The iPod Touch runs iOS. The first major update after the initial release was iPhone OS 2.0 This update introduced the App Store, which allowed third-party applications for the first time. iPhone OS 2.0 debuted July 11, 2008. iPhone users received the update for free, while iPod Touch users had to pay for the update. The second major update to the operating system, iPhone OS 3.0, was released June 17, 2009. iPhone OS 3.0 added features such as cut, copy, and paste; data tethering; and push notification support. As with the previous major release, iPhone users received the update for free, while iPod Touch users had to pay for the update. iOS 4.0 was made available to the public on June 21, 2010. It was the first major iOS release to drop support for some devices; the first generation iPod Touch and original iPhone are not supported in iOS 4.0. The iPhone 3G and second generation iPod Touch had limited functionality under iOS 4.0, while the iPhone 4, iPhone 3GS, third generation iPod Touch, and fourth generation iPod Touch had full functionality under iOS 4.0. The major features introduced in iOS 4.0 included iBooks, FaceTime, and multitasking. iOS 5.0 was previewed to the public on June 6, 2011, and was released on October 12, 2011.
In June 2011, iOS 5, the fifth major release of iOS software, was announced at Apple's WWDC 2011. There will be added features in the new update, including notifications, messaging and reminders. On October 4, 2011 at Apple's "Let's Talk iPhone" event iOS 5 and the iPhone 4S were announced to the public with many new features such as Siri, iMessage and wireless upgrades; this software upgrade was released on October 12, 2011. No new iPod Touch specific changes were announced, other than a price drop and the option to choose between black and white.[citation needed]
The iPod Touch and the iPhone share essentially the same hardware and run the same iOS operating system. The iPod Touch lacks some of the iPhone's features and associated apps, such as access to cellular networks, GPS navigation and the inbuilt compass. Older models also lacked speakers and cameras. Although the SMS and Phone apps are included on the iPod Touch software, they are disabled and therefore not visible. Also, the sleep/wake button was on the opposite side, up until the release of the iPod Touch 4th generation. Since it doesn't need GPS and cellular components, the iPod Touch is slimmer and lighter than the iPhone. Steve Jobs once referred to the iPod Touch as "training wheels for the iPhone".
Another major difference is the quality of the back camera compared to the iPhone. While the iPod Touch, like the iPhone, allows for HD video recording, the iPhone camera stills deliver higher quality photos to that of the iPod's.
For iPod Touch units bought before October 12, 2011, users must own a Mac or PC computer to be able to use the iPod. Users then must install iTunes and connect the iPod through a USB port. The iPod will then be set up in iTunes. New iPods bought after October 12, 2011 have iOS 5.0 preloaded, and allow activation wirelessly, without the need of a PC or Mac.
Earlier iPod Touch units must be plugged into a computer to be synced. This will charge the iPod Touch and sync the music library, videos, pictures and back up data. iOS 5 enables the user to do all this from the device and send it to the iCloud service. It is not manageable by Mac OS X 10.4 Tiger.
Starting with the second generation, iPod Touch can only be charged from the 5 V pin of the dock connector while most previous iPod models (including the original iPod Touch) could also be charged from the 12 V pin for FireWire power. This change dropped support for charging in vehicles equipped with a FireWire-based iPod connection. Most aftermarket manufacturers of such equipment offer cables and/or adapters which convert the vehicle's 12 V to 5 V. To purchase content on the iPod Touch, you must create an Apple ID or have an existing account. With this account you may download music and videos from the iTunes Store, apps from the App Store, or books from the iBookstore. An Apple ID account created without a credit card can be used to get free content. The only official way to obtain third-party applications for the iPod Touch is Apple's App Store, which is a branch of iTunes Store. The App Store application, available in all versions of iOS from 2.0 onwards, allows users to browse and download applications from a single online repository (hosted by Apple) with the iTunes Store. To develop such software, a software development kit (SDK) was officially announced on March 6, 2008, at an Apple Town Hall meeting. The iPhone SDK allows developers to make applications for the iPhone and iPod Touch after paying a fee to join the development team. The developer can then set the price for the applications they develop and will receive 70% of money earned. Apple retains 30% of the sale price with no minimum fixed fee.
