7 Best New Features Of iOS 7 - part 2

2. Timer in the lock screen

The timer in the included Clock app is very handy, such as to get alerts about parking meters about to expire. But until iOS 7, if your iPhone was locked, you had to unlock it and go to the app to see how much time you had left. Now, the countdown displays in the lock screen, and you can dismiss the timer alert sound there as well.

3. Today view in the Notification Center

The Notification Center has been expanded in iOS 7 to add two panes: Missed, showing only alerts and messages not already seen, and Today, which shows you the weather, a snapshot of your calendar, and optionally, your tracked stocks and a summary of tomorrow's day. It's a very handy way to see what's shaping up right now.


In part 3, of this 4 four part series, I'll bring you two more Best New Features.
