iOS 5 Concept Video: Notification Center Gets ‘Persistent Badge’ and ‘Widgets’

Jan-Michael Cart has just released another one of his beautiful iOS 5 concept videos. The latest video demonstrates improvements to Notification Center and introduces the ‘Persistent Badge’, a way of alerting users via tiny badges in the status bar.

Also, there’s other improvements to Widgets, collapsable notifications, and incoming calls as notifications. It’s a nice video showing what could be some notable improvements to iOS 5, set to be released this Fall.

Check out the video below:

You can check out his other videos here, and here.

Apple really needs to hire this guy; he just seems to get it. If they hired the jailbreak Notifyer programmer they really aughta bring Jan-Michael Cart in too.

The features shown here will probably take a year to reach iOS (to give us a reason to keep updating) and will be advertised as brilliant new concepts at that future time probably. It’s unfortunate that we’ll likely be waiting that long.

I like it. A very nice iteration to the new notification system. Unless he can program as well as he can make these vids, I doubt he will be hired by Apple.

My thoughts exactly, that’s one thning that I hate about Apple. They constantly leave out basic things on purpose just so they can add it on the next iteration. I Guarantee they won’t even add a quick settings option to the notifications drawer until the next iOS update.
