Top 5 iOS 5 Features

As we all know it has been more than 2 weeks since iOS 5 GM was seeded to the general public. So, after using it for 2 weeks here is the list of top 10 iOS features.

1) iCloud -Certainly this is the feature I believe is the best because I have multiple iDevices so syncing these devices becomes a hassle. Thanks to iCloud I click a picture omy iPad and it shows up on my iPad 2 thanks to photostream. Same goes for my contacts and applications.

2) Wi-Fi Sync -Although jailbreakers have been using this feature for a while this was the first time it was released to non jailbroken users. What it does? Well it's simple. Whenever you plug in your iDevice into a charger it sync with iTunes. So you are cable free.

3) Tabbed Browsing -Tabbed browsing on the iPad is a breeze to use. Thanks to it now browsing has become more easy and quicker. Now I don't have to open a seprate window to see the tabs and then go to the web page instead now I can just flick through the tabs just like we do in a PC/MAC browser.

4) Notification Centre -We all were annoyed by the blue pop up notifications but thankfully in iOS 5 Apple made a whole new way to handle notifications. Now whenever a new notification comes now it's just a subtle animation on the top instead of the ugly blue box and does not interrupt what you are doing. The experience in the lock screen is also better. All the notifications are arranged one under the other and you can just swipe across the application icon and it will directly send you to the app that sent you that notification. Then we have the notification centre which shows all your notifications in one place and can be opened anywhere by just swiping on the top of the screen.

5) Multitask Gestures -Multitask gestures on the iPad are amazing. They take multitasking to the next level. Android can not even think of something like this. You just swipe or pinch and you are multitasking.

This was a list of my personal top 5 iOS features. But yours can be different as there over 200+ features. Let us know what do you like the most about iOS 5 in the comments below.
