iOS 8 Beta 4 Hands-On - Check Out All the New Updates!

2014-07-21
what's going on guys I'm märklin sanger technobuffalo and today we'll be taking a look at iOS 8 beta for Apple just releases today to developers and we're here to show you something to the new features that was added into iOS 8 beta for first thing we have is a tips app this is the new app that's now included in iOS 8 so you can't really delete it basically what it does is that it gives users tips on how to use iOS 8 on a weekly basis so every week you get new tips from the app on how to use iOS 8 and as of now they'll give you tips on quick notifications sending voice messages using notifications for mail responses activating Siri hands-free and more the second thing is a control center control center is a redesigned look that removes the black borders are on the icons on top and the bottom and it reminds me a lot of Yosemite which gives it a nice implicit flat modern look and if we go to the messages app the Texas type option and messages now display spoken text in real time rather than waiting for the entire message to be completed before displaying the text so let's give that a try hey Ralph what's going on ? so that's a really nice feature to have it's very similar to what series doing now in iOS 8 and another minor UI changes that the emoji keyboard icon has been updated with a much happier smiley face rather than the globe icon and when we first tried is a beta there was always a notification up at the top for you to tap the report any type of bug and you can't really swipe it away which was really annoying I'm glad this iOS 8 beta that's no longer present the rest of the new features lie beneath the Settings app so in the Settings app you have a new option for display settings and this allows the user to change the brightness change the text size and activate bold text if we go back we can go to messages you can now choose how long the voice and video messages are kept you can choose to keep forever or for its expire out to two minutes because obviously that takes up a lot of storage in your device and if you want to delete it you have that option to do so if we go back to the general settings we have an option for handoff and suggested apps basically it allows you to toggle on and off the hand off feature which allows you to seamlessly continue your work or conversation on your Mac running OS 10 Yosemite and the suggested apps are the ones that were your new your business an app icon will show up on your lock screen and you can launch the app right from your lock screen so you have that option to turn on or off and if we go back we can go to mail contacts and calendars there's a new option to toggle favorites in recent acts with an app switcher so if you turn it off you get the old iOS 7 look but I'm really starting to like this feature so I'm going to keep it on we also have a new option for mail swipe actions you can choose from what actions you'd want to display within a mail app so you can change the swipe left action and swipe right action and that's about it for this quick iOS 8 beta for video if you guys have any questions make sure to leave it down below and as always I'll see you guys in the next video thank you guys for watching if you like what you saw please subscribe they'll be the first ones to know when new videos come up we have a ton of stuff we do unboxing to do hands on reviews cars and everything in between the Nets do consumer electronics we love to have you stick around
