Apple iOS 5 review: You've been notified

12 October 2011
The iOS 5 is no news anymore. It was announced back in June at the WWDC along with the iCloud service. Apple has fulfilled its promise for a fall release and iOS 5 is finally seeding to all compatible iDevices around the globe...

I got one..."...very principles of organization of the closed iOS eco-system" Eco-system a.k.a. hey iPhone owners, you're not really the user of the phone because we will tell you how to use your phone. You guys are just there so we can squeeze money outta ya....oh, don't forget to buy everything Apple or else you don't really need this phone.

    What is that app that lets you transfer files via bluetooth? No jailbreak.

      the still missing list, it's not that hard to accomplish that, why does apple keep on making its users wait, giving them other features!

        "The content will become available on all of yours iDevices automagically."

        This is funny. It almost looks as though you misspelled the last word on purpose. Hahahaha.. Love iOS 5!

          Is there a file transfer (mass storage mode) available finally? If not then why isn't it noted in "still missing"?

                  well, its still an iOS. Same thing for 5 years. Wants to be all and ends up average on everything.

                    What a hopeless OS - No Flash support, No Heptic feedback and not even proper codec support for playing Vids - What kind of idiot will fall into this trap ?

                        •App folders still are limited to 12 apps tops

                        There's good reason for this, it's made thatway to see apps with one glance and no need for browsing apps to find what you needed. I don't think thats never going to chance.

                          "You can restore your iGadget from iCloud, but first you need to connect it through iTunes, perform a standard restore procedure (downloading and reinstalling the iOS) and then chose the iCloud restore option." I don t understand so is my igadget completetely free from my computer or not??

                            Mass storage mode and USB-on-the-GO, if not then iOS is not very userfriendly at all?!

                                        Nice overloaded list of (non) features where small changes (Music icon) get a bullet in the list.
