Home Screen
Get instant access to whatever you need. The Home screen takes you to any feature, application, or Web Clip on iPod touch. And no two Home screens are alike. That’s because you can customize yours with whatever applications and Web Clips you choose.
Music
If a picture says a thousand words, think of what all the album art in your collection might say. With Cover Flow on iPod touch, flick through your music to find the album you want to hear. When you do, just tap the cover to flip it over and display a track list. Another tap starts the music. Even view the lyrics while you're listening to the track.
Video
The 3.5-inch display gives you video like you’ve never seen on a portable device. Watch your favorite movie or rental from the iTunes Store. Catch up on TV shows anywhere. Enjoy video podcasts. Play music videos. All using Multi-Touch touchscreen technology. With a tap, bring up onscreen controls to play/pause and view by chapter. Turn your iPod touch to switch between widescreen and full screen.
iTunes Wi-Fi Music Store
With iPod touch, discover new music anywhere. Its built-in wireless capability gives you access to iTunes, where you can buy songs with a tap. Browse New Releases, What’s Hot, Genres, and Top Tens. Or find exactly what you’re looking for with a quick search. Tap a song to preview it, tap Buy to purchase it. Even redeem your iTunes gift cards and gift certificates. From any Wi-Fi hot spot.
The App Store
Hundreds of iPod touch applications in almost every category — games, social networking, sports, photography, reference, and travel — are a tap away at the App Store. Many are even free. Download them directly onto your iPod touch over a Wi-Fi network and start using them right away. The App Store is part of the iPhone 2.0 Software Update for iPod touch.* Learn more
Safari
iPod touch is the only iPod with wireless access to the web. Safari is built in, so you see websites the way they were designed to be seen. Search the web using the touchscreen keyboard. Zoom in and out by tapping the Multi-Touch touchscreen display. Switch between portrait and landscape view, depending on how you hold your iPod touch. Sync your bookmarks. Better yet, add them to your Home screen. iPod touch can create a Web Clip on your Home screen from any of your favorite websites. So just one tap takes you directly there.
iPod touch is the first iPod with email. And it's the best email you've ever seen on a handheld device. The Mail application on iPod touch lets you view rich HTML email with graphics and photos displayed inline, as well as PDF, Microsoft Word, Microsoft Excel, Microsoft PowerPoint, and iWork attachments.
Maps
Get directions and check traffic with Maps. Even find yourself, wherever you are. Using some local Wi-Fi networks (if Wi-Fi is turned on), iPod touch finds your approximate location and gives directions from there. Mark specific locations, find the best route between them, and search for points of interest along the way. With a hybrid map and satellite view, you can see major street names on top of satellite images.
Maps, directions, and location information depend on data collected by third parties. These data services are subject to change and may not be available in all geographic areas, resulting in maps, directions, or location information that may be unavailable, inaccurate, or incomplete.
YouTube
Got a bit of a YouTube addiction? iPod touch feeds it from anywhere with a special YouTube player built right in. Watch featured videos, check out the most viewed, search for something specific, then bookmark your favorites for future reference. It’s all the fun of YouTube — pocket-sized.
Photos
iPod touch holds up to 25,000 photos you sync via iTunes. Flick to scroll through thumbnails. Tap to view full screen. Rotate for landscape format. Or perform some sleight of hand by opening two fingers to zoom in. You can even play slideshows, complete with music and transitions. Set any photo as your wallpaper to personalize your iPod touch . . . with a touch.
Calendar
iPod touch makes it easy to make plans. The built-in Calendar stays with you wherever you go, works with a tap, and syncs seamlessly to the calendar application on your computer.
Add events.
Keep your schedule at your fingertips with iPod touch. Add events to your calendar. Set a custom alert. Even write a note or two. All with a few taps.

Multi-Touch
iPod touch features the same revolutionary interface as iPhone. Built to take full advantage of the large 3.5-inch display, the Multi-Touch touchscreen interface lets you control everything using only your fingers. So you can glide through albums with Cover Flow, flick through photos and enlarge them with a pinch, or zoom in and out on a section of a web page. And iPod touch features a touchscreen QWERTY keyboard perfect for browsing the web in Safari, getting directions on a map, searching for videos on YouTube, finding music on the iTunes Wi-Fi Music Store, or adding new contacts.
Zoom in and out using just your fingers.
Wireless
Connect to the Internet anywhere there's a Wi-Fi network. Send email from a coffee shop. Surf the web at the airport. Browse, buy, and download music from the iTunes Wi-Fi Music Store at select Starbucks locations or other wireless hot spots in your area. iPod touch finds wireless networks and connects you to the Internet.
Accelerometer
An accelerometer detects when you rotate iPod touch from portrait to landscape, then automatically changes the contents of the display, so you immediately see the entire width of a web page, your music in Cover Flow, or a photo in its proper aspect ratio.
