2.1 Update: A Feature No One Mentioned!
November 27, 2008
Yes, I was too lazy to flip the image around...
iPhone updates come and go, and every added feature is detailed as thoroughly as can be, leaving no features undiscovered. Today, finally having the time to update to 2.2 (I’ve been really busy this week… sorry for the lack of posts), I discovered one small UI improvement to iPhone OS, and that’s the update progress. Before, the Apple logo would stay on the screen flashing on and off with no indication of how much time remained. Now, Apple has added a progress bar to inform you just how far you are through the update. The geniuses at Cupertino have worked their magic once again!
What’s that you say? Who cares? What’s the point of this useless blog post? Can’t you think of anything better to write? To all those I answer no. No one cares. There is no point. And no, I can’t think of anything better to write. Sure I could write about Black Friday sales, or wish everyone a happy thanksgiving like every other mac blog on the planet, but I feel that the 2.1 inclusion of a progress bar to track your updating status is much more important!
No Thanksgiving post is complete without a picture of a Turkey...
Another new feature that I don’t think that anyone refer to, is that when you update an app, this new app, appears where the old one was rather than actually download the updated, and after it finish the progress delete the old one, something that used to happen in 2.1 and was very frustrating if you had your apps in a specific order, destroying everything.
