Apple has revealed iOS 11, bringing in a suite of updated features and a smarter Siri. Evidently, Apple has a lot of catching up to do. At this very moment, all we care about are all of the awesome new features Apple showed off in iOS 11, because we don't have to wait another second to get our hands on them.
CEO Tim Cook kicked off Apple's annual conference for software programmers on Monday. Apple is also expected to announce a new wireless keyboard with a touch bar built in.A 10.5-inch iPad ProAn update to the iPad Pro is expected. The 12-24 hour window when they were removed has not been explained by Apple but it could be deciphered as an indication to developers to update their apps or be left behind, or it could have simply been an error on the company's part.
This will improve how Pokemon Go works on your iPhone, but it should also encourage developers to create more AR experiences for Apple devices too.
Topping them would be clues to the next iPhone.
Apple says the feature will be able to detect when an iPhone user is moving in a auto, though users can set favourite contacts that are still able to reach them even when the feature is enabled.
Apple is also updating the operating software for its Apple Watch, including new watch faces, more personalized alerts that use machine learning to tailor information to you based on your routines and tastes. It would be Apple's first new product since its smartwatch in 2015. HDR video, ultralow relectavity, 600 nits brightness, a wide color gamut, and True Tone display have been added to this new iPad.
It also enhanced its workout app to, for instance, support high intensity interval training. MusicKit gives Apple Music a competing developer platform to Spotify's range of APIs and SDKs that similarly let paid subscribers bring their music collection and all of Spotify's songs to other apps.
The mobile operating system will also get a new file management system that is much more closely aligned with the traditional file systems found on desktop and laptop computers. Many rumours point to Apple releasing an all new model with a 10.5-inch screen with the same physical dimensions of the 9.7-inch iPad Pro.
The watch can communicate with some gym equipment to share data between the two - like your heart rate or the treadmill's incline.
This year we may finally see Amazon Video and Vudu to the Apple TV.
Apple Inc on Monday (local time) introduced the HomePod, a voice-controlled speaker that can make music suggestions and adjust home temperatures, taking aim at Amazon.com Inc's Alexa feature and Echo devices.
