Apple unveiled the iOS 12 this month at the WWDC (Worldwide
Developer Conference) and it's bringing in a lot of new features as well as
fixes. With this update, the company is improving the experience and the
underlying software rather than focusing on new features and UI. “For iOS 12,
we are doubling down on performance,” said software VP Craig Federighi. The
update will be available for all the devices that received iOS 11.
Here's our complete rundown of everything we know that's
coming with iOS 12!
1. Speed and Stability:
Apple has promised that iPhone users will see sizeable speed
improvements, including for smartphones as old as 2013's iPhone 5S. Apple said
it has improved performance all over iOS, so things should be at least a little
quicker day to day.
iOS 12 instantly ramps up CPU clock speeds, instead of
slowly increasing it to their peak speeds. It also decreases fast to save on
battery life as well. Federighi said that in Apple's tests on an iPhone 6 Plus,
apps launch 40 percent faster, the system keyboard comes up 50 percent faster,
and opening the camera is 70 percent faster.
2. Deeper Battery Insights:
The battery monitoring option has been pretty basic until
now, Apple intends to take this a level further by showing more data in graphs
as to which app is taking up maximum power. Using these analytics, not only
does the phone itself makes a lot of changes to improve battery life but even
the user gets a clear idea of what's sucking the most juice.
The interface also has been revamped and includes new
charts, breakdowns, and graphs.
3. Phone Usage Statistics:
Following Google's lead, Apple is also making efforts to
help people curb their addictions to their phones. A new tool called Screen
Time generates periodic Activity Reports of the phone usage. It keeps a track
of everything, the amount of time you use an app, the category of apps you use,
the number of notifications you receive, and more.
A new feature, Downtime is also coming along with Screen
Time that lets parents monitor the usage by their kids. Parents can see their
child's Activity Report on their own iOS devices, as well as set and manage App
Limits for them.
4. A Smarter Photos App:
Google Photos has been an amazing companion on Android, the
smart algorithm can go through pictures and sort or categorize them
automatically. A similar assistant is now coming to the built-in Photos App on
iOS.
Apple said it has also improved search within photos with
suggestions to help users find pictures from recent events, people, and places.
It also features suggested sharing so that one can share full-sized photos with
people without having to manually collect and sending them.
5. Autofill Passwords:
Two Factor Authentication has become pretty much standard
now and highly recommended for everyone. When logging in, you will no longer
have to copy the passcode separately, it will be directly delivered to the
keyboard as an AutoFill option.
Apple is also bringing in support for third-party password
managers, the QuickType toolbar above your keyboard will show you suggestions
for your password from third-party password managers.
