I upgraded my iPhone\u2019s OS to version 2.2. I\u2019ve noticed some pretty decent improvements. Little things mainly that bugged. Not enough to make me complain, but little things that I wondered why it didn\u2019t work right, and was probably a pretty easy fix to begin with.<\/p>\n
Scrolling through contacts for example. Ever since our iPhones inherited the capability to update via MobileMe, there has been a small lag from the time Contacts was opened until the time Contacts was able to be used in any meaningful manner. This issue has, at least for now, been resolved.<\/p>\n
Another little bug was the time-stamp that email was last checked. This is displayed at the bottom of the email screen where the contents of the inbox is displayed. Email could have been last checked at 5PM, but the time that is displayed will be the time prior to the last time – at least until you navigate out of the inbox and back into it; then it will be correct. That appears to have been fixed.<\/p>\n
The final bug that I have noticed is, and this probably wasn\u2019t a bug so much as a personal preference in design, that whenever updates to 3rd party applications were happening, iPhone took you out of the App Store and moved your screen over to the final one to display your update downloading, then deleted that \u201cphantom\u201d application, and left you at that last screen. Even that was an update to a previous version where the application being upgraded was relocated to that final screen. Now updating an application will take you to the screen where that application is already located and replaces it.<\/p>\n
General fluidity between application and home has increased. Usually, jumping from any app into home will shrink current application while bringing in the home screen. After a while, this transition didn\u2019t appear so fluid. So far today it has maintained its smoothness. Time will show how permanent this is.<\/p>\n
There are other major (Safari UI has changed a bit) and seemingly minor (security updates) improvements, but these are features I hadn\u2019t heard about and thought deserved a shout-out.<\/p>\n
On a related note, the iPod touch, Apple TV, and iTunes all upgraded without any hitches.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
