Here are some things that make a difference to me:

  • “Swipe” to type is much more accurate. It is predicting the words I want to say much better, even when I’m not quite hitting the letters while swiping.
  • I can hide all my “screens” (go into jiggle mode, then click the dots at the bottom of the screen above the dock). I like just having a photo. Slide in from left and I have all the widgets. Slide in from right and I have the app drawer. Pull down for notifications.
  • Text selection and cursor movement is much more accurate and fluid (but you have to get use to the new way).
