IOS 4.2 – What’s there for the iPhone 3GS

iosiphone

I have looked at iOS 4.2 wrap-ups and all I can see are features for iPad.

Besides AirPrint (which does not work with my printer), is there anything for the iPhone 3GS there?

Best Answer

Among other things:

  • Free “Find my iPhone” (don’t need MobileMe) —> this requires an iPhone 4
  • Safari allows you to search inside the page
  • You can assign different SMS/MMS/ALERTS to different phonebook contacts
  • AirPlay / AirPrint?
  • A volume slider control in the Multitaskbar
  • New icon for Voice Memos
    • -

Anything else?

UPDATE: There’s a trick to use the Find my iPhone in a 3GS or similar. I found out that if you create everything from an iPhone 4 (and/or presumably an iPod TOuch latest gen), you can later go to your 3Gs and enter the same data and it will work. :)
