The operating system used by Apple for their iPhone and iPad devices is commonly known as iOS. Apple recently announced that they would be launching a new mobile operating system, iOS 11, which is rumored to be one of the most significant iOS updates in the recent years.
Reports from several reliable sources claim that the iOS 11 update from Apple will bring a number of new features to iPad and iPhone devices. Still, just like all other major software updates of Apple, users can download and use iOS 11 free of charge. Let us check out the latest iPad features that will be an absolute treat for students.
App Dock
The latest software update from Apple will bring an all-new dock to iPad devices that will make it a lot easier for users to find their recently used apps, favorite apps, and homework files. The latest dock is also the only way for iPad users to activate the Split-View mode because the right-edge swipe will no longer work on iPad devices after the iOS 11 update.
Files App
Apple will be adding a new Files app to iPad through the latest update, which will enable students to organize their homework files and other learning materials in a single place. iPad users also enjoy the luxury of putting their files in iCloud and third party applications.
App Switcher
The App Switcher feature in the latest update from Apple will display all of the recently used applications of the user. In addition to that, it also preserves the Slide Over window arrangements of your tablet and allows users easy access to the Control Center settings of the iPad.
Apple Pencil
The latest iOS 11 update will bring a number of new features to the Apple Pencil such as Instant Notes, Instant Markup, Searchable Handwriting, and Inline Drawing. These added features will enable students to easily annotate PDFs, sign documents, and draw on screenshots. Additionally, it will also help you to take instant notes during lectures.
Beta testers and developers may have already got their hands on the latest update but the final launch to users is still a few months away. However, as per reports, iOS 11 update will be available to users by the end of September.
