the time you need, which is located on the “Clock” tab. In the “When finished” section, instead of the specified ringtone, select “Stop” and fall asleep. Your phone will do the rest of the work for you. A real find for audiobook lovers!

Creating a Unique Vibration

Instead of the standard vibration pattern for text messages, you can easily create your own template.

  • Go to your phone settings, then “Sounds” > “Ringtones” > “Vibration”. Select the section labeled “Create Vibration.”
  • Start recording and tap the screen in time with the desired vibration rhythm. After this, stop recording and save your template. It will be stored in the “Vibration” subsection (ringtone menu), in the “Custom” list.

Additionally, you can create a personalized vibration for each contact in your phone book.

Cleaning the device's RAM

To make your iPhone run faster, try clearing the device's RAM. You can do this with a few simple steps:

  • Press and hold your device's power button until the power off slider appears.
  • Without making the usual swipe on the shutdown slider, press and hold the “Home” button.
  • After a few seconds, you will see a slight flicker on the screen and then be taken back to your desktop. At this point, the RAM of the iPhone or iPad will be cleared and the device will start working faster.

Time to send the message

You can easily find out the exact time a message was sent with a few simple steps:

  • Go to the Messages app.
  • Now open the conversation that has the message you're interested in.
  • Swipe from the right edge of the screen to the left.
  • The date and time it was sent or received will appear next to each message.

Character counter for SMS

To avoid manually counting the characters used in a message, enable the standard counter function on your iPhone:

  • Open the Settings app and find the Messages section.
  • In the “Messages” section, opposite the “Number of characters” item, activate the slider.

Ready! As soon as you start typing your message, you'll almost immediately notice a character counter on the side that shows how many characters you've already entered.

Shooting video with the screen off

If you want to prevent others from noticing you taking photos or videos, do the following:

  • On the locked screen, press the “Camera” button and raise the “curtain” that appears halfway.
  • While continuing to keep the shutter half-open, switch to video mode if necessary and press the record button.
  • Double click on the “Home” button three times.
  • Hold the “curtain” until the screen goes completely dark and remember that recording is already in progress!
  • If you want to interrupt video recording, activate your device as usual and stop recording in the menu.

Rewind audio and video

You can change the rewind speed by moving the slider. So, the yellow area is used for fast rewinding, the red area rewinds twice as slow, and the green area takes even longer.

Call an extension number

If you want to call an extension from your iPhone, dial the main number and then press star for a few seconds. A comma will appear on the screen after the main number, enter the extension number and press “Call”.

Changing the panorama shooting direction

Easily change the panorama shooting direction on iPhone by simply tapping the arrow on your phone screen.

Removing numbers in a calculator

If you notice an error in the number you typed, delete any outer digit by swiping your finger to the left or right in the input field.

Quick ambulance call

If you fill out your “medical record” on your phone in advance, anyone can provide doctors with information that is important to save your life in a critical situation. We recommend that you include at least your blood type and information about what medications you may be allergic to.

Recovering closed pages in Safari

To see your most recently opened tabs in Safari, simply tap the “+” icon at the bottom of the screen.

Offline maps

If you have previously downloaded the required map, then by writing “OK maps” in the search, you will be able to use the viewed maps offline.

Hidden "Field Test" application

Service codes are available on the iPhone, with which you can get various information about the gadget, mobile operator and cellular network. A simple call to *3001#12345#* can open a hidden menu with information about the SIM card, cellular operator network, signal strength, etc.

Increase Wi-Fi speed

  • Return to the previous menu and scroll down to “Keyboard Shortcuts.” Turn on the only item “Zoom” (check the box opposite).
  • Press the “Home” key three times in a row and tap on the joystick controller that appears. Bring the slider to its minimum value and open the Select Filter function.
  • Set the Low Light filter and hide the controller.
  • Disabling Tabs in Apple Music

    The emergence of the Apple Music service has significantly expanded the horizons of preferences for music lovers, but a number of extra tabs somewhat complicate interaction with the familiar program. You can remove tabs that you don’t need (provided that the service itself doesn’t interest you) using a few simple steps:

    • Go to Settings > Music.
    • Turn off the Show Apple Music slider.
    • Go to Settings > General > Restrictions. Enter the set password.
    • Disable the "Connect to Apple Music" option.

    Surely there are situations when your phone freezes or simply “acts up” and refuses to work properly. Give your iPhone a little time out. To do this, hold down the “Home” and “On/off” buttons until the iPhone screen goes dark. This may take up to 10 seconds. Your phone will then restart and the Apple logo will appear on the screen.
