Some iPhone OS 4.0 Features Leak Out, Multi-Tasking, New UI, Multi-Touch Everywhere

Posted by Unknown Labels: , , ,


Boy Genius has seemed to pick up the scoop on what the iPhone OS 4.0 will be bringing to the table. The full list is below.


  • There will be multi-touch gestures OS-wide. (Would make sense for that as the rumored OS for the iTablet is close if not the same as the iPhone)
  • “A few new ways” to run applications in the background — multitasking.
  • Many graphical and UI changes to make navigating through the OS easier and more efficient. We haven’t had this broken down, but we can only hope for improved notifications, a refreshed homescreen, etc.
  • The update will supposedly be available for only the iPhone 3G and 3GS, but will “put them ahead in the smartphone market because it will make them more like full-fledged computers” more than any other phone to date. Everyone is “really excited.”
  • The last piece of information is the most vague, but apparently there will be some brand new syncing ability for the contacts and calendar applications.


Wow! Finally the iPhone will be getting some kind of multi-tasking which is great news. The multi-touch gestures also make sense as well seeing as we'll likely see this in the tablet as well. We don't know what the new UI will look like, but let's hope that it's as good as we hope it'll be. The bad news is that the iPhone 3G and 3GS will be the only devices getting it. Wednesday January 27th, be there!
