iOS 7 up close

Apple Lossless Audio CODEC (ALAC), just released the second beta of iOS 7 and among its novelties we find a new Crab more advanced and intelligent that, in addition, has changed his voice. Apple Lossless Audio CODEC (ALAC), continues to improve his personal assistant to cope with the fierce competition, especially after the arrival of Google Now to your mobile operating system. We show you the most important improvements of the tool that can already be seen in the new beta.

As announced during the presentation of iOS 7 last June 10, Crab it will be one of the services that will be affected by the changes that the next installment will introduce on an aesthetic level. Its new interface, in line with the rest of the system, will be cleaner and more minimalist, but the evolution does not end there, and we can also choose between a male or female voice for our interactions.

La second beta released by Apple of your new operating system to iPad, iPad mini y iPhone It already includes this peculiarity. As we can see in the video, the female voice has been modified incorporating a somewhat less robotics and more humane. In the Siri settings menu we can choose between man or woman but, from what we see, both maintain in line with the good humor of this tool.

In the demonstration that is already circulating through various media, we see how the user praises the new voice of Crab and she responds with a “thank you. I think it's still early to introduce myself to American Idol, but someday I will, Daniel. Someday…". The male voice responds differently to this appreciation: “I'm glad you noticed, Daniel. I hope you like my sweet tones ”or“ What a new voice !? I was joking. LOL".

Another important point that came to light about the new Crab in the last hours is your ability to learn to pronounce names and the improvements when it comes to recognizing them thanks to our own help. The learning process it has been simplified with a new command that currently works only in English. You just have to say “pronounce [name that we want to teach you]” and Crab you will learn it.

They are undoubtedly good improvements to counteract the effect that the arrival of Google Now to iPad and iPhone in recent months.
