iPhone Firmware 2.2 Features: Map Street View, Emoji Icons, Disable Auto-correction, Possibly Copy/Paste

August 23rd, 2009 Amit No comments

Lots of gossip is going new features on the forth coming iPhone 2.2 upgrade. Will it have some new features or a bug fix patch just like 2.1 upgrade?

Apple has not officially announced any new feature in the release notes sent to the developers who are doing compatibility testing of their applications with 2.2 upgrade.

Developers have found out following new features:
1. Disable/Enable auto-correction: iPhone users will be able to turn on/off auto-correction.

There is no doubt about the iPhone keyboard capability and its auto-correction feature but this feature is frustrating on many occasions when you want to type in local language (e.g. u r an ifone lvr).

2. Google Map Street View: Last week, google announced street view supoort in G1 Mobile Phone. iPhone also came up with the same idea. Let’s see who is in quantity in streets for the street view.

3. Japanese emoji icon: emoji icons are one the important feature in Japanese mobile phones. Including emoji icons might help in increasing sales in Japanese market.

4. Copy/Paste functionality: As discussed in one of the earlier post, it is quite possible that next upgrade will have copy/paste functionality. G1 phone is about to hit the market soon and it has copy/paste functionality in it. This might put some extra pressure to Apple to include Copy/Paste as soon as possible.

iPhone Browser

August 23rd, 2009 admin No comments

iPhone browser let you browse file in window explorer fashion. You can download iPhone browser from here

iphone_browser

By using iPhone browser, you can take back up of files and folders from your iPhone to computer. The backup you take by this browser is not very user friendly. It simply dumps iPhone files without doing any changes. It might not be very useful to use such backups in your computer but it does help a lot when you want to restore these files to iPhone. To restore these files simple drag and drop files to appropriate location in iPhone browser.
