New features
Photos and Camera
The Photos app contains more options to edit photos. The cropping feature now enables rotating images both clockwise and counter-clockwise. Furthermore, users can set the desired brightness and colors for photos. The Camera app now features a shot timer, which can be set to 3 or 10 seconds.
Notification Center
Notification Center is much improved in comparison to iOS 7 and 7.1. Users can now add and remove widgets in Notification Center with the "Edit" button. This also allows the rearrangement of notification widgets. From iOS 8 beta 3 onwards the "clear" button, used to clear notifications, is more visible. Users are now able to reply to text messages directly from the notification center.
Messages
In the Messages app, users can send audio and video messages by holding down the record button. In group conversations, users can add or remove someone from a thread, name a thread, share their location in a thread, view all attachments, and turn on Do Not Disturb to not receive notifications from a specific thread. Users can also set messages to auto delete after 30 days or a year.
Design
iOS 8 has the same design as iOS 7, however, transparency and other effects have been added. The multitasking screen now shows a list of recently called and favorited contacts.
Keyboards
iOS 8 includes a new predictive typing feature called QuickType. It displays word selections above the keyboard as one types. The feature can be turned off in Settings, or hidden using a swipe gesture. Additionally, iOS 8 will allow users to install third-party keyboards. Many developers stated they would port their keyboards to iOS, including Minuum, Swype, SwiftKey, Fleksy and Adaptxt.
Family Sharing
New to iOS 8, a user can add six others as family members. Family members can share purchased apps, music, and books using the same credit card. iOS 8 can also automatically set up photo streams for all family members. Calendars may be synced between all members. Kids can also send iTunes download requests for apps, music, movies, and more to their parents provided this service is set up correctly.
iCloud Drive
Main article: iCloud Drive
iCloud Drive is Apple's file hosting service for devices running iOS 8 or OS X Yosemite. This feature allows users to save photos, videos, documents (Keynote, Pages, and Numbers), and music, and other apps' data to iCloud. Users can start their work on one device and continue on another device. By default, users will get 5 gigabytes of storage for free, but this space will be expandable via subscription. source: http://en.wikipedia.org
