We recently saw some videos showing us the new features in iOS 13 beta 5 and now we have one which gives us a look at what is new in iPadOS beta 5.
The iPadOS beta 5 and iOS 13 beta 5 are essentially the same software, the iPadOS version comes with some features which are only available on the iPad, these have been designed specifically for the iPad.
As we can see from the video there are a number of new features in the latest beta of iPadOS, including the new Dark Mode, Apple Maps, an updated photos app and much more.
New Features in iPadOS Beta 5
One of the standout features in iPadOS beta 5 is the new Dark Mode. This feature provides a darker color scheme that is easier on the eyes, especially in low-light environments. Dark Mode can be enabled through the settings and can also be scheduled to turn on and off automatically based on the time of day.
Another significant update is the revamped Apple Maps. The new version of Apple Maps includes more detailed maps, better road coverage, and improved pedestrian data. This makes navigation more accurate and reliable, whether you’re driving or walking.
The Photos app has also received a substantial update. The new Photos app includes a redesigned interface that makes it easier to browse and organize your photos. It also includes new editing tools that allow you to make more precise adjustments to your photos.
Additional Enhancements and Improvements
Beyond these major updates, iPadOS beta 5 includes several other enhancements designed to improve the overall user experience. For instance, the Home Screen has been optimized to allow for more app icons, and users can now pin widgets directly to the Home Screen for quick access to important information.
Multitasking has also been improved with new gestures and the ability to open multiple windows of the same app. This makes it easier to work on multiple tasks simultaneously, enhancing productivity.
Safari has received updates as well, including a new download manager and improved tab management. These features make browsing the web more efficient and user-friendly.
As this is the fifth beta of the software, it won’t be long before the final version is released. We are expecting to see one or two more betas before the final version lands. It is expected to be released sometime in September along with iOS 13.
The anticipation for the final release is high, as these updates promise to make the iPad even more versatile and powerful. With features like Dark Mode, enhanced Apple Maps, and a revamped Photos app, iPadOS is shaping up to be a significant upgrade.
