apples are usually in season in September which is maybe why Apple the
tech company has made September releases of new versions of iOS a bit of a
tradition over the last few years and things were no different this year with
the release of iOS 10 alongside the new
iPhone 7 which you can learn more about here but with iOS 10 supporting iPhone
and iPad models all the way back to the iPhone 5 and the four gen iPad from 2012
you don't have to Shell out tons of new money on a brand new phone to get it but
is it worth getting excited over anyway well let's start with the way you get
into your phone in the first place gone are the days of slide to unlock as now
you either have to press the home button or on iPhone 6s and newer just lift the
phone up to wake the screen which could be useful if your arms are full and it
would be difficult to try to manipulate the phone itself once you're in you
might find it a little easier to customize what's on your home screen I
mean they still don't allow you to place app icons wherever you want for some
reason but they finally introduced the ability to hide some of the preloaded
stuff you never use though you still can't uninstall them completely to save
space on your phone a little Annoying if you're trying to remove Garage Band
iBooks or the stocks app because your portfolio consists of 10 bucks and some
oddly colored pocket lint but one thing you probably will be using a fair amount
is the messages app which not only can animate your own handwriting for a
personal touch but can now also show video and image previews from a number
of different apps it can Auto suggest in different languages if you routinely
type in multiple languages and it can convert words to emoji on the Fly you
can even make your outgoing messages stay obscured on your recipient screen
until they manually swipe them if you're sending a uh private
message now let's talk notifications you
no longer have to leave the home screen to interact with your notifications many
of them now support 3D touch interactions and you can now directly
reply to text messages without having to open a new window or even unlock your
phone then and this is cool once you're done you can get rid of all your
notifications at once if you have a 3D touch enabled device a welcome addition
for longtime iOS users who know the pain of manually scrolling through ancient
SMS messages to mark them all as red moving on to actually using apps here
you'll find some more useful enhancements the default phone app can
now transcribe your voicemails without a thirdparty service hey boss it's John um
listen we're going to need an order of about 10,000 hula hoops if you don't
have time to listen to them and can also check incoming calls against a registry
of known spammers so you'll know if that
uh ring is really someone trying to steal your credit card number in
exchange for a fake cation but it isn't
just the default apps that offer more functionality perhaps even more
importantly iOS 10 offers more robust
support for certain features of the hardware in thirdparty apps 3D touch now
supports more applications and you can now shoot high resolution images in raw
format in supported apps if you'd like to work with them later in your favorite
image editing program on your computer Siri also plays more nicely with
non-apple programs you can tell her to call you a ride through Uber or get her
to interact with your fitness app because you're just too tired after all
those uh bench presses to lift up your phone and speaking of going to the gym
iOS 10 has built-in water detection for
iPhone 6s and later to warn you if you
need to let your phone dry out perfect even if you didn't go to the gym and you
just like keeping your iPhone dangerously close to your big gulp no
word yet though on whether any updates will automatically get Siri to shame you
for being too sedentary speaking of shame it would be
a shame if you went to build yourself a awesome website and you didn't use
Squarespace to save yourself a bunch of freaking time and end up with what will
probably be better looking in the end anyway Squarespace has beautiful
templates that look great across any device whether it's a computer or your
shiny new iOS 10 iPhone 7 whatever the
case may be and they make it easy it's
all cloud-based so you pretty much whether you don't know anything about
websites or whether you do know a little bit you go in you kind of go Page by
