Hi Friends! iOS users will be prompted to update their devices to the newest iteration of Apple's mobile operating system. As difficult as it is to believe, we're already onto the sixth version of the OS, which continues to be updated with new features on a yearly basis. After pushing out so many upgrades critical to plugging a few major feature holes, the vast majority of its 200 advertised enhancements are strictly granular, as Apple continues to polish its popular OS.That doesn't mean, though, that this build is coming to the masses without any jarring UI changes: Apple has declared independence from Google by adopting its own Maps, added a few nice features to Mail and iCloud, thrown Facebook integration into the mix and introduced the Passbook for paperless tickets. The question is, how does it stack up against previous refreshes? Read on to find out.
Apple may be looking for ways to make unlocking the iPhone even easier.The company recently filed for a patent with the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) that would sense a user's location and adjust security levels accordingly. device is on the owner's home network or a frequently visited location (like your office), the iPhone could bypass the typical PIN security code or fingerprint scan and keep the phone unlocked."Because some locations may be inherently more secure, such as a user's home or office, these locations may be considered 'safe' and require less stringent security," the patent filing reads. "It can be desirable to have decreased security requirements when the mobile device is at a secure location."On the other side, if a user enters certain "unsecure" areas, security protections could be increased beyond just the passcode"In these locations, it can be desirable to implement stronger security protections. When the mobile device is in an unwww.techdebute.comsecure location (e.g., public location such as cafes or shopping centers), security requirements can be increased," the filing reads.
While in heightened security areas, users would likely have to enter a PIN code as well as use Apple's TouchID technology its high-tech fingerprint sensor that debuted in fall 2013.Although the company filed for a "location-sensitive security levels" patent back in December 2012, and was granted the patent last week, it's uncertain whether or not this type of technology will ever make its way into an upcoming iPhone.
