Earlier this week at the 2019 World Wide Developer Conference (WWDC), Apple released the next iteration of iOS for iPhones and a separate iPadOS for iPads. The updates bring with them several applications that have been rebuilt from scratch and several features that have been heavily redesigned. For example, iOS 13 now has a system-wide dark mode, improved keyboards with swipe functionality, improved Apple maps, a single sign-on feature, and more.
Here’s everything that’s coming for iOS 13.
On the other hand, iPadOS will now allow Apple to offer features that are particularly useful for the iPad, including multitasking features, including a split screen feature, Swipe and multitasking improvements, and also changes to the dock.
All the details about the iPadOS here.
Apps in iOS 13 will load twice as fast as before.
While these new features are exciting, what’s important to know is whether you really should be excited about them. Will your smartphone get all these new features? Or is it compatible to get at least some of them? Here is a list of all iPhones compatible with iOS 13 and iPad models compatible with the new iPadOS.
