A smarter Siri (Yes, really)
更智能的Siri(真的)
On top of pulling up restaurant and movie information, sports scores, and search results, now Apple's (AAPL, Fortune 500) virtual voice-recognition assistant can also comb through users' Twitter streams to show what a friend is saying or say, turn on the iPhone's flashlight feature. Even better: If Siri mispronounces a name, the user may say, "That's not how you pronounce [insert name]." Siri then offers up several different ways to say it, and once you choose one, Siri will save and pronounce the name that way moving forward.
除了读出餐厅和电影信息、球赛比分和搜索结果之外,如今苹果的虚拟语音识别助手还能梳理用户在Twitter上的信息流,告诉用户,好友们更新了什么;或者打开iPhone的手电筒功能。更了不起的一点是:如果Siri发音错误,用户可以说:“不应该这样读(XX的名字)。”然后Siri就会提供几种不同的读法,并记住你选择的那种,之后都采用这种方式来读这个名字。
Contact blocking
屏蔽不受欢迎的联系人
Finally, iOS users may shut out unwanted texts, phone calls, or FaceTime requests by opening the contact info of someone they want to block and tapping a button. Pesky telemarketers and obnoxious exes: Your days are numbered.
终于,iOS用户可以打开某人的联系方式,按下按钮将其屏蔽,从而阻止一切不受欢迎的短消息、电话和视频邀请了。讨厌的电话推销员和喋喋不休的前任恋人们,你们的末日要到了。
That new Camera app
全新的相机应用
Sure, the new Camera app offers niceties like Instagram-like filters and a square photo format. But users who love snapping numerous shots in succession will quickly appreciate the redesigned Camera app, which sports a lag-free shutter.
没错儿,这款全新的相机应用提供了类似Instagram的小功能——比如滤镜和相片集。喜欢连拍的用户会很快喜欢上这款相机应用的,它拥有零延迟的快门。
Automatic updates
强大的自动更新功能
With hundreds of thousands of apps to choose from, the iOS ecosystem is flush with software options. But updating those apps once they've been downloaded has always been a manual affair. Now, users can having their apps automatically updated in the background as updates are released.
iOS系统有着几百万应用软件可供选择,令人目不暇接。但是已经下载过的应用一直需要手动更新。如今,有了应用更新这个功能,用户就可以让它们在后台自动升级了。
Organized photos
照片排序井井有条
No more scrolling through countless photos to find what you're looking for. Apple now automatically groups shots based on time and place.
再也不需要滑动手指在无尽的照片中寻找你要的那一张了。苹果如今会自动根据拍摄时间和地点对照片进行分类。
No limit on voice memo file size when sharing
自由分享语音文件
One personal pet peeve I've always had with voice memos was the inability to wirelessly share large files. (They forced you to select smaller chunks of audio to send instead.) Thankfully for journalists like me, that's no longer the case.
一直以来,我对语音备忘录都有一点不满,即它不能无线共享大文件。(他们强迫人们发送一段一段零碎的短小音频来代替。)这个问题目前已经解决,对像我这样的记者来说,真值得庆幸。
Airdrop
Airdrop轻松传输文件
Depending on how you interact with your phone, this little feature could change the way you share files between friends and family. Using both Bluetooth and Wi-Fi, users can securely swap photos, videos, emails, and other files if they're near one another. No more awkward emails with colossal attachments.
根据你使用手机的方式,这个小功能可以改变你在朋友间和家里分享文件的途径。用户只要靠得够近,就可以使用蓝牙和Wi-Fi安全地交换照片、视频、电子邮件和其他文件。再也不用尴尬地通过邮箱发送巨大的附件了。
The new flatter look
美丽新界面
We can't say it enough: iOS7's cleaner look takes everything old and makes them seem new again. Flat text bubbles rise and fall based on their own special brand of virtual gravity. Even returning to the home screen is a visual pleasure thanks to different animated transitions.
这点一言难尽:iOS7的简洁界面带走了一切陈旧设计,让它们看起来焕然一新。根据重力感应,扁平的消息气泡会上升和下降。生动而多样的过渡效果使得按下桌面按钮回到桌面都是一种视觉上的享受。
A minimalist Safari
简约的Safari浏览器
For a palm-sized display, every inch counts. With that in mind, Apple's latest Safari browser update features a more minimal appearance: Scroll up and down, and both the URL bar and virtual buttons at the bottom disappear allowing more of the web page to show.
手机屏幕只有手掌大小,每寸必争。秉持这个理念,苹果最近更新的Safari浏览器有着更简约的外观:上方的网址栏和下方的按钮都需通过滑动来显示,让屏幕显示网页的区域变得更大。
Better multitasking
更强大的多任务模式
When Apple finally introduced multitasking to iOS, it was limited to swiping through a row of app icons at the bottom of the screen. Now double-tapping the home button brings up a flow of miniaturized app screens making it easier to figure out what you were doing in each one.
苹果最后终于在iOS采用多任务模式时,最初也仅限于滑动屏幕底端的一排应用图标。如今,双击Home图标会显示一列最小化的的应用缩略图,让你更容易找到对每一项任务做些什么。
Control center
控制中心一站式服务
Think of this as a one-stop shortcut hub for users to do things like change song tracks, share files via Airdrop, snap photos, and turn on that flashlight feature. Not mindblowing, but helpful, nonetheless.
我们不妨把它其看作一站式的捷径,让用户能够更换歌曲、通过Airdrop分享文件、照片和打开手电筒。虽然这项功能不足以令人兴奋,但还是非常实用的。
