For example, Hello SMS comes with features like an automatic night mode where the screen switches to white text on a black background, tabbed view to quickly see messages from different senders, and automatically switching to instant-messaging over the Internet when connecting to another person who uses Hello. With Dialer+, for example, you get a T9 dialer so you can use the same keypad to either enter a contact's name or phone number, and it searches your contacts and shows matches while you dial.Īlong with calls, your SMS service can also be customised completely by Android apps. Android phone makers usually put their own diallers which have different features, but you can also turn to apps like Dialer+ and Ready Contact List to add functionality. But calling someone from an iPhone still means either searching through your contacts, or dialling a number from memory. We lose sight of the fact that our phones are still used to make calls. Give it access to your calendar and you can have it keep quiet in meetings, and using your location it can automatically go silent when you're inside a cinema hall. And you could disable the password when your phone is connected to the home Wi-Fi, for easy access, but re-enable it when you're outdoors, so your phone is never unlocked when you're not at home. You can set up a geofence to turn your phone's Wi-Fi on when you're near your home or office, and keep it off the rest of the time to conserve battery. Tasker is a paid app, but Llama is free - both are powerful automation tools. If you want to do more though, then you should check out Android apps like Tasker and Llama.
It's pretty neat but also fairly limited. On the iPhone, you can install IFTTT and automate some of the functions on your phone. Others, like Yahoo Aviate and EverythingMe customise your homescreen to show you the apps that you need, before you even know you need them. An app like Nova Launcher lets you customise almost all the elements of your home screen, such as the size of the grid, the number of icons in the dock, adding widgets to the dock and much more. You can install a launcher that replaces your home screen, and there are a number of different reasons to do this too. One of the big differences between iOS and Android is how customisable the latter is. Here are a few things you still can't do on iOS devices. Though the two system are starting to resemble each other, Android's famously "open" ecosystem still gives many more options in terms of the kind of apps that are possible on the platform.
( Also see: iPhone 6 Plus Review: Almost Too Much of a Good Thing) In many ways iOS is starting to resemble like Android, with like extensions and third-party keyboards, while Android is looking to close the gap on iOS in terms of design with the new Material Design philosophy. The new iPhones reached Indian markets recently and there's definitely a lot to like about them.
