Folders, Unclutter your life

Folders, how they organize our lives like no tomorrow. Without folders, our lives would be so cluttered, paper flying everywhere and we still can’t find that one paper we need. The same goes with our iTouch, iPhone, or iPad. Our home screen and other pages have so many apps it takes awhile to find one. That why Apple has created folders for us to use. Our home screens are always cluttered with so many apps that it’s difficult to find one app that we really app. Of course there is the search button for your use, but sometimes finding the app is easier then typing it in. Using folders are very easy actually. All you do is hold onto an app until the screen starts shaking. Then you hold onto an app and drag it onto another app. It will automatically make it into a folder. From there, the folder can hold up to 12 apps and you can also rename the app.

I personally love the use of the folders. It clears up my home screen and makes my iTouch look better. Other people like the use of apps because it makes them look like they have more apps. Which is technically does, but it definitely matters on your own choice. Everybody likes something different, but I prefer the folders. The ease of use stares at you in the face. It speeds up the process looking for apps. It also gathers all the same items of the same likeness and puts them into a folder.

AirPlay gone wireless

What is AirPlay?  AirPlay allows the user to stream videos and music wirelessly through your iTouch, iPhone, iPod with the iTunes music player with iOS 4.2. iOS 4.2 is updated software that comes with many new features such as AirPlay. When you find that one incredible picture that you want to show to a party, you can stream it to your T.V. effortlessly. The whole party will be astonished at the picture and how easily you sent your picture to the T.V., no wires attached. All you need is an Apple T.V. and you will be worry free. Technically of course because nothing is worry free. You can stream your videos easily to your T.V. Just think, you’re watching an amazing action scene on your iTouch. That little screen doesn’t give you enough emotion so instead you turn your T.V. on and click the AirPlay icon and there you go. The full action scene except on your T.V. that is easily bigger to see then on your iTouch.

The ease of use of the AirPlay is definitely recognizable. I always have those moments when I want to watch an action scene, but sadly I have to see it on my iTouch. Now that AirPlay has come out, I love the way that I can turn my T.V. on and easily play that action scene. Now that many movies have come out with major effects, it makes AirPlay that much more useful.

Multitasking on the iPad

On November 22, 2010, Apple announced that iOS 4.2 is available today for download for iPad, iPhone, and iPod touch. iOS 4.2 provides the multitasking feature to the iPad. When you multitask on the iPad, you can juggle more then one thing at a time. Everything happens smoothly and efficiently. Multitasking works by letting you use multiple apps without slowing down the performance of the foreground app. The multitasking user interface allows you to easily switch between different apps that are in use just by double-clicking the home button to bring up a list of your recently used apps. You can scroll to the left or the right to view more recently opened apps and you can click one to reopen it. When you reopen the app, it continues exactly from where you left off. You can continue doing whatever you were doing with that app when closed it. You can also listen to audio while you are checking your email, surfing the web, and playing games.

Multitasking is an extremely convenient feature. With multitasking, you can switch from one app to another with ease and be able to switch back just as easily. You can play one game and when you are bored of it, you can switch to another game. When you want to continue to play the first game you played, you just reopen it again. You can go on Safari, check your email, and continue where you left off on Safari. What do you think about multitasking?
