Siri on Norwegian
As we reported earlier this summer, Apple’s voice assistant Siri finally learned Norwegian in iOS 9. With Siri can thus control your iOS device with just your voice; open apps, dictate messages, enter appointments in the calendar, do searches online and so on.
To enable Norwegian Siri, go to Settings & gt; General & gt; Siri . Press and hold the home button to bring “her” in use.
New features in Pictures
USE THIS: You can browse your photo albums in this new image carousel, which displays a thumbnail preview the images that are in there.
Apple fotoapp, photos, comes with a few new features in iOS 9. One of them makes it easier to select multiple images simultaneously. Instead of having to choose one by one, you can just drag and hold your finger over the photos you want to mark.
To browse the photo album has also become easier. Just open an image, you will see an image carousel at the bottom that you can go back and forth. Once you have an image open, you can go out of it again by swiping it down on the screen.
In addition, you can also hide the images from an album (useful if someone borrows your phone); just select the photos you want to hide, press the share icon and choose Hide from the bottom Menu bar.
Finally, all pictures are taken with the front camera organized in a special album called “selfies”. (It’s all pictures, no face here yet.) Screenshots, ie pictures taken by holding down the power and home buttons simultaneously, has also been given its own album.
Latest first alerts
MORE EASY: With alerts sorted by most recent first makes it easier to see what you’ve been missed.
Missed some alerts on your iPhone? For those in the so-called notification center, as you get up, swipe down from the top of the screen.
In iOS 9, this also more transparent than before, when it becomes possible to group alerts by newest first, rather than that it is a manual list as you decide the order of.
Go to Settings & gt; Notifications & gt; Sort by and select Recent .
Unfortunately it is still not possible to delete all alerts at once, although you can delete every day.
Smarter search
WHAT WILL YOU DO? iOS 9 can learn who to contact and which apps you use during the day, giving you suggestions based on your usage patterns.
Siri has been proactive in iOS 9, which means that she can predict what you need before you even asks, just like Google Now or Microsoft Cortana.
The proactive features are dotted around the operating system, including in the Spotlight search. If you have activated something called Proposal from Siri, suggested apps, people, places and different when you open a search.
If you call your mom every day before dinner? Then Spotlight propose her as a contact. Do you have an appointment with a person in your contact list? This brings up this. Check Instagram every night before going to bed? Then Spotlight give you a quick way there. Or email if you check it in the morning.
From the Settings & gt; General & gt; Spotlight Search and turn the Proposal from Siri .
Alerts when you have to travel, know what you want to hear
NEVER FORGET AN AGREEMENT AGAIN: iOS 9 notifies you when you have to go, often with little extra wide margin – at least it is our experience.
iOS 9 is also proactive in the way it can remind you that now you have to go if you want an appointment you have in your calendar. It assumes that you have entered the place (address) of the agreement.
The proactive Assistant can also suggest music for you. Only you plug in the headphones, it will treat you with suggestions of what to listen to and playback controls right on the lock screen, so it’s just pressing Play. What kind of music suggested, depends on what you have heard previously at the same time and place.
I hear generally to podcasts on their way to and from work, and getting resistant up the last podcast I played when I walk out the door at home and at the office so I can easily resume playing again.
The same works if you connect your iOS device via Bluetooth in the car.
Longer battery life with “Saving Flushed mode”
charge is low? Finally also iPhone got a power saving feature.
Apple promises better battery life with iOS 9, partly because the screen is not lit up by the incoming alert if a unit is face down . Should it really pinch, you can also adopt a new energy-saving feature, called “back burner mode”.
When the power level drops below 20 percent, you are asked whether you want to activate the mode, which will save power by including reducing some visual effects and turn the retrieval of email, background update apps and automatic downloads.
You can turn it on manually by going to the Settings & gt; Battery & gt; Save Flushed mode .
Character notes
Along with the new 12.9-inch iPad, iPad Pro, Apple launched also a pen, called Apple Pencil.
The pen can be used to draw notes in the updated Notes app for iOS 9, that have received a drawing tool, which lets you add sketches to your notes, much like Microsoft OneNoe. It works with just your fingers too, of course.
Open Notes, create a new note and press krussedull icon on the toolbar to go into drawing mode.
Drafts Apple notatapp get character possibilities.
Return to the previous app faster
FASTER RETURN: Look for this button when you open a link or alert while in another app.
iOS 9 comes with a handful of new features related to multitasking, ie multitasking.
In addition to that Apple has redesigned the app-switcher, the “carousel” you get up when you double-tap the home button, they have also introduced a “Back to” button that appears in the upper left corner of the screen if you open such a link or a notice into a new app, allowing you quicker return to the application you just used.
Only iPad two apps side by side
Some of the new multitasking features are exclusive to iPad. For example, you can swipe from the right edge of the screen to bring up the New Slide Over feature, which allows you to open an additional app in a narrow column (works only on iPad Air, iPad Air 2, iPad Pro, iPad mini 2 , iPad mini 3 or iPad mini 4)
FIRMLY multitasking: Did you iPad, you can now run two apps side by side.
Have you iPad Pro or iPad Air 2, you can take the extra window towards the center to enter the Split View Display, where you have two apps running side by side.
Only iPad: Easier text editing
iPad keyboard also get some new features should make it possible to write more effectively, including a new toolbar with shortcuts to cut, copy and paste, text formatting, attachments and so on.
Placing two fingers on the keyboard, you transform it into a trackpad where you can easily select text, move the cursor and the kind.
SHORTCUT LINE: iPad keyboard has a new shortcut line with shortcuts to text editing and the like. Third-party developers can customize this as you wish.
