Top Major Features in iPhone OS 4.0

I am really sorry its a late post but I hope you understand,because already iPhone OS 4.0 has bee released. And its said to be the best Mobile Platform of all time.So let  us see what are the features which makes iPhone OS 4.0 the best.Here this is a complete features guide with which you can easily compare the differences between the Older version and new version.This is considering as one of the biggest releases of Apple.


And also this features guide will give the each and every new features included in this revolutionary product,so learn the things about iPhone OS 4.0 and have a fantastic experience with it.

Multitasking  : 

iPhone 4.0′s multitasking system is incredibly simple and clean, and Apple says it won’t drain your iPhone’s battery-because the apps don’t run simultaneously at full power. Apple’s multitasking combines background processing and fast app switching, so you can, say, stream music from Pandora while checking e-mail.To see your open apps,you double-click the home button, and a dock showing all of your open apps appears at the bottom of the screen.

The other mobile platforms all have some kind of multitasking system, too. Android,Symbian, and WebOS use true multitasking. Windows Phone 7 has quick app switching and some background processing. Visually,I like the Leap feature in I-lTC’s Sense interface for Android, which lets you pinch to view seven thumbnail versions of your open pages; from there, you can go to any open app. I also love Palm Web OS’s attractive, easy-to-use deck-of cards multitasking system.

Customization  : 

iPhone 4.0 doesn’t support live widgets (a la Android or Symbian), nor does it offer a customizable homepage. But you can personalize the wallpaper to some extent, and folder support is excellent.You can organize your apps into folders by category by dragging and dropping them into one another. The iPhone will automatically assign a category name to them.

Notifications : 

Apple tweaked its notifications system, which l still find slightly disruptive, and which gives you no place to save or store notifications.Both Palm and Android have relatively unobtrusive notification systems that let you see older notifications.On the other hand, iPhone 4.0 will have “local notifications” that don’t rely on a third-party server.

Universal Inbox and Exchange Accounts  :

Apple finally adopted universal inbox support, so you can view your Exchange, Gmail, Yahoo, and other accounts in one seamless view. ‘The interface seems to be on a par with those used for Android, BlackBerry, and WebOS universal inboxes. iPhone 4.0 will also support multiple Exchange accounts.

Gaming   :  

Android and WebOS have recently added support for 3D graphics, but in this area the iPhone is still king. And with the new Game Center coming later this year, the iPhone will just get better. To keep pace, Windows Phone 7 will ship with a mobile version of Xbox Live support, offering similar features to Game Center.

Navigation and Maps  : 

Google Navigation is free and available to all Android phones, as is Ovi Maps for Nokia Symbian phones. And all Windows Phone 7 devices will come with Bing Maps. An iPhone Maps app may arrive later this year, but for now you have to use Google Maps or a third-party app.

Social Networking and Flash Support  : 

Aggregated social networking is a hot feature in phone OSs, particularly in Android flavors such as Motorola MotoBlur and HTC Sense, which list all activity on your social networks in a seamless, integrated view. Currently, iPhone 4.0 offers no social networking aggregator.Flash Player 10 is coming to all of the other mobile platforms, but Apple has no plans for Flash or java support on the iPhone.
