iOS

iOS is Apple’s native operating system that powers its iDevices (iPhone, iPod, iPod Touch). It’s the main software people use to access the functionality of the device. Sometimes it is also written as an adjective; an application is installed on iOS devices, where iOS devices is referring to all the devices that run the iOS software. It is the first thing people interact with after powering up their device, appearing on the lock screen of iPad, iPhone, iPod touch. The operating system also controls the settings menu in these devices. Users can adjust toggles, screen rightness, WiFi, Bluetooth, and more through this menu.

Importantly, iOS enables people to run many applications that are downloaded from the App Store. iOS will do all the hard work while the apps run, managing the memory of the iDevice to ensure that all operations are running smooth. Any application available on the App Store runs on iOS devices. People just have to tap “App Store” on their device and go through what apps they need using the search function of the store. Some applications can be used for free and some cost money; you can find out more about that when you start downloading the app.

The iOS software is updated every year by Apple to keep things fresh. Every new update is loaded with new features that make the firmware better. Also, each update is available with a new number, so it’s easy for users to figure which iOS firmware is installed or available on their iPhone, iPad, iPod Touch.
