 kicks off for the first time ever at SXSW. iOS 7.1 includes a number of
 new features, interface tweaks and bug fixes for the iPhone, iPad and 
iPod touch as outlined below.<br />

Arriving roughly six months after the launch of iOS 7, the first major update includes support for <a href="http://askneed.blogspot.com/2014/03/apple-releases-ios-71-for-iphone-ipad.html" target="_blank">CarPlay</a>.
 Formerly known as the iOS in the car initiative, Apple unveiled CarPlay
 a week ago during the Geneva Motor Show with support from Ferrari, 
Mercedes-Benz and Volvo.<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />

Apple also improved the Touch ID fingerprint recognition system found on the <a href="http://askneed.blogspot.com/2014/03/apple-releases-ios-71-for-iphone-ipad.html" target="_blank">iPhone 5s</a><a href="https://www.blogger.com/null">.</a>
 Elsewhere, users can now control how long Siri listens for voice 
commands by simply holding down the Home button as you speak. The 
personal assistant also received improved voices in Mandarin Chinese, 
Australian <a href="http://askneed.blogspot.com/2014/03/apple-releases-ios-71-for-iphone-ipad.html" target="_blank">English</a>, UK English and Japanese which are said to sound more
 natural.<br />

New accessibility options include a bold font option for the keyboard, 
calculator and many icons, the ability to reduce motion in Weather, 
Messages and multitasking <a href="http://askneed.blogspot.com/2014/03/apple-releases-ios-71-for-iphone-ipad.html" target="_blank">UI </a>animations and the ability to darken app 
colors and reduce white point.<br />
