One of the cooler enhancements in the improved Music app in the iOS and iPadOS 14 updates that wasn't mentioned before brings animated artwork for some Apple Music playlists.
The iPadOS 14 software brings nearly a dozen cool new handwriting features with the Apple Pencil, including Scribble for iPad. Here's our video walkthrough of what we think are the eight most compelling Apple Pencil improvements available with the iPadOS 14 update.
Apple continues to move right along with its latest beta, preparing developers for the next version of its mobile operating systems.
iOS 14 has brought a handy emoji search option that has long been included in the Mac operating system, but it doesn't work on iPadOS 14 because it uses a different approach.
iOS 14's Photos lets you zoom in on images further than ever before so most folks won't have to resort to trickery just to zoom in on their photographs beyond Apple's visibility threshold.
iOS and iPadOS 14 double down on privacy with a myriad of new features, including notifying you when an app or a widget access the system clipboard. Nest of all, this feature has already forced TikTok to promise to stop accessing the iOS clipboard after it was discovered that the app is grabbing clipboard content every few seconds.
Apple has added new capabilities to its Vision framework in iOS 14, iPadOS 14, tvOS 14 and macOS 11.0 Big Slur which enable developers to support cool screenless app interactions.
Apple officially unveiled iOS and iPadOS 14 for the first time on Monday as a part of its WWDC 2020 Keynote, and just this morning, checkra1n team co-developer Dany Lisiansky teased a screenshot of the checkra1n jailbreak working on an iPhone running iOS 14. If the words “that was fast” uttered from your mouth upon seeing this, then you’re not alone.
Lisiansky admitted that there was still a lot more work that needed to be completed before checkra1n could be deemed iOS 14-compatible, but as you might come to expect, things are progressing rather quickly thanks to the unique talent encompassed within the checkra1n team. Just this evening, checkra1n team co-developer Sam Bingner teased a screenshot of the Cydia package manager operating on an iPhone X running iOS 14:
Another privacy-enhancing feature brought out by the iOS and iPadOS 14 updates makes it so you can easily tell whether some app is currently shooting video with your device's camera.
iOS and iPadOS 14 are packed to the gills with a myriad of little tweaks and features that didn't even get a proper mention during the pre-recorded WWDC 2020 keynote talk, including a new battery notification that alerts you when you need to charge your AirPods.
The useful QuickTake feature plus changing video recording resolution and frame rate via dedicated toggles within the Camera app are now available on older devices as well.
A lot of the focus this past week has been on Apple’s WWDC 2020 keynote in which the Cupertino-based company unveiled the latest and greatest operating systems for its line of devices including iPhones and iPads, Apple Watches, Apple TVs, and Macs, among other things. But one of the things that got overshadowed amid all the excitement was a parallel address centric to the jailbreak community known as WWTC 2020.
WWTC stands for Worldwide Tweaks Conference, and it’s fundamentally a live-streamed presentation akin to Apple’s WWDC in which jailbreak developers take the stage to discuss some of their creations rather than Apple’s executive staff taking the stage to discuss the company’s latest and upcoming software.
