Similarities through iOS 5
iPhone OS 1 is very similar to iOS 4 and 5. It lacked many features, such as Notification Center, Multitasking and Reminders. The user interface was different, with the the lack of a 3D-like dock, the lack of an App Store, and no Main Screen wallpapers. The OS was faster and simpler than today's, but at the time it was considered revolutionary.
