App Transport Security or ATS is a feature debuted by Cupertino in the iOS 9 release. Even though all features are unavailable with the current beta but all upcoming iOS 10 betas will include all features, even for non 3D Touch devices.
The app itself will remain within iOS 10, but it won’t be seen on the home screen or anywhere else within a device. A later version of iOS 10 beta will also let you remove the News app.
While it is disappointing that you can’t actually delete an app from your device, Apple insists that the bundled stock apps don’t take up more than 150MB of space on your device. The Reddit user, MaGNeTiX, wrote in the post that after parking his vehicle at home a notification popped up on his device screen with details about where the auto was being parked.
iOS 10 won’t signal the end of pre-loaded stock apps afterall. Some of the apps that can be removed from the iOS 10 are Calculator, Calendar, iCloud Drive, Watch App, Weather, Music, News, iTunes Store, and Facetime.
Well, Apple announced that Siri will not be accessible to the public for a few months.
Apple’s AI assistant Siri is also receiving a big upgrade which will allow it to be integrated with third-party apps.
VoIP support in the Phone app will be welcomed by users of such services, particularly for calls that aren’t included in the relevant mobile plan.

“If you open up Home, you’ll see all your HomeKit-compatible accessories, no matter which company makes them, and you can easily control them all from one hub”, according to the Macworld website. The not so good news is that you’ll need to enrol in the Apple Developer Program, which requires a payment of $100 (about £69, AU$140).
