Apple, Inc.'s upcoming iOS 9 is reportedly going to focus on the device's stability and optimization, says 9to5Mac. Although this could mean that its most distinct features may be directed at the prevention of bugs, it does not immediately mean that Apple users should not expect a few new things in the next version.
The International Business Times reported that even though the mega tech company has not made an official announcement regarding the iOS 9 yet, they still provided the public a few hints to speculate about. According to the report, Apple has been working on some patents they filed at the US Patent and Trademark Office.
The Fuse Joplin says that a lot of today's Apple users have become quite skeptical with the company's decision to switch from focusing on functionality to pay more attention to stability. This decision comes with such a high risk, which may cause the "flawless" iOS 9 to fail in the long run.
It was only last September when Apple users became enraged with the technical glitches brought about by the iOS 8. Apple's user support forums were flooded with complaints about the update, which pushed the company to send an updated version the very next day, version 8.1, to placate the angry customers. Sadly, and embarrassingly, they had to retract on the said "update" since it only caused more problems, according to Top Tech News.
Once a bug or hack enters into what was claimed to be an impenetrable gadget, many will gladly ditch the iOS and transfer to Android. After all, Android smartphones have more features compatible with a huge amount of applications, according to the report. If Apple does not come up with something new and interesting for the iOS 9, they might end up losing even more of their users.
The iOS9, which has been codenamed "Monarch," according to a separate 9to5Mac report, will be featuring some under-the-hood improvements. Moreover, the company is reportedly working hard to keep the size of the new OS as well as its accompanying updates easily manageable, especially for those who use 16 GB versions.
It has also been reported in another 9to5Mac article that Apple has actually been working on Transit and Indoor Mapping Modes. Rumor has it that these new features will be added to the list of iOS 9 features. Everything will most likely become clearer when this year's WWDC, or Worldwide Developers Conference, begins.
