Apple showcased its iOS12 during its WWDC Conference in June 2018 for the first time. Now, its final version has been rolled out. So, let’s know what unique features does it have.
Screen Time
I think all of us desperately need a little digital detox and this what the idea behind screen time. This feature helps you know the total screen time on a daily basis as well as on what apps you are spending more time. You can also set a time limit for yourself. Social networking can be a good place to start with. This feature allows you to make a group of apps with the same nature and you can set your limit. Once you touch the pre-set limit, the app icon greys out and you will see a small hourglass. You can also enable downtime and this will notify you to go off the screen. You can only pick calls during the downtime.
Shortcuts
The motif behind shortcuts was to save time and to automize the daily routine. This concept is similar to the third party app IFTTT App. The only difference is it works with Siri as well. Once a shortcut is created, Siri can execute it. For instance, to enable ‘Do Not Disturbed Mode’ you can tell Siri that you are heading to a meeting. For instant access, you can add shortcut widgets. Soon, you would be able to add support of the developers for shortcuts.
Taking Measurement Is Now Easy
You do not have to look for a tape for taking measurements. Your iPhone will do it for you through an app called Measure. This app gives you a view through the camera. You cans set the viewpoints and measure the distance between the two. Viewpoints get easily locked when they meet the edges. As soon as you start following the direction, you will realize that it’s working correctly.
Compatibility
iOS 12 is now available for those devices which were launched after 2013. For instance, iPhone 6/6 Plus, iPhone 6S/6S Plus, iPhone SE, iPhone 7/7 Plus and new phones like iPhone 8/8 Plus, iPhone X/XR/XS/XS Max iOS 12 is available.
In iPad, this version is available in iPad Mini 2/3/4, Air/Air2 and is there in all new iPads. Users can get its benefits due to the wide range of its compatibility.
Easy Notifications
One of the unique features include, iOS 12 create a group of all notification and this enables you to check the bunch in one go rather than checking every notification for every app. To expand, you can press or to dismiss all the same can be done from one app. If you swipe left, you can choose whether to continue such notifications to be delivered or to be paused. You can control an app presents which type of notification from settings.
Bed Time
You must be acquainted with the ‘Do Not Disturb Mode’ if you are an iPhone user. iOS 12 is one step ahead. It allows you to set the time of your to sleep as well as to get up. You simply have to go to settings and switch toggle on. This will not allow any notification to light up the screen once you enable bed time. The screen will go dim and the phone will not ring or notify you. If you keep your phone close to your bed during your sleep then it won’t allow the phone to wake up with bright lights. Hence, you can have a sound sleep. This feature can be very useful in the current time.
