At WWDC 2016, Apple took announced an all new iOS 10, watchOS 3, a renamed and improved macOS Sierra, and tvOS 10. It won’t work with third-party apps, but you can use it to do desktop-specific tasks like searching for files and copy and pasting images from web searches. This feature will turn on the display when the phone is moved from its position. Swift Playgrounds makes coding easy and nearly game-like with an interactive interface for the easy-to-learn Swift programming language from Apple.

Apple has always successfully courted the “millennial” demographic with its products, but the news at the tail-end of this financial quarter that the company had suffered a 16 per cent sales decline suggested that, for the first time in over a decade, they were failing to continue their extraordinary forwards momentum with their iterative mobile updates. Handwritten text will allow you to forego messaging entirely, instead sending your friends little notes you’ve scribbled with your finger, while “invisible ink” blurs a message that will only be revealed when the recipient wipes their finger across it.
Siri is about to get its biggest upgrade ever. Now it’s up to developers to take advantage of those improvements and start making useful experiences for the Apple Watch. While apps for Apple’s service will be easy to get to even from the Notifications screen, Facebook apps will not. That’s great for a kind of viral spread of apps as people share and create content for each other.
Apple has killed Glances and replaced it with a much more sensible Control Center, just like on iOS. Apple calls this new technique “Auto unlock” which requires users to keep wearing Apple Watch.
Finally, Apple mentioned much about Siri throughout the WWDC but there is much development required for the voice-powered interface.
Android users would know what we are talking about. This is another feature that has been a part of the Google Photos app. It is quite likely that the new iOS uses the 1000 based counting system rather than the 1024 based system because 113.46 GB equals 121.83 GB if you use the alternate system. They won’t see the message and at best will feel sad to be unable to see it and at worst will think you’re being arrogant in your Apple love. So I guess we have to wait and see on this.
