10 Apps (or Services) Apple Just Killed with iOS 5

10 Apps (or Services) Apple Just Killed with iOS 5 -

iOS 5 new features

The WWDC 2011 keynote is now just a memory -- but it may be a particular painful one for many third-party developers who are watching as Apple incorporates some of their functionality into the forthcoming iOS 5.

The Worldwide Developers Conference is an odd place for Apple to make a splash with new features that effectively kill off the hard work of many of its wonderful third-party developers, but that’s exactly what appears to have happened today. While the company is adding more than 200 new features to iOS 5, they showed off only 10 of them at Monday’s keynote -- which was likely to kick off a sobering WWDC 2011 for many developers.

So who’s at risk of soon being extinct and how? We’re glad you asked. Here’s a look at just 10 of the apps who may have more in common with the dinosaurs when iOS 5 is released this fall.
