蘋果在周一(6/10)舉行的WWDC年度全球開發人員大會上發表了新一代的iOS 7,宣稱它是iPhone問世以來最大的平台改版,並內建iTunes Radio音樂串流服務,預計於秋天開放下載。
iOS 7採用半透明的介面設計,讓它的首頁畫面看起來更漂亮;此外,它讓iOS上的功能更有秩序,新增了控制中心(Control Center)與通知中心(Notification Center);改善了多工、照片程式、Safari、Siri,並推出新的AirDrop分享功能與iTunes Radio音樂串流服務。
蘋果表示,iOS 7是一個完全重新設計、具備新使用介面的平台,但iOS用戶即刻便能熟悉它,每個設計都會利用全螢幕,讓手機看起來更大,新的字型在Retina螢幕上看起來也更清晰。
iOS 7新的控制中心允許使用者快速存取各種常用功能,例如飛航模式(Airplane Mode)、藍牙或Do Not Disturb。也能調整螢幕亮度、切換歌曲或自AirPlay串流音樂,或是快速存取包括時鐘、相機、計算機或手電筒等常用程式。
通知中心在新平台上可出現在鎖住的螢幕上,含有一新的Today功能以瀏覽當天的重要資訊,例如天氣、交通、會議或活動等。
蘋果在iOS 7中釋出了新的API以允許開發人員打造可於背景多工執行的程式,並讓使用者可更直覺地切換程式,也會自動於背景更新那些最常用的程式。AirDrop則是一P2P分享功能,當使用者欲分享內容時,它會顯示正處附近的友人名單,直接點選即可進行分享。
iOS 7的相機程式含有濾鏡功能,可即時製造照片特效,並新增了正方型照片拍攝選項;重新設計的照片程式有一可根據拍攝時間及地點自動分類的Moments功能。
之前外界猜測的iTunes Radio音樂串流服務也出現在iOS 7中,這是一個提供逾200個電台的網路廣播服務,它能夠依照使用者於iTunes所購買或聆聽的音樂來進行電台的客製化。iTunes Radio將採用廣告贊助模式,使用者可免費存取該服務。
iOS 7將支援iPhone 4、iPad 2及iPod touch 5以後的裝置,以及iPad mini,但並非iOS 7的全部功能都會在所有裝置上出現。iOS 7的測試版與SDK已可供開發人員下載,而正式版預計在今年秋天出爐。
Apple Unveils iOS 7
Completely Redesigned With Stunning User Interface & Great New Features
SAN FRANCISCO―June 10, 2013―Apple® today unveiled iOS 7, the most significant iOS update since the original iPhone®, featuring a stunning new user interface. iOS 7 is completely redesigned with subtle motion, an elegant color palette and distinct, functional layers that make it feel more alive. The typography has been refined for a cleaner, simpler look, and the use of translucency and motion makes even simple tasks more engaging. iOS 7 has hundreds of great new features, including Control Center, Notification Center, improved Multitasking, AirDrop®, enhanced Photos, Safari®, Siri® and introduces iTunes Radio™, a free Internet radio service based on the music you listen to on iTunes®.
“iOS 7 is the most significant iOS update since the original iPhone,” said Craig Federighi, Apple’s senior vice president of Software Engineering. “To create it, we brought together a team with a broad range of expertise from design to engineering. With what we’ve been able to achieve together, we see iOS 7 as an exciting new beginning.”
“There is a profound and enduring beauty in simplicity, in clarity, in efficiency. True simplicity is derived from so much more than just the absence of clutter and ornamentation—it’s about bringing order to complexity,” said Jony Ive, Apple’s senior vice president of Design. “iOS 7 is a clear representation of these goals. It has a whole new structure that is coherent and applied across the entire system.”
iOS 7 is completely redesigned with an entirely new user interface, but will be instantly familiar to the hundreds of millions of iPhone, iPad® and iPod touch® users around the world. The new interface actually makes your phone appear bigger because everything is designed to take advantage of the entire screen. The redesigned fonts look amazing on the Retina® display, creating even sharper text.
iOS 7 introduces Control Center. Now the controls you want to access quickly are all in one convenient place. With just one swipe from the bottom of your screen, you have access to controls for Airplane Mode, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth or Do Not Disturb, and the ability to adjust screen brightness, pause or play a song, jump to the next track and stream your music with AirPlay®. Control Center also gives you instant access to apps such as Clock, Camera, Calculator and the Flashlight.
With iOS 7, Notification Center is now available from the Lock screen so you can see all your notifications with a simple swipe, and the new Today feature in Notification Center gives you an at-a-glance view of your day with a summary of the important details such as weather, traffic, meetings and events.
With improved Multitasking in iOS 7, developers have the ability to enable any app to multitask in the background with a new API. Users have the ability to switch between their apps in a more visual and intuitive way, and iOS 7 pays attention to which apps you use most and automatically keeps your content up to date in the background.
AirDrop is an entirely new way to quickly and easily share content with people nearby. When you’ve got something you want to share, AirDrop shows you your contacts close by. Just select who you want to share with and AirDrop does the rest. AirDrop transfers are peer-to-peer so you can use it anywhere, without any network or set up required, and transfers are fully encrypted so your content is protected and private.
iPhones are used to take more photos around the world every day than any other camera, and with iOS 7 the new Camera app features filters so you can add real-time photo effects. The Camera app now includes a square camera option, and you can quickly and easily switch between your four cameras—video, photo, square and panorama—with just a swipe.
iOS 7 includes a redesigned Photos app that introduces Moments, a new way to automatically organize your photos and videos based on time and location. You can zoom out to see all your photos organized by Moments, Collections of Moments and Years. iOS 7 includes iCloud Photo Sharing, the easiest way to share just the photos you want with just the people you want. With iCloud® Photo Sharing, family and friends can contribute their own photos and videos to your shared photo streams, and the new Activity view displays updates from your shared streams all in one place.
Safari’s redesigned user interface lets you see more of your content—starting with full-screen browsing. The new smart search field helps simplify searching, and there’s a new view for your bookmarks and your Safari tabs. With iCloud Keychain®, your passwords and credit card information are securely stored and available on all your devices, so navigating password protected sites or autofilling during transactions is simple and secure. Enhanced Parental Controls allow you to automatically block access to adult websites or only allow access to a specific set of permitted websites.
Siri sounds better than ever with new male and female voices and includes Twitter search integration, so you can ask Siri what people are saying on Twitter*. Siri also now has Wikipedia integration, providing access to the world’s most popular Internet reference site. Siri offers Bing web search within the app and the ability to change device settings and play back voicemail.
The Music app has a beautiful new design and includes the new iTunes Radio, a free Internet radio service featuring over 200 stations and an incredible catalog of music from the iTunes Store®, combined with features only iTunes can deliver. iTunes Radio is the best way to discover new music. When you tune into iTunes Radio on your iPhone, iPad, iPod touch, Mac®, PC or Apple TV®, you’ll have access to stations inspired by the music you already listen to, Featured Stations curated by Apple and genre-focused stations that are personalized just for you. iTunes Radio evolves based on the music you play and download. The more you use iTunes Radio and iTunes, the more it knows what you like to listen to and the more personalized your experience becomes. iTunes Radio also gives you access to exclusive “first listen” premieres from top selling artists, Siri integration plus the ability to buy anything you hear with just one tap.
With over 900,000 apps, the App Store℠ is the world’s largest app marketplace. iOS 7 now features Popular Apps Near Me, a new way to find apps based on your current location, and iOS 7 will automatically keep your apps up to date. The App Store also comes with a new Kids category, allowing teachers and parents to easily discover apps for children by age.
