The new iPhone 6 features the iOS 8 which showcases a wide array of new features. However, while fans may get excited over the thought of getting more, there are a few apps that might end up not getting used at all.

Here are some features on the new iOS that you probably will not find necessary.

1. Predictive keyboard

The new Apple predictive keyboard can learn from your manner of typing and can attempt to suggest words that you will most likely write next. It is supposed to aid you when writing long text messages. However, the keyboard might be very intelligent that it can even predict the rest of your password once you start typing the first characters, divulging your secret. In a report by Popularmechanics.com, you can shut off the predictive keyboard by switching off the predictive setting after going to "Settings" then "General" then "Keyboard." You may also turn off other keyboard features like autocorrect, spell check and auto-capitalization.

2. Parallax

The feature started in iOS 7, which gives your home screen a 3D appearance when you move the iPhone from side to side. However, the feature tends to use up more of your battery and also makes some people dizzy. You can switch it off or reduce motion in "Accessibility."

3. Health app

The app is supposed to help users track medical data and find suggestions for health care. However, many find it as useless as the Stocks app, in a report by Macworld. You can put in a folder containing all other apps you rarely use.

4. Spotlight Search

The new feature provides you with more thorough search results than usual but you might discover that some of these are not related to the specific subject you are aiming for. You may limit the type of content posted, at the same time getting more search results, by unchecking certain types in the "Spotlight Search" options such as audiobooks and voice memos.

5. App alerts

A new iPhone usually has the problem of constantly alerting the user regarding an app running in the background. The feature will ask whether you wish for the app to continue. Go to "Settings" then "General" then "Backround App Refresh" to go through the apps and determine which will be refreshed in the background and which ones should be taken out.

Of course, there are certain professions or detail-loving individuals who will appreciate these apps. To each his own, right? Is there any other general iOS app you think you can already do away with? Tell us in the comments!
