hi I'm Joshua Smith from cc.com now that
0:03
iOS 8 has been officially revealed and
0:05
set to publicly release this fall many
0:07
Android users have claimed that the new
0:08
Apple features are unimpressive as
0:10
similar features are already available
0:12
on the latest version of Android with
0:14
the ongoing argument heating up stay
0:16
tuned as I take some of the best iOS 8
0:18
features and put it head-to-head versus
0:19
Android's Kit Kat to see which comes out
0:26
top the iPhone 5s and the Samsung Galaxy
0:29
S5 are two of the leading phones in the
0:31
mobile world today and ios8 hopes to
0:34
give the iPhone an edge the new Smart
0:36
Keyboard makes suggestions out of
0:37
context to the conversation and also
0:40
depending on whom you're speaking to
0:42
when typing a generic sentence like
0:43
shown it suggests most of the words you
0:45
would generally use after the other
0:47
giving users the ability to say what
0:49
they want faster than they could before
0:51
Android KitKat stock keyboard features a
0:53
similar enhancement suggesting three
0:55
words on screen but also the ability to
0:57
see more from the right something not
1:00
available on iOS with about the same
1:02
accuracy on both platforms the ability
1:04
to quickly take photos videos and more
1:06
is the only thing that elevates this
1:09
Android when searching for something
1:12
Spotlight on iOS is the way to go and
1:14
thanks to its new ability to suggest
1:16
items live from the internet and on your
1:18
device doing things like finding movie
1:20
times or accessing your favorite sites
1:22
without rumaging through a dedicated app
1:24
is easy when searching for col to Max
1:26
Spotlight suggests App Store entries
1:28
Wikipedia and more in just seconds
1:31
taking the same approach from Android's
1:33
native Google search does its best to
1:34
suggest related internet sources but
1:36
fails to display contacts messages and
1:39
more which can be found helpful on iOS
1:41
users are then left to look in more
1:43
detail by doing an official Google
1:45
search where they can then search
1:46
through results for exactly what they'd
1:48
like overall the iOS experience is built
1:50
with more of an intemp for the user to
1:52
have to do less work less Taps and
1:54
quicker results to access what you want
1:56
while both platforms can get you to your
1:58
desired destination I can clearly help
2:00
you do so quicker and more accurately
2:03
and while our phones hold the core
2:04
pieces of information we care about a
2:06
powerful notification center can make
2:08
knowing all of it that much easier an
2:10
updated iOS 8 Center brings more insight
2:12
to weather customization and reordering
2:15
settings and third party widgets swiping
2:17
down the notifications tab on Android
2:19
gives users quick access to settings
2:21
like Wi-Fi and screen orientation but
2:23
limits their on tap access at screen
2:25
brightness and notifications below While
2:28
most of these settings are separately
2:29
under control center less customization
2:31
and features are boldly absent from
2:33
Android and can have a noticeable impact
2:35
on the user experience placing iOS ahead
2:38
once again lastly when opening tons of
2:41
apps double clicking the home button on
2:42
iOS can bring up your screen to toggle
2:44
between applications and now also quick
2:47
access to contacts for texts calls and
2:49
more the Tab screen on Android KitKat
2:52
gives users the ability to swipe to
2:53
close Apps and tap to jump into them but
2:56
not much more than in more detail by the
2:58
storage buttons a more useful feature
3:00
for communication on iOS completely
3:02
absent on Android and you can see more
3:04
iOS 8 features and more on cc.com that
3:08
was some of the best ios8 features going
3:10
head-to-head versus Android Kit Kat but
3:12
which do you think came out on top let
3:13
