iPhone OS 4.0 will get multitasking - Apple already has a solution

Since the advent of the iPhone, the debate about whether it needs multitasking or can do without it does not subside. Now, from the resource AppleInsider received information that the long-awaited update of iPhone OS 4.0 (according to rumors, it will be released within a few months), which will be supported by multitasking, will appear soon. Of course, the question arises - how did Apple manage to do this, given that the iPhone does not have a traditional window-like operating system?

According to people from AppleInsider, Apple found a solution to a “multitasking” puzzle in the form of an application manager, similar to what is already used in Mac OS X. Of course, the details and details about the firmware and its capabilities are kept secret, because until the release iPhone OS 4.0 is still far away and, according to the company, it is not quite ready to be shown to the world.

Although many people believe that the iPhone is not designed for multitasking at all, Apple can refute this - since 2008 (when the App Store is launched), the company listens to users and takes into account their experience when working with the device, and the ability of branded applications to work. the background is present - for example, iPod, Mail or SMS and MMS. Apple experts understand that if you allow the use of full-fledged multitasking, then such parameters as battery life, resource conservation and security come into play, and Apple does not want to sacrifice long battery life of the gadget just because someone sent a pause game to the background and forgot about it.

So, if Apple really figured out how to achieve multi-tasking without sacrificing everything else, we look forward to seeing this solution in action.
