It can even help you downgrade from an iOS beta like this one. Click the link in the description for more details and special things to reboot to sponsor 905 Mac ok ladies and gentlemen boys and girls this is what we have been waiting for iOS 13 is here let's start with dark mode of course, the main feature of iOS 13 now, to enable dark mode just enter the settings and brightness screen there, under the appearance section just tap on dark and that's it, we have a new dark mode enabled, you saw the Dark Settings app , now you see the darker wallpaper, we can go.

Back here, go back to light mode like this and you can see the Settings app lights up again and you also get your light wallpaper. Now that's not the only way to enable or disable dark mode, you can also do it through a control center. shortcuts, so you just tap this little switch here and that quickly switches you between light and dark mode, so super simple, super easy, so you see the dark wallpaper there and now you see the light wallpaper, but, Of course, that's not the only way. You can also use Siri, so you can just ask to turn on dark mode and dark mode is enabled like this and of course you can do the opposite, you can say turn off dark mode like this, in dark mode it is disabled, so there are many ways to enable or disable dark mode now with iOS 13 you get four new wallpapers and these, as you can see, are special because they have a light and a dark mode built right into the wallpaper, so that we change to blue.

You saw a clear way here. it's dark mode for blue wallpaper and again there is light mode here is our green light mode and dark mode goes back to light almost there we go there is light and then here is my new favorite wallpaper the wallpaper black wears a light mode there is a dark mode I think it looks fantastic with those colored icons, but there is something very interesting here, even if you don't use one of those for special wallpapers, you can still take advantage of dark mode to some extent. Now you can use wallpaper when dark mode is on. enabled, so all you need to do is enable that little switch and watch what happens.

I'm going to ask Siri to go ahead and enable dark mode. Now look at how it dims like this, you see the spring at the bottom gets darker as well. like it normally does, but the point is that you can dim any wallpaper even if it's not one of the four special wallpapers. This is what's really interesting about dark mode, how it affects apps so you see the reminders app. A really beautiful dark mode for reminders. It's dark here. mode for notes and again, these are all built-in apps go back to light mode open the calendar let's switch to dark mode you see that beautiful dark interface on your calendar and dark mode really shows its greatness every time you use your iPhone in a low light environment light or in a dark environment, it will be much easier on your eyes because you don't have that bright white light shining directly into your eyes, so dark mode definitely has its practical applications besides looking cool, but it also works with third-party apps also for those developers who have updated their apps of course to support dark mode when said app is chibi studio, we also have P calc which is my favorite Apple and iOS calculator and it looks beautiful in that dark interface, you have others Apps like carrot, whether they support dark mode or fantastic card skip, also support dark mode and you feel dizzy, and there will be tons of apps available on the App Store that support dark mode. iOS 12 already had great performance, but iOS 13 claims to have it even better.

Performance, for example, when launching apps is supposed to be faster in iOS 13 and I found that to be true for the most part, although it's hard to measure it exactly in this unscientific test here, but just when launching apps they seem to be a bit faster on iOS 13. which is on the right versus iOS 12 on the left, but again I want to be fair, to be honest, it's a little difficult to accurately measure startup times when I just have both iPhones in my hand and tap the applications to start them. but I've used both extensively side by side and I will definitely say that Iowa's 13 seems a bit faster at launching apps and even if it's just a few milliseconds faster, that adds up over time, but let's talk about something I definitely noticed. and that's faster unlocking with Face ID. iOS 13 is definitely faster at unlocking your iPhone with Face ID, so I have both devices here turning them on.

You can see that iOS 13 on the right unlocks faster than I had 12 on the left again, not huge. difference, but it's a difference anyway, what do you guys think? With iOS 13, you get access to three new emoji characters, starting with Mouse, Octopus, and Cow, and like any other emoji, this one uses the real death camera on your iPhone to track. your face moves your expressions and transmits those expressions directly to drive the character on the screen, but you also have new features for MIMO G, so you have things like freckles, additional hairstyles, look at a ton of hairstyles here, but you also have additional things like for For example, tabs, so the new tabs you'll see all of them right there, but it doesn't stop there, there are also additional features like perforations, so you'll find different types of perforations and you'll get some really cool accessories for the years if you scroll down to the final. down below, you'll notice right there, that's right, you're not seeing things, you can also add headphones to your Mii emoji characters, but iOS 13 goes a step further when it comes to an emoji, so if you tap this button here you get access to MIMO G and a emoji stickers so I can drag and drop any of the stickers directly into a message or I can just tap on a sticker to add it to the conversation like that, but again, it's not just MIMO G stickers, also In emoji stickers you have access to all the emoji in sticker form and as you can see all the stickers share the same common expressions on all the characters, so whether it's a lion, a panda or a chicken, they will all have those The same expressions are available for you, but this is what's really interesting about emoji and emoji stickers.

You can access them outside of the messages app. Yeah, it just opens up the emoji keyboard so even in the Notes app I can access my emoji stickers and that includes an emoji like well, so I just tap on one of them and that adds it to the document like this, if you tap on the ellipsis button you get access to the other characters so I can cycle through them, choose my dinosaur, tap it like this and add it to the document. What do you think? Do you plan to use emoji stickers regularly? Let me know below.

It is thanks to a completely software-generated voice. Siri now sounds more natural and iOS 13, let's compare here's Iowa's 13, here's iOS, well, i OS 13. it definitely sounds less robotic for long answers now another cool feature you'll find in iOS 13 is the Siri kit for audio, so which now you can ask Siri to play audiobooks, music podcasts and it works with third party apps, so Pandora has been updated so you can say, play Radiohead on Pandora and it will start playing just like that and if you have a home pod you will be able to use Siri stops audio on the Home Pod speaker As usual, Apple is at the top of its game when it comes to privacy, so in iOS 13, you now have more granular control over your location sharing.

You'll find a useful new setting that will force apps to ask you every time they want to request your location, so the option to ask next time is brand new in iOS 13, so it's useful. The setup means you can get permission for two and a half years to use your location only during a single session. iOS 13 also makes it easier for users to see when apps are using your location information in the background and you know they're actually showing you where they used your location. location and you can quickly change the location permissions for that particular app right from that notification, so I'm going to launch the camera app, it's going to ask for my location and in this case I'm just going to say, hey, just use this one. time, so allow a really cool new feature in iOS 13 and here's another privacy-oriented feature in iOS 13 now, when you share photos that contain your location information, you can remove that location information from the photo before sharing it.

Unfortunately in the past some apps use Bluetooth for the wrong reasons they use to track you, now in iOS 13 you can easily block access to Bluetooth, although some absolutely need Bluetooth, not all of them do, basically Bluetooth was being used as a A sneaky way to track your location without having access to your location data, so unless an app is dedicated solely to streaming audio over Bluetooth, it will have to request permission in iOS 13. Signing in with Apple's basically a privacy-focused approach to all the Facebook and Google logins you see on the web and in apps signing with Apple is secure; in fact, it doesn't track you, as you'll see on the home screen that appears, not only is it quick and easy, you can use Face ID to quickly authenticate, but it also respects your privacy Apps can only ask for your name and email and Apple will never track it.

You can even go so far as to hide your email and keep your email address private, but thanks to Apple's private relay servers you can still receive messages from the app or service, so here you can see that I have my name and I can log in there and edit that name if I want to, we'll keep it as is and then I can choose whether or not I want to share my email address. or hide my email address. I'm going to choose hide, then I'm going to tap continue and I'm going to dedicate it with a face ID and that's it.

I'm signed in to Apple, so signing in to kayak allows me to log in, you know, book flights or whatever the case may be, book a rental car and signing in with Apple makes everything super easy and painless, so I'll sign out. session here. I'm going to restart the application. I'm going to log in again. Acknowledge that you are logged in. Before tapping continue, verify with Face ID and it registers you like this. Now we have waited patiently, yes, we have waited four years for this. The volume HUD that appears in the middle of the screen blocks content and is generally annoying.

We've waited years for that to go away, it finally goes away in iOS 13. Now you see the volume indicator, the volume HUD right there on the left side of the screen, right next to the volume buttons, and you can also control it with finger. just sliding it up or down like that and notice how discreet it is, how it just hides like that, that's what the volume HUD should have been like from the beginning, but better late than never, right and, to move on , the Silent Mode indicator has now been relocated as well, it's now at the top of the screen nice and unobtrusive on an iOS 13.

It now has the swipe feature on the original keyboard so you don't have to download no type of third party keyboard. to swipe to spell words like this let me show you so just swipe like this you're already subscribed so this is a new feature in iOS 13 it's called quick route and it allows you to quickly swipe or tap right there on your keyboard, so you can tap spell words and swipe things interchangeably to the quick path now in iOS 12 and earlier editions, whenever you want it to movethe cursor in a text field, you would tap and hold like that, you would get the little magnifying glass and then position your cursor is fine, but in iOS 13 it is much better now you have direct cursor manipulation, you can move the cursor directly to the desired place, just tap and drag the cursor like this, no magnifying glass to deal with now, here's another really great feature for iOS 13 on the left side, you see iOS 12, you tap the download button, nothing happens, it just sits there or you get a message error but in iOS 13 you tap download here and it asks you to download the file here in this case an IP SW firmware file so Safari has a built in download manager just tap a button there and you can see the current dental uploads in progress and previous downloads so you can see it's not going too fast there, but okay, we'll do it. just wait, if you tap the little magnifying glass it will take you to the downloads folder in the files app.

You can set that up directly from Safari settings here in the Settings app, so right now, by default, it's the iCloud Drive downloads folder, but you can also save it locally. If you also want it or in other places, what do you think? Are you happy to finally have real download capability in Safari? Let me know the Reminders app in iOS 12 and then you can see it here. Which is frankly terrible, I mean, Be honest, the iOS 13 Reminders app is much better. Here at the top you have your smart list, making it easy to find reminders that meet specific criteria, for example, reminders that have a schedule are automatically filtered into the schedule smart list, all of your flags.

Reminders will appear under the Smart List banner. Your today's reminders contain all the reminders that maybe are overdue or currently expired and you also have all yours if you just want to access all your items in all available lists, now speaking of lists, the reminders app allows you to create your own lists you can give has its own special color, give it its own name and its own avatar, so I'm going to choose orange here and we're going to choose this little guy right here, so there it's going to be personal, okay, so let's go into the personal list and create some. reminders here so I'm going to tap new reminder and we can start adding some items so in this one I'm going to say go shopping and you can use the new quick toolbar to easily add specific parameters to that item so you can say which is due tomorrow I can give it a location I can bookmark it I can even add attachments like photos or scans and I can go to the details view in the inspector and add extra things for example I can even make it remember me when I message someone about this particular reminder, okay, so we have the initial reminder.

We're going to go ahead and add a new one so you can just hit return and continue adding more. Okay, one of the things I really like about reminders is that you can easily create subtasks, if I drag and drop butter on top of the groceries, it becomes a subtask or you can also just swipe right to indent and make subtasks of that way and then you can minimize if you want and it just helps you stay organized, but you can also go one step further, you can group multiple lists, so I'm going to give it the group name and now I have two lists in one group, which which helps me stay organized.

I really like the Reminders app in iOS 13, the new Find My app is a combination of Find My Friends and Find My iPhone. It actually explains it here on the little splash screen, so two apps become one, you have location updates and you have offline search that can use another Apple device and detect your device. Bluetooth signal and report it to the location so you can see at the bottom of the interface that you have the people tab and that will find all your people before searching for my friends and then you will have your device tab and that will find all your devices before Find My iPhone and everything is seamlessly combined into a single interface, the Music app gets a new coat of paint in iOS 13, specifically with the now playing interface, which I think looks amazing, particularly the name of the artist and the title of the song, how they are justified, I think you just see it. great in this interface and then you have the next interface as well and that's where you will find the shuffle and repeat buttons hidden and you will find more controls under the options ellipsis but the really important feature here with the music app is actually , lyrics, yes, lyrics that are time synchronized and that you can follow, you can do karaoke if you want and notice that as the song plays, the lyrics scroll automatically, you can even scroll and tap the lyrics to skip directly to that part of the song.

We'll do it seamlessly and along with the release of iOS 13 comes a new map for the Maps app rebuilt from the ground up with brand new features like more realistic details on roads, parks, buildings, beaches, etc. No, updated maps are only available in select cities. now, but it should actually be in the United States in late 2019 and reach other countries in 2020, but by far the most interesting new iOS 13-related map feature is this one called look around and it's basically the Apple's response to Google. Street View and it is very impressive. In fact, I was really impressed with how well it worked in iOS 13, giving you a 360-degree view of your surroundings in select locations right now so you can navigate and do it even in full screen like now. in 3D and you can even touch the storefronts and learn more about the companies you find.

See how fluid the ride is as you move around the city. It's really smooth and certainly less choppy than what you find on Google Street View, so play again. at one of the locations it gives you information about that business which is helpful so you can get phone numbers, get menus, directions, photos and just look how smooth it is like butter and when you're not in full screen mode you can use little indicator on the screen right here to help you navigate the map and as you turn, the little indicator rotates along with you so you can see exactly which direction you're pointing so you can find those all-important landmarks, so the biggest new feature in iOS 13 is undoubtedly the new Photos app and it makes sense given how camera-centric the new iPhones are here in the Photos app you'll notice that in the Photos tab you have all the photos you have days , months, years, so in the days view, which is the default view, you are presented with the most irrelevant photos, duplicate screenshots will be skipped, things of that nature and you will also see your videos and your photos played in the stream .

Now let's go ahead and tap on the all photos tab here and that will show all of your photos. Notice that some of the screenshots are there or maybe some images that photos deem unimportant will be hidden in the all photos tab. You can now also use pinch gestures to zoom in or out to see more or fewer photos and then you can always tap the days, months or years to zoom out again. There are now other subtle new features in the Photos app, but really the biggest new feature is the ability to edit in a way you've never been able to edit. before, we'll choose this photo here, tap where it says edit in the top right corner and here's the editing interface.

Now the really cool thing is that you get all these effects, a lot of these effects are new. Effects include Vibrance, White Balance, Sharpness, Sharpness, Vignette Noise Reduction, so you'll find all of that as you scroll through this list, but what's really cool is that you can adjust the intensity of each of these effects. one by one for each effect. adjust the intensity and really customize your editing to a very granular degree and you can also easily enable or disable effects on the fly by simply tapping like this to turn it off and on again, so this functionality allows the editor to really get into a specific look so your photos look exactly how you want them and here's another cool new iOS 13 feature that you can zoom in on the photo and continue editing so you can really see up close and personal how the various effects are affecting your image in The way it looks, when I zoom in on the center of the flower I can say, hey, that's too much saturation.

I don't think I like it too much, so let's turn it off, but you really get the point, that's just it. about the fine green control, now it doesn't stop there, you also have all your filters, but again it's new and iOS 13 is the ability to adjust the intensity of each of these filters, so again look for green controls, the name of the game now that I've sped up This goes up a little bit so we can get over this, but as you can see there, you can flip, you can rotate your images, you can do distortions easily and again, with a single tap you turn those features on or off and you can change the ratio Aspect. right there, on the fly, whether in portrait or landscape view, so we end up with this image, but let's upload it and let me show you something in iOS 12 on the left when you try to edit. the photo this is all you get all you can do is crop the photo that's it and that's good don't get me wrong the ability to crop a video is nice but that's pretty much all you get e Even when you did, I had to save it as a new clip, so prepare to be blown away because in iOS 13 editing videos works almost exactly like editing photos, so of course you can go in and trim your video this way, but note that at the bottom of the interface you have everything. those tools, of course, you can turn the sound on or off, you have all those tools there at the bottom here, like photos, you can change all the effects like a photo, you can even zoom in on the video and change all that. effects just like you could with the photo it's amazing change the intensity turn them on or off now with the iPhone 11 and 11 Pro you have incredible video camera capabilities and for the first time the software on the spectrum is on par with the hardware and they joined forces to create this spectacular final product in both software and hardware, so you saw where I can adjust the filters just like I would with photos and then of course I can adjust the aspect ratio that I can flip.

I can rotate it, I can change it to portrait or landscape and I can pan and play it just to see how it looks, but this is what happens when I tap Done, I notice that it doesn't ask me to save a new clip, no, it saves to a file base. data the

changes

to that video and could play it with those

changes

in tow and when sharing media via airdrop, you'll notice a new option that allows you to keep all photo data intact, meaning that when a recipient receives your photo , They will receive it in original quality, they will have all of their editing history so they can go back in and make changes, and all the metadata will also be preserved.

This is a really powerful feature for collaborators and unlike video editing in iOS 12 and earlier. your video edits are destructive in iOS 13, that means you can go back and make changes to your edits at any time again, that's super powerful okay, so let's talk about the new camera features to start, there's a new portrait lighting effect in portrait mode and you. I'll find it at the end here, it's called monochrome high light. This mode creates a beautiful classic look with a monochrome subject on a white background. Now I didn't get to grab one here in this demo, but I already grabbed one, uh-oh, that's it. it's not very flattering, well that's how it looks, it's obviously going to look a lot better with your face there and not that face, so let's talk about another new feature of iOS 13, portrait mode is also related here of course, in iOS 12 you can adjust the Aperture Fascia, you can also adjust the portrait lighting effect that was applied this way, she can switch between the different effects, but in iOS 13 you can adjust the intensity of the portrait lighting and this basically Increases the intensity of each portrait lighting effect by bringing the light closer to the subject. or moving the light away from the subject and you can adjust the intensity of any of the portrait lighting effects in portrait mode now, while this was shown as a feature of the iPhone 11 Pro, older devices like the iPhone 10s will be able to use multiple cameras at the same time. at the same time in iOS 13 so you can do things like this, have the camerafront and rear camera running at the same time capturing data at the same time now, although I think the new gestures of cut, copy, paste, undo and redo or more focused on iPad, you can still perform them on your iPhone with three fingers just like you can do it on the iPad, so you can pinch with three fingers to copy pinch again to cut pinch to paste you can perform an undo gesture by swiping left with three fingers and redo by swiping right with three fingers obviously this will be better on the iPad's larger screen, but you can still do it right here in iOS 13 in iOS 13 you'll find a redesigned share sheet, so here's iOS 12 on the left, iOS 13, on the right, you'll notice right away that you have those shortcuts quick to share, so you have people there with their names and faces, you just tap on it very easily and this updates intelligently to show the most recent contacts or the contacts that they think.

You may want to share with Be Stoned what you are sharing, for example, of certain people in a photo. It will suggest you share with that person first and then you have your airdrop section, so it has a dedicated panel for airdrop. where you will find all the airdrop capable devices around you and you will also notice a redesign actions menu with favorites at the top, then you will have the actions specific to your app and then all the other actions below where the launch app receives a redesign and some updates. Also, the most obvious difference is the accessory controls in the Refresh Home app so you can see that the controls are updated.

They're on iOS 13 on the right. Here's the thermostat, it obviously looks a lot more like a thermostat here on the right compared to how it used to look in iOS 12, also noticed some new but subtle animations with the Home app tiles when enabling or disabling devices and the interface Camera was also updated in iOS 13, now it is possible to quickly switch between different cameras directly from the camera interface which is really nice and you can also access any other accessories in the particular room where your camera is set. You couldn't do that in iOS 12 now, of course, there will be more updates related to the home app, such as safe home kits.

The video will be coming in a future update for home kit routers etc so stay tuned as we will have more and of course we can't forget about Apple or RK which is a great new feature that is cross platform within the ecosystem Apple, of course, is here. with iOS 13 there are tons of games, there will be over a hundred different games that you can play once it is fully developed, all for a low price of $4.99 a month and I have been playing Apple or Arcade for the last day and medium and I have to say that I am very impressed with the quality of the content here on Apple Arcade, even at this early stage of the game.

Here is one of my favorite titles on Apple Arcade called what the golf the. The best way I can describe this game is simply a very irreverent take on the game of golf in general. In this game, literally anything can qualify as a golf ball. It's very fun and crazy. What I really love about Apple Arcade, besides the quality. The titles are priced at five dollars a month that you can even share with the rest of your family members. In my opinion, this is a no-brainer. What do you think? Will you subscribe to Apple Arcade? Let me know below in the comments section and another reason why Apple Arcade The cool thing is that you now have support for Xbox and Playstation 4 controllers built into iOS 13, so this is very important, obviously, because a lot of people It already has Xbox and Playstation 4 controllers and gives you the best way to control your iOS games. outside of native touch enabled games so here you can see with my xbox controller.

I'm playing one of my favorite Apple Arcade titles, hexa Flip with the controller, although it is possible to play this game perfectly fine with touch, ok, so let's take a quick second to Speaking of some app updates, the first thing you'll notice here is this new formatting bar and that gives way to this desktop text formatting inside the Mail app in iOS 13 so you can see what you can change. The font can be changed, of course, the font weight, italicizing everything normal, but you can also go in and change the colors through a handy color palette.

Of course, you can indent, you can unindent, you can check it and create an ordered list or a numerical list in the format bar. It also allows you to insert attachments, photos, documents, even scans. Of course, you can draw and use markups directly within the Mail app. Insert your drawing just like that and then friends, the Files app gets some significant improvements in iOS 13 so you can get information about files and find the metadata related to those files, especially useful for images, you can find out which lens was used with opening, all that goodness and then you can log in and you can also connect to an SMB server directly from the files app, so I'm going to do that.

So right now and this is just a Synology Nast that I have on my network, it will connect and authenticate and voila, we are connected to our Synology nas wirelessly directly from the iOS 13 files app, so I like to store all my videos. What I did, I keep them here for safekeeping. Unfortunately, these videos are extremely large and I'm running them on a slow network, so you won't be able to see the video play during this video because it will take too long. but the fact that you can connect to an external server is amazing, so my friends you have seen more than twenty new features of iOS 13, which one is your favorite, let me know below in the comments section and don't forget to subscribe.

I like this video if you appreciated it and also a very special thanks to our sponsor tenor cher reboot makers, if you need to fix your iOS device, maybe you are stuck in a boot loop or in recovery mode, then reboot can help you.
