5 iOS 11 Features That Will Make Your Life Much Easier

"iOS 11 gives iPad users the powerful app functionality they need to take advantage of everything iPad is capable of, and brings hundreds of new features and incredible updates to the iOS apps iPhone and iPad users enjoy every day", Craig Federighi, Apple's senior VP of Software Engineering, said Monday.

The first new thing you'll notice about Siri in iOS 11 is her more-natural sounding voice. But once iOS 11 is widely available, you can filter to your heart's content without worrying if whatever app you're using has the security capability to protect your nudes. However, we're a long way from seeing the final version of iOS 11 out and about, which means you're going to have to prepare yourself for some issues with iOS 11 beta 1. You'll be able to ask Siri how to say a phrase in a different language and the virtual assistant will translate it for you.

Users can also enable an auto-text response that they are driving or choose specific contacts who can break through the feature in the case of an important message. Then you need to enroll your device and bam! "This will make them more comfortable using your app because they will have better control over their data", Kontaxis explained. Interestingly enough, Apple has fixed an oversight by Microsoft, allowing users to simply share access on a per-person basis rather than blanket share to everyone on their contact list automatically. Apple Pay will be integrated into iMessage with iOS 11. Apple has also expanded SiriKit support to include more robust integrations with third-party services. Apple Pay Cash balance can be transferred to a bank account or used as payment in stores and online.

iOS 11 users can also share their WiFi password with a guest in the future.

The biggest change is likely to see banking apps allow users to make payments from within their apps and London's Oyster card offered as a direct payment option on iPhone, bypassing Apple Pay altogether.

"By blending digital objects and information with the environment around you, ARKit takes apps beyond the screen, freeing them to interact with the real world in entirely new ways", according to Apple.
