The iPhone 5 should have a whole new design and with iOS 6, so there will be a list of all the new features on we get closer to that date. Lets focus on the iPhone 4S for now

If you go to that link and scroll to the bottom. It lists ios history but it lists every feature for each ios version. Scroll down to ios5 and it lists all 200+ features for ios5. I have a link on here I copied and pasted the 200+ features in but nto really wanting to search for it. But the link I posted has them all. The list is long too, lol

I'm confused. The OP was asking the best feature of iOS 5...the version of iOS being released tomorrow.

**Farmdreads** · 10-11-2011, 07:20 PM

Yeah, this whole thread is confusing.

**diamonddialogue** · 10-11-2011, 07:24 PM

This entire forum can be confusing lately.

**ghostface147** · 10-11-2011, 08:05 PM

a lot of freshmen asking a lot of easily answered questions if looked up right

**iPhoneGleek** · 10-11-2011, 08:22 PM

FaceTime over 3G..Oh Wait :roll eyes:

but seriously I love the new notifications! That might be my favorite feature of iOS 5

**NotHomer** · 10-11-2011, 10:15 PM

I got a little lost there too. My favorite new feature would have to be Reminders.

**Calebswag7** · 10-11-2011, 10:27 PM

Yes haha the guy who talked about the screen being bigger made this whole thing confusing. I'd definitely say my favorite features would be AirPlay mirroring, notifications and creating albums and calendars on the device.

I don't know what you're taking about. The 4 inch screen is BY FAR the best feature if IOS5. Well, maybe the aluminum back with the tapered design might be better. We will have to wait and see. Friday can't come fast enough!!

**MustangLife** · 10-12-2011, 05:26 AM

The best feature that I just now discovered is the lockscreen. We can now text, call, listen to voicemail from the lockscreen without opening the phone. When you get the text,voicemail,missed call on your lockscreen. Just swipe from left to right and it automatically goes to text, or to voicemail or immediately dials the missed phone call. I love it

When did operating system updates start to include larger touchscreens?

You only got the 4 inch screen when you upgraded? Mine went all the way to 7 inches. There's a toggle setting in Settings -> General -> T.A.R.D.I.S. that controls the screen size of your phone.
I hear iOS 5.1 is planning to add a Lightsaber mode but they're having problems with battery life and heat when it's enabled.

**diamonddialogue** · 10-12-2011, 09:43 AM

Ha. I've been wanting that Lightsaber mode for when I head to the Death Star to pick up my new iPhone.

**Mella** · 10-13-2011, 03:51 AM

I think iMessenge is the best! Let you keep in connecting~
And the ability to play 1080p vids also makes me exciting! That's so great!

**jcqb15** · 10-13-2011, 06:26 AM

The best features in my opinion are the wireless sync, LED light for notifications, and the notification center. Pretty sweet update. I have the iPhone 4 and it's like a whole new phone!

**everythingsbs#im** · 10-13-2011, 12:21 PM

I think the best feature is finally being able to get rid of the keyboard if you don't want it open during a text message. I always hated, prior iOS5, when i would accidentally would tap the reply box and the keyboard would pop up. You couldn't get rid of it without having to back out of the text, go to another one, open it, close that one, and then go back to the text and do whatever you had planned.

Plus I'm really liking notification center and the slide to reply on certain messages too.
