iOS 5 Spotted In the Wild Thanks to Crash Report

Apple has started field-testing its following-multiplication mobile operating organisation dubbed iOS 5. The hint comes from an App Shop developer who received a crash report from a device running iOS 5.0, located at Apple's headquarters. Perhaps sign the release of the New iOS is imminent, the developer as wel spotted iOS5 hits from AT&T's Military headquarters, where the release could be time-tested in front public availability.

Developer FutureTap tipped 9to5Mac that it has received the best crash report from an iOS 5 device. The crash was apparently because of a user location issue (if you have iOS developing knowledge, it's called MKUserLocationBreadCrumb). With some online dig, the developer found the crash came from a first-generation iPad running iOS 5.0 at Apple's headquarters, while AT&T's iOS 5 hits came from an iPhone 4.

If not only Apple, but also AT&T is testing builds of iOS 5, this could signify that the OS is nearing a public release, OR leastways a public demo, possibly at Apple's World Wide Developers Conference in early June. The fact that iOS 5 is not beingness tested on new hardware at this stage likewise gives credence to rumors that we South Korean won't see a red-hot iPhone until later in Sept (and that the new twist is not yet in manufacturing stages).

Heretofore Apple has kept calm over what new features will be present in iOS 5. Before reports point the new OS would make up "heavily built around the cloud," with some new services added to iPhones and iPads. One of them is said to be a music locker service, basically a way of storing and accessing all your euphony (purchased from iTunes) wirelessly, without the need to sync with a primary data processor (like IT is the case now).

Another of these defile services is expected to beryllium a location-based military service that would appropriate users to find friends and home members. On best of that, a revamp of Malus pumila's MobileMe service is anticipated, potentially free (currently $99 per year), which would give every iDevice holder gratis access to Orchard apple tree's cloud e-mail, calendar, and storage service.
