At the “Time Flies”
event, Apple reminded people that the iPhone, iPad, and Apple TV are ready to
be launched. Hence, soon they’re going to get updates regarding iPadOS 14 and
iOS 14 along with the watchOS and tvOS updates.
Apparently, the app
developers are yet to receive the complete GM (golden master) builds of the
respective updates. Basically, they even seemed rushed as no one had any clue
where it was headed. By the end, all we could figure out was that new devices
are on their way or if we can say Apple is going to release iOS 14, iPadOS 14, watchOS 14, tvOS 14 on September 16!
We also found out that,
in
iOS14, the home screen will have all the apps pulled into a new App
library. You’ll also have a picture-in-picture mode (but you’ve already seen
that in iPads)!
Oh,
there’s another app known as the Translation app. Furthermore, in iPadOS14, you
can’t put widgets wherever you feel like, but you can do a variety of things
with it using the Apple Pencil. Hence, with the scribbling feature, you can
“write by hand in any text field across iPadOS, and your words automatically
convert to text”. So, there’s an
expanded menu and a bigger screen on its way.
These updates are great
for messaging as you can pin conversations and mentions. You can also highlight
directions on Maps, enhance the privacy options, and redesign the Music app,
etc.
