At the Worldwide Developers Conference (WWDC 2014) Apple today announced the long-awaited iOS 8 which comes with several improvements and new features, something one would expect from the Cupertino company. The beta version is already available for developers.
The company introduced iOS 8 as the biggest release since the launch of the App Store and announced that the goal of the new operating system is to offer users a more intuitive experience with iCloud Photo Library, new messaging features that can now share voice, video or and photos.
iOS 8 also brings QuickType to Apple's smart typing keyboard, Family Sharing, and the new iCloud Drive that will finally make iCloud usable like our familiar Dropbox.
Craig Federighi, senior vice president of Software Engineering της Apple, ανέφερε, “το iΟS 8 προσφέρει ένα απλούστερο, ταχύτερο και πιο έξυπνο τρόπο για να χρησιμοποιήσετε τη συσκευή σας με απίστευτες νέες possibilities, like iCloud Photo Library, a new messaging app, the QuickType keyboard, and an all-new Health app.”
“We also offer developers some great news tools to make managing apps on your devices a complete, simple and secure experience," Federighi added.
IOS 8 as we mentioned above is readily available for developers in beta (for everyone else, patience), and will be released to the audience this autumn along with the launch of the new iPhone 6. Supports devices from iPhone 4S onwards, iPad 2 and later, and iPod touch fifth generation.
