Speaking of Siri, iOS 7.1 makes it possible to control when Siri listens manually by holding the Home button down while you speak and releasing it when you’re done - a sort of walkie-talkie interface. Also note that CarPlay isn’t available in all countries. Most other carmakers are promising future support for CarPlay later on. But don’t get your hopes up unless you’re planning to buy a Ferrari, Mercedes-Benz, Volvo, Honda, or Hyundai in the near future. CarPlay also integrates control of these iOSĪpps with the car’s own buttons, knobs, and touch screen. With CarPlay’s “eyes-free” approach, you’ll be able to answer an incoming phone call, dictate text messages, request directions, and navigate your music library. New to iOS 7.1 is support for CarPlay, which is designed to use Siri voice commands and prompts to let you control certain apps, including Phone, Music, Maps, Messages, and third-party audio apps, without looking at your iPhone (only the iPhone 5, 5c, and 5s are supported). Plus, the incoming call interface now offers separate circular Decline and Accept buttons below the controls for Remind Me and Message. You’ll also see a new, rounded look for the power-off screen and for the call button in the Phone app. I strongly encourage everyone to explore these settings to see which are the most comfortable for your eyes. Those who find the motion aspects of iOS 7 nausea-inducing (or just irritating) will be happy to learn that the Reduce Motion option in Accessibility now includes the Weather and Messages apps, and multitasking animations.
I particularly like Darken Colors, simply because I prefer more saturated colors to iOS 7’s pastels. In Settings > General > Accessibility > Increase Contrast, two new options - Darken Colors and Reduce White Point - join Reduce Transparency in making the interface less washed-out. (Turning Bold Text on or off requires restarting your device.)Ī new option in the Accessibility settings, Button Shapes, draws shaded outlines around previously text-only buttons, which can make it easier to distinguish label text from controls.
