Our iOS 9 preview runs the rule over iOS 9's new features and design changes from iOS 8, helps you decide whether you should update your iPad or iPhone to iOS 9 (and whether you can update on your Apple device), and considers the ways in which iOS 9 will change the way we interact with our Apple devices.<img src="http://cdn2.macworld.co.uk/cmsdata/reviews/3613323/iOS_9_launch_1000.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" />iOS 9 preview: Visual design & interfaceMost of the time, the look of iOS evolves at a glacial pace: there has been just one really radical visual overhaul in the past eight versions. (This was the controversial redesign of <a href="http://www.macworld.co.uk/review/ios-apps/apple-ios-7-review-iphone-ipad-update-3452001/" target="_blank">iOS 7</a> that annoyed quite a lot of users, although most of us have grown used to it by now.) <img src="http://cdn2.macworld.co.uk/cmsdata/reviews/3613323/iOS_8_vs_iOS_7_800.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" />iOS 8 (left) and iOS 7: very similar visual designsWe therefore expected iOS 9 to look pretty much the same as <a href="http://www.macworld.co.uk/review/ios-apps/ios-8-review-hands-on-iphone-ipad-3516694/" target="_blank">iOS 8</a>, which in turn looked pretty much like iOS 7. Users spend such a large amount of time interacting with their smartphone's interface that major change is upsetting. Sure enough, the interface is largely the same - with just a few small but significant differences.Let's start with the system font, which has been changed throughout iOS from Helvetica to a custom typeface called San Francisco.<img src="http://cdn2.macworld.co.uk/cmsdata/reviews/3613323/iOS_9_launch_iOS_8_font_comparison_1600.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" />Again, iOS 8 is on the left. iOS 9 gives the text more room to breathe - it's a more modern look, in our view. But it's a tiny change in comparison with iOS 7's scorched-earth redesign. <img src="http://cdn2.macworld.co.uk/cmsdata/reviews/3613323/ios-9-wallpaper.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" />iOS 8 on the left vs iOS 9 on the rightiOS 9 new features: Proactive<img src="http://cdn2.macworld.co.uk/cmsdata/reviews/3613323/iOS_9_Proactive_1000a.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /><img src="http://cdn2.macworld.co.uk/cmsdata/reviews/3613323/iOS_9_tips_01_Proactive_640.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" />iOS 9 new features: Multitasking<img src="http://cdn2.macworld.co.uk/cmsdata/reviews/3613323/iOS_9_new_features_multitasking_1000d.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" />iOS 9's multitasking feature, at its most basic, essentially lets you view two apps at once, side by side. One occupies about a third of the screen, sliced vertically off the righthand side. This is called Slide Over.<img src="http://cdn2.macworld.co.uk/cmsdata/reviews/3613323/iOS_9_new_features_multitasking_1000g.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /><img src="http://cdn2.macworld.co.uk/cmsdata/reviews/3613323/iOS_9_new_features_multitasking_1000b.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" />iOS 9 new features: News<img src="http://cdn2.macworld.co.uk/cmsdata/reviews/3613323/iOS_9_new_features_News_1000a.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /><img src="http://cdn2.macworld.co.uk/cmsdata/reviews/3613323/iOS_9_new_features_News_1000b.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" />iOS 9 new features: Public-transport directions, and other changes to Maps<img src="http://cdn2.macworld.co.uk/cmsdata/reviews/3613323/iOS_9_new_features_Maps_public_transport_1000.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" />iOS 9 new features: NotesNext up is Notes, that most neglected and basic of preinstalled productivity apps - yet, thanks to the updates in iOS 9, Apple may yet convince you to use Notes for more than just shopping lists. <img src="http://cdn2.macworld.co.uk/cmsdata/reviews/3613323/iOS_9_new_features_Notes_1000b.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" />iOS 9 new features: Keyboard enhancementsLet's begin with those shortcut buttons. In most apps, the system keyboard offers one-tap cut, copy and paste; in other apps you also get formatting options, attachments and similar. It's a handy use of what was effectively dead space either side of the QuickType suggestion box (although these are squeezed in slightly). The second change affects the Shift key, which now avoids confusion by changing the look of every letter key when toggled on and off. (In previous versions, users complained that they weren't sure if Shift was on or not, since it just toggled between the colour of the other letter keys and the colour of the special keys.) <img src="http://cdn2.macworld.co.uk/cmsdata/reviews/3613323/iOS_9_new_features_Shift_key_1000.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" />One last change to the keyboard: tap and hold anywhere on the screen with two fingers at the same time, and the keys will grey out - you've now got control of a 'cursor' for highlighting text: <img src="http://cdn2.macworld.co.uk/cmsdata/reviews/3613323/iOS_9_new_features_Notes_1000a.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" />iOS 9 new features: Battery life enhancementsThe last item on our list of new features in iOS 9 is by no means an afterthought. It concerns battery life, which is something that every iPhone user has worried about at one time or another. iOS 9, Apple says, is more streamlined and power-efficient than iOS 8 - so much more streamlined and efficient, in fact, that an iPhone 6 running iOS 9 will have an extra hour of battery life. That's an impressive and pleasing boost, although we'll obviously need to test this out once the final build is released. Although we must admit that even when using the un-optimised iOS 9 beta on an iPhone 6 Plus, we experienced better all-round battery life than when using iOS 8. And the power-efficiency fun doesn't stop there. If you want to extend your battery life still further, you can trigger a new Lower Power Mode, which Apple says is good for an extra three hours away from the plug. It also makes the power indicator turn orange.<img src="http://cdn2.macworld.co.uk/cmsdata/reviews/3613323/iOS_9_tips_12_battery_life_1200.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" />iOS 9 preview: Speed & performanceWill your iPad or iPhone get slower if you update to iOS 9? It may do. But we are optimistic that it won't.Each year, as a general rule, iOS gets a little more difficult to run: a bit more demanding on the processing power of the iDevice it's installed on. (This isn't an immutable law of computing, by the way: many operating systems get more processor-efficient as time passes. But it's held true for iOS for several years.) Apple is supposed to warn us about this by stipulating that only devices of sufficient power to run the thing are allowed to do so. But year after year, people who run the least powerful of the listed 'upgrade-capable' iPads and iPhones find that they get slower. When iOS 7 launched, iPhone 4 users were pleased to hear that they could install the new update, and less pleased when their smartphones slowed down overnight. For iOS 8 it was the iPhone 4s that suffered, despite Apple saying it was powerful enough to cope. So the first thing we would say about iOS 9 performance is this: if you've got a relatively old iPad or iPhone - specifically, if it's at the older end of the list of iOS 9-compatible devices (in the next section) - then be cautious about upgrading. We would strongly suggest holding back for a few days at least, to see if early upgraders find that their iPhone 4s (or whatever) is coping with the new OS. But here's a second and more positive point. Apple claims this year will be different: that iOS 9 is streamlined and efficient and actually easier to run than iOS 8. The list of compatible devices, as you'll see in a moment, is the same as the list for iOS 8; if you're running iOS 8 without any problems, then iOS 9 should be fine, and it could even run fractionally quicker. As we discussed in the new features section, Apple boasts that iOS 9 is so power-efficient that it will increase battery life of updated devices; it also says the install file will be something like a third of the size of the install file for iOS 8. It also boasts a feature that’ll delete apps to make space for future software updates, then re-install them once the device has updated. All of this points to a streamlined and relatively undemanding OS, and we're therefore optimistic about iOS 9 performance. Check back after the official launch of iOS 9 (in September) to see how it gets on in our speed tests.Which iPads & iPhones will be able to install and run iOS 9?This bring us nicely to the next key question: which iPads, iPhones and iPods will be allowed to install and run iOS 9? And, more importantly, which ones will be able to run it without suffering noticeable slow-down? This answer is simple: iOS 9 can run on all the devices that could run iOS 8. Good news for everyone! Here's that list of iOS 9-compatible devices, then:<ul> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">iPad 2, iPad 3, iPad 4, iPad Air, iPad Air 2, iPad Air 3*, iPad Pro*</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">iPad mini 1, iPad mini 2, iPad mini 3, iPad mini 4*</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">iPhone 4s, iPhone 5, iPhone 5c, iPhone 5s, iPhone 6, iPhone 6 Plus, iPhone 7 series*</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">iPod touch (fifth and sixth generation)</li> </ul>* Unconfirmed devices <img src="http://cdn2.macworld.co.uk/cmsdata/reviews/3613323/iOS_9_compatible_devices_iPhone_iPad_iPod_touch_1000.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" />[YOUTUBE]YXGZvAJZxlE[/YOUTUBE][YOUTUBE]_tszOvLz18M[/YOUTUBE]දාගත්ත එකෙක් ඉන්නව නම් දාපල්ලකෝ ScreenShots ටිකක්.... <img src="/styles/default/xenforo/smilies/default/P.gif"  class="smilie" loading="lazy" alt=":P" title=":P    :P" data-shortname=":P" /> විස්තර ටිකක් කියපන් හොදද නැද්ද කියල<img src="/styles/default/xenforo/smilies/default/yes.gif"  class="smilie" loading="lazy" alt=":yes:" title="Yes    :yes:" data-shortname=":yes:" /><img src="/styles/default/xenforo/smilies/default/yes.gif"  class="smilie" loading="lazy" alt=":yes:" title="Yes    :yes:" data-shortname=":yes:" /></blockquote>
