It’s too obvious: 5 features iOS 8 copied from Android
|
The discussion about iOS and Android borrowing from each other or even "copying" each other has never stopped, and every time the two sides launch a new system version, this topic is inevitably brought up again. Obviously, iOS and Android have always had a deep relationship (Android founder Andy Rubin was once an Apple employee), and in a relatively mature computer era, the interface design of the operating system also has some fixed standards, which can be simply said as "everything changes but never deviates from the original". Therefore, we can also see some features and concepts that Android has already had. Here are the five most obvious ones: "Hey, Siri" Obviously, the voice wake-up function of Siri comes from "OK, Google", which is an active voice function integrated in MOTO X and other Android 4.4 phones, which can wake up the Google Now application through sound. Now, as long as you turn on voice activation in the settings of iOS 8 and connect the device to a power source, you can voice wake up Siri. Although it has some limitations, it is still more convenient than holding down the Home button. Actionable notifications In Android 4.1, users can already reply to emails, social network and other information directly from the notification center without having to enter the corresponding program. iOS 8 now also has this function. It allows users to directly reply to messages or operate items such as calendars and reminders without having to use the app itself. New application testing mechanism On Android, developers can create a social page in the PlayStore to invite users to test apps and games and submit feedback. Now, iOS 8 has also added more testing mechanisms, allowing developers to send test versions to users. In addition, the AppStore can now embed application trial videos, a feature that Android has long had. iCloud Drive Apple has realized that the iCloud cloud service is not yet complete, so it launched iCloud Drive, which is equivalent to a network disk, which can easily exchange data between iOS and OS X or even Windows systems. But in fact, network disks such as Google Drive and Dropbox have already achieved similar functions. Support for third-party keyboard applications Android's openness is an advantage. The rich third-party input method allows users to freely choose the input form that suits them best, which is also a feature that iOS does not have. Finally, Apple has opened up third-party keyboard support for iOS 8. Soon we will no longer have to jailbreak to install mainstream Chinese input methods such as Sogou and QQ. As a winner of Toutiao's Qingyun Plan and Baijiahao's Bai+ Plan, the 2019 Baidu Digital Author of the Year, the Baijiahao's Most Popular Author in the Technology Field, the 2019 Sogou Technology and Culture Author, and the 2021 Baijiahao Quarterly Influential Creator, he has won many awards, including the 2013 Sohu Best Industry Media Person, the 2015 China New Media Entrepreneurship Competition Beijing Third Place, the 2015 Guangmang Experience Award, the 2015 China New Media Entrepreneurship Competition Finals Third Place, and the 2018 Baidu Dynamic Annual Powerful Celebrity. |
