Apple is working on implementation in iOS 5 of a new feature voice control, called Assistant. The new feature was discovered by those from 9 to 5 Mac, with a screenshot provided by a “reliable source”. Assistant is not yet in the current development version of iOS beta 5, so it is likely to be exclusively feature for the iPhone 5. (Just as Voice Control was exclusive for 3GS.)

The leak suggests that in addition to text conversion in speech and ordering the basic functions of the iPhone, the new program also will integrate the technology used in Siri application that Apple has purchased recently. Siri is a free application that uses data stored on your device, such as location, calendar events and many others to find the best way to fulfill your request.

For example, if you say “Find me two tickets to the Transformers movie tonight”, Assistant will find available tickets to a location nearest for you. In addition, the application will have the ability to respond to the user.

According to sources, the feature is still in the process of development and may not be ready in time for launch the next generation of iPhone. May be one of the many programs that Apple is testing. We will wait and see.

VirusBarrier is the first application from the App Store specially designed to protect our devices for malware and other viruses available for Mac OS X or Windows.

The application is built by the company Intego that says that any Internet-connected device needs such a protection system. Intego recommend VirusBarrier to all persons accessing the documents by mail, Dropbox, MobileMe or any other platforms that can hide files at any viruses or malware. VirusBarrier scans any files accessed by our device, and here we are talking about the attachments from our emails and about the files accessed or downloaded from a server in our device.

Those from Intego say there is no virus for iOS yet but as malware and viruses from the files of our devices can get into computers as soon as we download the files. VirusBarrier is quite an awesome application fopr iOS, if you want to protect yourself and your device just take it.

VideoLock is an application available on AppStore for a while that allows you to set a password for the videos we have in our iPhone device. Basically, to be protected by a password, you must move videos from the phone gallery in the application of which we speak now or we can do other things and save them directly into VideoLock.

Besides these functions, VideoLock will allow you also to view movies directly from the application, and sharing with your friends on the famous breakneck social networks and even can send them by email or on YouTube. I recommend this application if you have some compromising videos on your phone especially because for a short period of time VideoLock is freely available in AppStore, so take the opportunity and install it.
