iOS 7 Launch Offers At Least  Reasons to Upgrade


Apple's iOS 7 is slated for launch on Sept. 18, and according to the company's chief executive, Tim Cook, it will be the most downloaded mobile operating system ever released. It's a sure thing that iOS 7 will turn out to be more popular than its predecessor, iOS 6, and could easily eclipse the download figures attained by its chief counterpart, Android. Apple's iOS 7, in other words, promises to be a hit. But just because the majority of iOS users might choose to download Apple's new operating system, not everyone will be so quick to do so at launch. From the corporate world to consumers, quite a few people are on the fence over whether they should download Apple's latest mobile operating system or stick with iOS 6. For those folks, the answer should be clear: Download iOS 7 and be done with it. Apple's latest mobile operating system looks to be the best version the company has launched yet, and its redesign alone could make it a winner among new adopters.


 Price
Who can argue with the iOS 7 price? To download the update, users need only to have enough charge in their iPhone or iPad and start the download. Unlike OS X, which Apple charges for, the company offers up its mobile operating system at no charge. In other words, there's no major barrier to getting iOS 7 and trying it out. 



It Comes With Enhanced Security

Apple has announced publicly that its operating system comes with several security enhancements. The company, however, didn't say exactly what they are. Still, it's important to note that Apple's iOS 7 addresses some of the security issues found in previous versions of the software and should make things at least a little harder for hackers to capitalize on unsuspecting users

The Redesign Is Stellar

Apple's redesign for iOS is simply stellar. Led by Jonathan Ive, the company's lead designer, the operating system's redesign has delivered a new look and feel to a software platform that was getting more than a little boring. The operating system has a new life with its redesign and makes everything work just a bit better. It's a win-win.



The Control Center Is Nice

Apple has added a new feature, called Control Center, that's designed to put all of the important functions in close proximity to what a person needs. So, if they want to change the device's volume, change a song or access their settings quickly, it's all possible with Control Center. It's a great addition to the operating system.








Better Siri

Apple's Siri has also been improved in iOS 7 with the option to choose voices. In addition, the platform is a bit smarter than in previous versions, and can more adeptly respond to queries and provide accurate answers. Coupled with the iPhone 5S, the new and improved Siri might just be the best update yet.
