Hits of IOS 8
Healthbook
Both the rivals Samsung and Apple are concerned for the fitness app, hence IOS 8 has Healthbook that has similar interface as passboo
k.
What would Healthbook do?
It would track the user steps taken; distance travelled by user, calories burned and also weight loss.
Other apps such as FitBit Force, makes sense as Apple has M7 motion co-processor into iPhone 5S so that those sort of things can be tracked. The App would track hydration levels, blood sugar, heart rate, respiratory rate taking a leap ahead of existing fitness tracker.
As per rumours iPhone 6 may have array of new sensors to track almost each and every detail of human body.
Apple Maps
Google maps are much better then Apple maps. As per source 9 to 5 Mac updates would cover public transport directions for trains, buses and also subways would be added to maps. As of now only the source, 9ns can use this later other may follow. There is also more confirmation from the same source that accuracy would be amended and new labels would be added for stations and airports.
Appearance of the maps would also be improved to provide clear view of streets.
Siri
Siri is your own personal assistant, one of the prominent features by Apple Inc. as of now. According to the sources of a tech site siri can be compatible with third party apps. In future, apps can be compatible with Siri and developer can develop such kind of apps.

ss app.
ITunes Radio
If words believed from sources 9 to 5 Mac, it is said that IOS 8 would have a separate app, because currently it’s part of music App. By this change the iTune radio would be more noticeable to user and can be used by other 3rd party apps also.
Preview and text Edit.
The view of IOS 8 can be same as above in which we can see the icons are much similar to that of IOS 7 but there are some additional apps such as Text Edit in which PDF’s or any text files can be edited directly. 9 to 5 a source says that this is much confirmed information to be relying on.
App Updates.
As per the gossips from unnamed sources there are minor updates to apps. Notification centre is getting new look and would be reorganised for IOS 8. The update would eliminate the “Missed” and “All” and “Today” tabs.
The Messaging app is also added with a new function so that user can user can automatically delete thread of messages after certain period of time.
