So iOS 14 has finally
been revealed at WWDC 2020 and we have listed all the features that would be
present in the software.

One news that we are
most excited about is that Apple is bringing widgets to the home screen on its
devices. Widgets are available in different sizes and right now, you can see
them in the Today view. In iOS 14, however, the widget is present on the main screen
and lives right alongside other applications. Apple has created a widget
gallery on the screen and that will allow you to customize them according to
your wish.
A new “App Library” has
also been added to the update and this means your apps will automatically be
organized into groups and lists. With the new view, all your applications would
not be on display and would instead be secure in a folder present on the home
screen. It is quite similar to the app drawer that Android launched earlier.

The new system-wide
picture-in-picture feature has also been making headlines in the tech world as
this is something a lot of people were expecting from Apple. Just like macOS,
you will now be able to stream videos while carrying out other operations on
your phones.
Siri also contains a
new view on iOS 14. Right now, Siri takes over your entire screen when you
activate the assistant but with the new update, a small overlay at the bottom
of the display will be enough to activate Siri. The digital assistant can also
send audio messages along with dictated messages now.
Apple has also
introduced a new Translation application just like Google Translate. So now
if you type in a message, you will be able to translate them into 11 languages
namely English, Mandarin Chinese, French, German, Spanish, Italian, Japanese,
Korean, Arabic, Portuguese and Russian.

iOS 14 will be launched
in the fall and we are all desperately waiting on the new updates as this time,
Apple has worked really hard to make the operations of the software smooth for
the users. The update will work on the iPhone6S and up.
