Apple's iOS 12, the latest version of advanced mobile operating system
(OS) and the successor to iOS 11 which is said to make daily tasks
faster and more responsive, is now available globally.
The latest
OS promises to bring performance improvements across the system and to
more devices than any previous version, thus, supporting iPhone 5s that
was introduced in 2013.
"Available as a free software update,
iOS 12 introduces new augmented reality (AR) experiences, fun new
features like Memoji, Siri Shortcuts that open up a world of apps to
work with Siri and new tools to help people reduce interruptions and
manage screen time for themselves and their families," the iPhone maker
said in a statement late on Monday.
The Cupertino-based giant
said with iOS 12, camera launches up to 70 per cent faster, the keyboard
appears up to 50 per cent faster and typing is more responsive.
"When there is a lot going on across the system, apps can launch up to twice as fast," the company added.
A
few new tools like "Screen Time" built into the iOS 12 help users
understand and take control of the time they spend interacting with
their devices.
This feature provides users with detailed
information and tools to help them manage the time they spend with apps
and websites and better understand and control where their child spends
time.
Another nifty addition is "Siri Shortcuts" that allows any app to now work with Apple's digital assistant Siri.
With powerful on-device intelligence, Siri learns user routines and provides suggestions at just the right time.
"Users
can also use their voice to run any shortcut, making it even easier to
use their favourite apps. The new shortcuts app goes even further,
allowing users to create custom shortcuts to streamline frequent tasks,"
the company said.
