iOS 13 Coming with Incredible New Details

Over the years, Apple has always used its annual WWDC event to announce new improvements and features of its upcoming model of the iOS mobile operating system; iOS then being launched a few months after that year’s iPhones. The event is scheduled for June 3 and iOs 13 is anticipated to be the core of the event, meaning there is not an incredible long waiting time until we can find out all the details about the iOS 13.

Rumors have already started to fly all over the internet with the idea of what could be part of iOS 13 look set. A particular report says that iOS 13 will probably have a system-wide dark mode, application tabs and a new undo gesture, as well as significant reconstructed interface for iPads.

There is also the batch of Animoji sprites we are awaiting to see in the iOS 13. The company has already given us a preliminary view of the 230 new characters which are being added to the collection, but a new leak apparently implies that four more characters could be added along. Apple developer Steven Troughton-Smith declared that users of the latest version of iPhone will soon be enabled to get into the head of a cow, octopus, mouse and surprisingly enough, an emoji face.

Although the last one seems like it would give users a lot of fun, it’s the mouse Animoji some are rather fond of. Apple has collaborated in the past with Disney so it could bring its users branded content, as the Apple Watch already have Mickey Mouse and Minnie Mouse’s faces. It would be exciting to see what kind of mouse Animoji it will be: a mouse or one of the Disney’s favorite characters.

The Animoji feature is accessible on the iPhone X, the latest iPhone XS, XS Max and iPhone XR, as well as on the latest iPad Pro.

iOS 13 Will Integrate More Third-Party Apps to Siri

iOS 13 is planning to allow developers to integrate third-party applications into Siri. This means that the additional third-party apps will include new use cases. We are talking about features like media playback, voice calls, search, message attachments, event ticketing, flights, airport gate and seat information, train trips, and many more. Guilherme Rambo is saying that other developer features will come to iOS 13.

About What Third-Party Apps Are We Talking?

There will be several significant improvements to iOS. For example, iOS apps are ported to Mac through Apple’s Marzipan platform. By doing this, users will be able to take advantage of the MacBook Pro’s Touch Bar, the keyboard shortcuts, and multiple windows. The integration of iOS to Mac is the same as the iPad support to an iPhone app.

Moreover, Apple’s ARKit is getting improvements as well. With the help of augmented reality (AR) development framework, a lot of new features will be included. The developers are allowed to create AR experience visually and to go bigger, even a Swift-powered development framework for AR.

iOS 13 Will Be Revealed This Summer

Furthermore, developers will have access to other development frameworks like the Taptic Engine, or document scanning. The most exciting feature will be the ability to bring photos into the app from SD cards, and this could be realized without importing then to Apple’s photo app first. Also, NFC will receive significant improvements and the ability for third-party developers to read ISO7816, FeliCa, or MiFare tags. Some extensions will be improved to certain apps on the Mac, like Dropbox to integrate with Finder.

Finally, Apple will reveal iOS 13, tvOS 13, MacOS 10.15 and WatchOS 6 on June 3 with the WWDC keynote address. After that developers will get immediate access to the first beta, and the public betas will come later to the members of the open program. The final version could be released in September.

iOS 13 Could Bring Significant Improvements To iPad Tablets

Apple has declared countless times that the iPad can replace conventional laptops. That is partly true since the potential is there, but a few changes are needed before the iPad can compete with the big players, including the MacBook. In most cases, an iPhone can handle the same tasks at a faster rate, and many users prefer the snappier experience, a fact which leaves the iPad stranded somewhere in the middle of the road between entertainment device and productivity tools (a classic jack-of-all-trades situation). The case could change drastically when iOS 13 arrives.

Below you can find a list of iOS 13 features which have the potential to make the iPad better.

iOS 13 can make the iPad become a real substitute for laptops

Dark Mode in iOS 13

Those who own a MacBook can enjoy the dark mode which arrived with macOS Majove. It is likely that Apple will add the long-awaited feature to iOS, a move which has the potential to make lots of fans happy.

Refreshed Files app

The Files app is working well, but it does miss a few features. A revamped app would make the user experience better, while also boosting the productivity capabilities of the device.

Increase the multitasking performance iPad with iOS 13

While side-by-side multitasking is quite enjoyable, it is time to aim higher. The next update should allow each app to show at least two files simultaneously. For example, users should have the option to compare and edit two Word files at the same time, a feat which would be quite impressive.

Improved support for external displays

Users can connect their iPads to a larger display, but the potential is wasted by the fact that you can’t do too much. Yes, you can mirror the screen on the second device and enjoy Netflix on a bigger screen, but this isn’t too impressive. There are several productivity features which could be added to iOS 13, including the ability to move applications to the other display.

It remains to be seen if any of these features will make an appearance when Apple releases the new version of the popular operating system, the iOS 13.

iPhone 11 With iOS 13 Dark Mode Revealed in New Renders

Lately, almost every app, video streaming platform, and even some websites are sporting a sort of a dark mode, sometimes also called dark theme or night mode. Dark mode, therefore, became a very popular feat nowadays. And some rumors emerged over the Internet saying that iOS 13 would come out with a dark theme included. To get a glimpse of how that might look like, here are some new renders showing the upcoming iPhone 11 with iOS 13 dark mode.

In the smartphone market, since more and more devices boast OLED technology, the displays ability to create exact black nuances generated the struggle of the smartphone, operating system, and app manufacturers to come up with the perfect dark mode. While some users consider the so-called night mode useless, in reality, it might be helpful.

First, a dark mode would reduce the strain of staring at a bright screen in low-light conditions. Secondly, a dark mode would also lower battery consumption since it’s less demanding for the displays to show darker colors than bright ones.

iPhone 11 With iOS 13 Dark Mode Revealed in New Renders

Thanks to Phone Arena, we can now see how an iPhone 11 with iOS 13 dark mode looks like in new renders. “We thought we’d let the creative juices flow and imagine what the new Dark Mode could look like in iOS 13, on the iPhone XI (a.k.a iPhone 11, because who knows – Roman numerals could have been an anniversary-only thing for Apple). Anyway, here’s what we’d like to see from the new Dark Mode in iOS 13,” Phone Arena reported.

This new iOS 13 dark mode imagined on iPhone 11 by Phone Arena doesn’t “just inverts whites, also subdues and limits other colors as much as possible. For example, instead of using solid, colorful toggles for various settings when they are enabled, a colorful outline can convey just as much information, without emitting unnecessary light.”

In the end, we have to admit that iPhone 11 with iOS 13 dark mode looks impressive. It’s changing the user experience, nonetheless, but we also hope that Apple will come up with other significant changes in its upcoming iOS 13.

iOS 13 Would Get System-Wide Dark Mode, And, Now, Here’s How It Might Look Like

While at the moment the only method to get the dark theme on iOS devices is to activate the so-called “smart invert” feature, but it is problematic, for the time being. Reportedly, iOS 13 would come out with a system-wide dark mode. Now, here’s how it might look like.

iOS 13 To Receive a System-Wide Dark Mode

Now, that Mac devices got their system-wide dark mode thanks to the latest macOS Mojave version, it is the right time for iOS-based smartphones and tablets to get a similar mode. As reported by XDA-Developers, iOS 13 might come with a system-wide dark mode of its own.

According to a report from Bloomberg, the dark mode in iOS 13 would roll out across all the iPhone and iPad applications, meaning that common apps like dialer, contacts, iMessages, and Settings, as well as the menus, would get the upcoming dark theme. Also, the article on Bloomberg said that the dark mode would also support the main third-party apps on iOS 13.

Here’s How The Dark Mode in iOS 13 Might Look Like

Now, we don’t know for sure how Apple thought the upcoming iOS 13 dark mode, but we can get a glimpse of how it might look like thanks to a one-year-old iOS 12 concept. As we know, iOS 12 is not boasting a system-wide dark theme, so the concept might still apply to iOS 13, the mobile operating system that Apple plans to launch in fall 2019.

Nonetheless, the dark mode is beneficial for users and, as Google and other tech companies, even Apple, are already implementing it in some of their apps, programs, and products, the Cupertino-based company might also add it to iOS 13 as it has already done it in macOS Mojave. The dark mode helps users reduce the strain of staring at a bright screen, while it can also save the devices’ battery since the screens consume less power to display dark color than when showing bright ones.

Here is the iOS 12 concept that offers us a preview of how the dark mode on iOS 13 might look like:
