Apple recently released their new iOS 13 GM, this is the final developer version of the software before next week’s release.
We have already seen a speed test of the iOS 13 Gold Master and now we have another video from Zollotech that gives us a look at what is new in the new iOS 13 GM.
As we can see from the video there are a number of new features in the Gold Master of iOS 13, this should be very close to the final software that will land next week.
New Features in iOS 13 GM
The iOS 13 GM brings a plethora of new features and improvements to enhance the user experience. One of the most anticipated features is the system-wide Dark Mode, which provides a sleek, dark color scheme that is easier on the eyes, especially in low-light environments. This feature can be toggled on and off manually or set to activate automatically based on the time of day.
Another significant update is the revamped Photos app, which now includes powerful new editing tools and an improved organization system. Users can now easily browse through their photo library with the new Days, Months, and Years views, which intelligently curate photos and videos to highlight the best moments.
Performance improvements are also a key focus in iOS 13 GM. Apple has optimized the software to make app launches faster, reduce app download sizes, and improve overall system responsiveness. Face ID is now up to 30% faster, making it quicker and more convenient to unlock your device and authenticate purchases.
Additional Enhancements and Updates
In addition to the major features, iOS 13 GM includes several smaller but impactful enhancements. The new QuickPath keyboard allows users to swipe across the keyboard to type, making one-handed typing more efficient. The Reminders app has been completely redesigned with a new look and advanced features like smart lists and enhanced Siri integration.
Privacy is another area where iOS 13 GM shines. Apple has introduced new privacy features, including the ability to control location data sharing with apps more precisely. Users can now choose to share their location with an app just once, and receive notifications when an app is using their location in the background.
Apple Maps has also received a significant update, with more detailed maps, improved navigation, and the new Look Around feature, which offers a street-level view similar to Google Street View. Additionally, the new Sign In with Apple feature provides a more secure and private way to sign in to apps and websites using your Apple ID.
Apple will be releasing the final version of iOS 13 next Thursday, the 13th of September. The software will be made available for the iPhone. It is also coming to the iPad as iPadOS, although this update will be released on the 30th of September. iPadOS will bring many of the same features as iOS 13, along with additional enhancements tailored specifically for the iPad, such as improved multitasking and a redesigned home screen.
