As for the iOS devices, Bing has tweaked the app for iPad to version 2.0, introducing a cleaner, simpler user interface to match Apple’s latest iOS7. It also sports the new Bing logo and color palette. The daily image saving ability also comes to iPad similar to Android. Other additions include improved maps search results, a Gift Finder Plus which lets you find appropriate gift ideas for family and friends just by answering a series of simple questions with “yes,” “no,” or “no idea.”
