If you're not one of the people getting the new iPhone 6 then fret not. With iOS 8’s pending release in a few hours, your "old school" iPhone will pretty much get a refreshed software packed with added functionalities. Here are some of the new features to be available for both the iPhone 6 and even the earlier generations. Embedded time-lapse mode The iOS 8’s camera app has been incorporated with a time-lapse function (in addition to the slow-motion mode on iPhone 5S) that can be used to shoot long durations of footage and speed it up afterwards – pretty much like the Hyperlapse app. Cross-platform Continuity With just a swipe, the website you’re visiting on your MacBook can be continued in your iPhone using the company’s Continuity feature. Accept calls on your laptop When you update both your MacBook and iPhone to their latest OS versions, picking up a call on your computer is possible as long as your iPhone is connected to the same Wi-Fi as the laptop. Those are just some of the new features that will give our not-so latest iPhones a software makeover. With those, it's not too bad to not get the iPhone 6!
