Apple officially released iOS 7, and declared it to come with “Biggest Change Since the Original iPhone”.
By checking what’s new in iOS 7, we could easily get the right point of iOS 7,
like the multitasking preview, Control Center, AireDrop, etc. iOS 7 is creating a great buzz for it in the gadgets’ world as the redesigning of the OS has not only excited the Apple users, but the competitors of the operating system too are feeling the threat. These changes are
more cosmetic and iterative than they are groundbreaking.
While some say that iOS is an explicit copy of Windows Phone OS as well as from Android’s Jellybean OS, it has become tough for Apple to give out clarification. With Google keenly looking at the iOS 7, it seems like the next version of Android will surely be different from what we saw till now.
Rumors are doing the rounds that the next version of Android will also be supporting the low end devices. In recent Android OS version, Jellybean 4.1 – 4.2.2 didn’t see many changes in terms of UI /UX and almost looked same.
Below, you'll find a list of the iOS 7 features that Apple focused on today, and next to that, a brief description of how that trait exists on Android, Windows Phone, and BlackBerry rivals (or at least one manufacturer's take on said platform). Read on below for more detail about how iOS 7 stacks up.
Apple may not have bowled us over with headline
enhancements, but iOS 7 will continue to formidably challenge Google,
Microsoft, and BlackBerry with its eye-catching visual design and its total
haul of features, new and old. Like many things worth admiring, iOS 7 is
greater than the sum of its parts.

Actually, there's a lot in iOS 7 that we've seen before in
other mobile platforms, in similar if not identical forms. There's absolutely
nothing wrong with that so long as Apple executes well and brings value to the
user. The difference is that Apple's most advertised iOS 7 software additions
either play catch-up or are relatively minor, like a way to filter apps for
kids or surface camera settings in the app's top layer.
Apple does push the industry forward with some capabilities
that are all its own -- like iOS 7 for
cars and using Siri to toggle system
settings. (Samsung's S Voice does the latter, but not Android Voice
Actions.) Even with driving modes for individual handsets, such deep car
integration will be tough for the others to beat and even match without strong
automotive partnerships.
iTunes Radio may
not be a new concept, but I like that it's free for everyone, and integrated
into a native app that people already use. Google
Play Music All Access does about the same, but costs $10 per month, and
Nokia Music is free, but only on Nokia's Windows phones.
Once again, Apple's advantage is that iOS 7 will be unified
across most Apple smartphones and tablets, unlike Android, which varies greatly
by phone-maker and has a notorious track record for timely updates across
devices. Even Windows Phone has two flavors; that profits Nokia, the originator
of most extra features, but also makes Windows Phone's benefits uneven across
the entire portfolio.
