My top iOS7 features.

On Wednesday, Apple released  the new iOS 7. Similar to many Apple users, I have been anticipating to upgrade to the new iOS7 as it incorporates many new features.
Overall, the features had lived up to expectations. These are my few favorite features iOS 7 has included:


Blocking calls and text messages.



Finally, Apple has incorporated this feature to the iOS7. This is by far the most relevant feature that should be included since ages ago. It gets annoying when advertisers or random numbers are calling every day. As for now, problem is solved as it is possible to block unwanted calls and text messages just by hitting Settings>Phone>Blocked.


Control Center.



Swipe up from the bottom, and you will see this control center. This is by far one of the most convenient feature iOS7 has included. I like the fact that the air plane mode can be turned on from this control center. Prior to the iOS7, to turn on the air plane mode, users had to go to Settings. Besides that, I thought including the torch light mode in the control center was really smart. In case of any emergency, pulling out the torch light would not be a hassle anymore.


Taking Square Pictures.



Exactly, how can I not love this feature?  This feature enables the camera to take square pictures regardless of the orientations whether on portrait or landscape. Being an Instagram addict, this feature makes my life a lot easier as I am able to share photos without editing it on Squaready (an app to shrink pictures to square in order to fit into Instagram's frame).

In summary, I am pretty satisfied with what iOS7 has offered. Being a consumer, a change is always good, regardless if a brand has lifted any ideas from other brands.
