iPhone OS 4.0 predictions
Apple has already confirmed that they will be holding an event next Wednesday to update their product line. The question now is what will they be announcing? One of the things that they will probably talk about is the fourth generation iPhone software update. Today that’s what I am going to focus on. Here is what I think will be included in iPhone OS 4.0.
Multitasking
The fact that you can only run one app at a time on the iPhone is in my opinion one of the phone’s biggest flaws. Hopefully, Apple will fix this with iPhone OS 4.0. If Apple can implement multitasking, it will totally change the iPhone and what I think about it. The company has been claiming that multitasking will kill the phone’s battery quicker but I think that once Apple comes out with new hardware and adds a better battery, this will not be an excuse anymore.
New home screen layout
The iPhone’s home screen is getting a little old and stale, in my opinion. Hopefully, in OS 4.0 they will come up with a way for the user to customize the home screen and change the layout.
Replying to SMS messages with out opening up the Messages app
Now, I know there is an app in Cydia for this but I don’t remember what it’s called. But, if Apple were to add a feature where you dont have to tap the reply button and be sent back to the Messages app every time somebody sends you a test message when you are in another app then I would be happy and I know it would save me A LOT of time.
What are some features you want to see in the next generation iPhone software?

I’m really hoping that Quickreply is in iPhone OS 4.0, if it isn’t that’s simply ridiculous. I’d love to see Lockinfo integrated as well.
Those two things (along with multitasking), are the only reasons I jailbroke my iPhone; although it is now restored.
