In the recent year, Apple has released its latest and fabulous operating system iOS 12. Though it has been anticipated that the ultimate version of this operating system won’t be accessible till the coming month September, Cupertino, the company based in California has unveiled the 8th public beta for the same in August. All the iOS 12 users are now entitled to install this top-notch operating system to evaluate the latest features. However, it is worth noting that the updated features are yet in beta only and prior to its ultimate release, there are some minor issues that are still to be resolved. The new Emojis and Animojis, ARkit 2.0, Group face time, Siri Shortcuts, and Do Not Disturb are some of its major benefits to name a few. Still wondering about the top-most features of iOS 12, here I am presenting 12 essential factors you could avail in this latest update:

1. Devices will get back to use

Apple DeviceAs per Craig Federighi, Apple’s executive, there exist only a few Android users that prefer opting for the latest operating system compared to the iOS users. According to the recent surveys, a total of 81% of recent iOS devices have been utilizing iOS 11. On the other hand, just 6% of Android users prefer to have Oreo. iOS 12 is predicted to support the models that were designed in 2013 such as iPhone 5, and moreover, it has been designed to enhance their functioning.

2. Users can roll their very own AR objects

The latest open file format, usdz, definitely makes it quite effortless to have AR almost everywhere in iOS. Apple, giving a demo of a Fender Guitar that is tailored in Safari displayed how the users are entitled to place it in a corner of their room, to examine if the same is complementing your wallpaper.

3. ARKit 2 to share multiplayer

Apple ARKit 2Some of the AR games such as Smash tanks allow multiplayer option; however, the game is bit trickery as every individual has to play it on their very own region. But now, iOS 12 features supports the multiplayer gaming in ARKIT 2 that facilitates completely determined multiplayer experiences attached to particular arena and objects.

4. Sharing the memories has become easy

Having customized options in Music, a personalized and easy sharing opportunity is going to launch for photos. Though it offers filter suggestions, it’s completely about accessing and sharing your most favorite moments with your beloved people. If you have enjoyed an amazing evening out there with your people, it will rummage through your pictures, formulate an album, and would give the certain suggestion of the people you can share the album with on the basis of facial recognition of the individuals present in the photo.

Now, another interesting fact is that: if the people you’re sharing the photos with operate iOS 12 then their set would search for the pertinent images to share it with you and so every person gets all the photos they clicked in multiple iOS mobiles (an amazing feature for essential events like wedding ceremony, isn’t it?).

5. Siri shortcuts are available

Siri ShortcutSiri has now become elegant with its advanced features. Now you can easily set a timer to get a reminder of specific tasks. For instance, placing an order of your morning tea while you’re too busy with your tasks to remember it on your own or pushing you to connect and message your team member when you’ve got late for your important meeting.

6. Voice Memo is now directing to iPad

It has always been a puzzling stuff that various Apple iPhone devices have never proven to be effective enough in making across the iPad. Probably, as per the Apple’s claim, iPad users aren’t well interested in calculators and weather forecasts. In spite of this, using iOS 12 they could avail Voice Memos.

7. iBooks have now turned into Apple Books

Apple BookOne of the major modifications that Apple couldn’t cover on is the redesigning of its iBooks. Its gossips have been spreading for a past few months. The app would be remade without i (turning to Apple books to match up with other applications such as Apple news, Apple music, and so on).

8. Do not disturb mode

iOS 12 is featuring the latest feature known as Do Not Disturb mode using which the users can only use their handset to check the time while the DND mode is on. So if you’re suffering from a habit of using your mobile the whole night then DND mode can aid you to get rid of the same with an ease. Activating this mode won’t let your mobile to display any message, call, or other notification while you’re busy with your work or sleeping. You can easily turn on the normal mode in the morning when you’re ready to check the dozens of notifications.

9. Enjoy a FaceTime with more than 31 people at once

People have desperately been waiting for the group communication that supports multiple users at once and fortunately, iOS 12 have made this dream come true. It supports the audio and video calls of 32 people at one time.

10. The notifications have turned smarter

iOS 12 NotificationOne of the major drawbacks of Apple has been its system notification that always lags behind Androids. Though as per the recent reports, the iOS notification system is still comparatively less significant than that of the Android handset, they are easy to operate. Notifications can now easily be grouped under the applications. You can also avail the instant management feature to avoid the unwanted app’s bugging.

11. It helps you to ascertain the time you’ve operated your phone

If you’ve suddenly realized that it has been over a week, you’re continuously using your Apple rather than accomplishing your essential day to day tasks, screen time feature of iOS 12 is there to remind you. Tracking the apps you’ve been using and screening the amount of data you’ve already used scrolling down the Instagram posts can definitely help you to identify which application is consuming most of your precious hours. Besides that, the iOS 12 users can now limit the time of their kids using this operating system.

12. Memojis in iOS 12 have turned better
