We weren’t the first to this party but we’re gonna be the best.” said Steve Jobs at Apple’s April event, addressing what was quite possibly the most desired missing iPhone feature – multitasking.
The iPhone finally got multitasking, a feature that had been available for quite some time on other devices. Instead of running application icons in a toolbar like on Android, Apple went with a hidden menu that could be brought to focus with a simple double tap of the home button.
Whilst its not full multi-tasking in the true sense of the word, the feature does help many iPhone users that were frustrated with losing progress in a game or having to exit an app to find some extra information.
