Compatibility, stability and performance. New Apple Music app design
Some features in iOS 10 are of great interest to users mobile devices, but lose jailbreak for the sake of iOS installations Not everyone is ready for 10. In this case, you can simply implement new firmware features using an unofficial software from Cydia. We'll tell you how to do it right now! In this article we will look at 10 key functions iOS 10, which can be obtained using tweaks.
- Siri support for third party apps
At the conference, Apple announced that it was opening the API voice assistant For third party developers. This means that developers can now use Siri capabilities in your applications. Note that the platform has been in existence for some time AssistantExtensions, which allows you to use the resources of the voice assistant.
2. Automatically wake up your smartphone
In iOS 10, they implemented a system for automatically waking up your smartphone when you pick it up from the table, for example. That is, now you do not need to press a button to wake up the gadget. Exactly the same function is available on Android devices called Doze. The tweak store also has a similar solution - tweak FaceOff. The setting allows you to set sleep mode when you place your smartphone face down. And program the device to wake up when you pick it up.
3. Using stickers in Messages
iMessage has a lot of innovations for users. One of them is the ability to send each other stickers, similar to Facebook Messenger. For jailbreakers, this feature can be implemented using a tweak StickerMe. Jailbreak setting allows you to send stickers from Facebook messenger via iMessage. The recipient will be able to open them even if his smartphone is not hacked.
4. New Item management
In iOS 10, Control Center now consists of several pages. A similar structure of this interface element can be implemented using a tweak. The implementation looks slightly different, but the meaning is the same.
5. Interactive notifications
New notifications allow you to get expanded access to data directly from the lock screen, unlike previous version firmware. I immediately remember the tweak 3D Touch Notifications. The design is very similar, but the functioning is slightly different.
6. 3D Touch for the Weather app
In iOS 10, you can use 3D Touch gestures on the Weather icon to see weather data in current location without starting the application. In the Saurik store, this option has long been implemented as a tweak.
7. New design applications Apple Music
With a tweak you can change appearance music service, adjusting blur effects, text color and other parameters.
8. Handwritten messages
IN new firmware the user can write messages by hand rather than entering them from the keyboard. There is such a tweak Graffiti, which implements the same idea. True, the tweak never received support for the latest firmware versions.
9. Removal standard applications on the main screen
Finally there is an opportunity to delete standard applications on iOS. Before unnecessary applications I had to hide it in a separate folder. Although jailbreakers have long been using tweaks to hide “apps” from the main screen.
10. Widgets on the lock screen
By swiping from left to right, the user now gets access to widgets. is one of the most popular tweaks that implements a similar task.
Two weeks have passed since the release of the final iOS versions 10, which you can read more about in . During this time, Apple's new mobile operating system has managed to spread to a significant number of compatible devices.
At the same time, not all innovations turned out to be quite obvious to users; many are not noticeable at first glance. We will talk about them within the framework of this material.
1. Close all tabs at once in Safari
If you like to open several tabs in the browser at once, then you will certainly appreciate this innovation in iOS 10. There is no longer a need to close each tab yourself. Just press and hold the tab switch button in the lower right corner of the screen on iPhone or in the right top corner on iPad to display a new menu asking you to create new tab or close all open tabs.
Thus, creating a new tab or closing everything at once has now become much easier. By the way, the limit on their number has also been lifted, at least create three hundred.
Previously, iOS for iPad introduced the ability to use SplitView to display two applications on one screen at once. In iOS 10, Apple went even further and allowed two tabs to be opened simultaneously in Safari. Just press and hold your finger on any link and select from context menu“Open in SplitView” option.
You can also hold down the tab switch button and select “Open SplitView” from the menu that appears. In addition, when using Safari, you can open a second application on the right edge of the screen and select another copy of the browser there.
3. Siri announces the caller's name when there is an incoming call
This is not to say that this opportunity is completely new. For example, it was implemented in Nokia smartphones on Symbian-based a few years ago. However, the iPhone may well lack it. The point is that Siri will pronounce the name of the person who is calling you in a voice. currently. This feature is activated as follows: Settings → Phone → Call Announcement.
There are three options for using this feature: say the name always, when using headphones and in the car, or only when using headphones. At the very least, it begs to be using Siri so as not to take out your smartphone again when listening to music.
Modern instant messengers are a very significant item of traffic expenditure for active users. Apple offers to save on image transfer costs by sending images from worst quality when using a cellular network.
To activate this function, go to the “Settings” menu, then open the “Messages” item and select “Mode Low quality" When using the network Wi-Fi limitation will not work.
5. Apple Maps remembers where you parked your car.
Endless wanderings around the parking lot looking for the place where you left your car will soon end. In iOS 10, built-in maps remember where you parked. To do this you need to activate this option in the “Settings” menu by selecting “Maps”.
Additionally, to save your vehicle's location, your smartphone must receive a parking signal. The iPhone uses the car's CarPlay or a regular connection to multimedia system via Bluetooth. If the connection is lost, you will receive a notification that the parking location has been saved.
6. New 3D Touch features
In iOS 10, pressure recognition on the screen, called 3D Touch, has turned from a promising innovation into a truly useful addition. So, using 3D Touch, you can adjust the brightness of the flashlight, set the timer to certain time, delete absolutely all notifications in two taps, and even set priority when downloading applications.
If out of two or three downloaded programs one is of greater interest to you, then you can speed up its loading by pressing hard on the icon of the corresponding application, increasing the priority. Overall, there are plenty of innovations related to 3D Touch. Don't be lazy to test your favorite applications to see if they are available.
7. Camera as a magnifying glass
People with not very good eyesight iPhone camera or iPad can now help you enlarge specific object or text to look at it better. To activate this mode you need to go to Settings → General → Universal access and activate the “Magnifying glass” option.
After that, just press the Home button three times to quickly launch Magnifier.
8. Music can be deleted automatically when there is not enough memory
Owners of iPhone and iPad with minimal volumes memory has to be carefully balanced between the music loaded on the device and disk space allocated for other needs. With iOS 10 this will be easier.
Go to Settings → Music and activate the “Storage optimization” option. Now, when the built-in memory is full, the system will automatically delete stored music, starting with the one you haven’t listened to for a long time.
By the way, in the same settings section there was a function “ Automatic downloads", which allows you to automatically load songs added to your library into memory. It can be useful.
Now all the data about your activity collected by the same name system application and the Health program, can be saved separately from the backup, which can sometimes be useful. To do this, you need to open the “Health” application and on the “Meddata” screen, click on the profile icon in the upper right corner of the screen. At the bottom there will be a button “Export medical data”.
