Only a month is left that Apple Inc (NASDAQ:AAPL) will be releasing the brand new iOS 9 in September, which is also known as “Golden Master seed”.
The feature is not new and earlier users had to press home button twice before switching among the Applications.
This, of course, is a great strategy for improving productivity and it is a very helpful option for presentations or for any time you need to be able to switch quickly between apps.
It is also said some new features have been introduced in the upcoming iOS 9 to enhance security. Moreover, new features concerning security have been updated such as instead of using four-digit pass code, a six-digit pass code can be used.
Some of the other noteworthy additions which Apple has made to the iOS 9 software to enhance overall user experience include a “predictive” Siri digital personal assistant; and the capability to automatically learn the users’ habits, and to provide suggestions about what they want to do next. So either you enter that six-digit passcode or unlock using the Touch ID in the supported devices.
More than that, Apple claims that gone are the days when anyone could hack and break into an iOS device; according to their marketing, not even the government can have control over one’s device unless the user gives up the passcode.
iOS 9 also comes with a stack view which helps transition between apps by double tapping the home button. There are some glitches in the latest beta as well.
One more operating system to be released by Apple Inc is the Mac OS X EL Capitan 10.11 but it is still in the beta phase.

Compared to the iOS 8, the new iOS 9 is more secure. Despite having some concerns with other Mac OS X applications namely Safari and Spotlight; the developer version is set for any Mac device. While some people have battery life problems with iPhone 6 / 5S, these are normal percentages seen with various installs and not the majority of users with the current update installed.
