While most of what was leaked coming to iOS 13 was mentioned on stage today at WWDC, there were some pretty interesting things coming that weren’t leaked nor mentioned on stage.

  • Option to download large apps over cellular
    • You can choose to download apps and games over your cellular connection.
  • Scheduled dark mode
    • Have Dark Mode turn on and off at a certain time or based on sunrise and sunset, which is great when you’re outside at night or using your iPhone before you go to bed.
  • Extended Live Photos playback
    • When you press and hold to play a Live Photo, Photos will automatically extend the video when you have Live Photos taken within 1.5 seconds of each other.
  • AirPlay 2 speakers in scenes and automations
    • Access songs, playlists, and radio stations with Apple Music.
  • Improved Siri guidance
    • More natural language enhances the navigation experience. So instead of saying “in 1,000 feet turn left,” Siri says “turn left at the next traffic light.” Improved navigation also guides you closer to your end-point destination, which is especially important for large venues.
  • SiriKit for Audio
    • Siri can now play music, podcasts, audiobooks, and radio with third-party apps.
  • Mute Thread In Mail
    • Easily mute notifications from an overly active email thread across all your Apple devices.
  • Zip and unzip in Files
    • Select files and zip them for easy sharing via email. Tap a zip file to expand it into a folder and access the files.
  • Reading goals in Books
    • Read a book or listen to an audiobook for five minutes while in line for coffee, on your commute, or before bed to achieve your Daily Reading Goal. Build streaks to celebrate your achievements and share books you’ve finished with the Books Read this Year collection
  • Control Center
    • You can now select Wi‑Fi networks and Bluetooth accessories right from Control Center.
  • Family sharing hotspot
    • Your family’s devices can automatically connect to your nearby iPhone personal hotspot when there’s no internet connection available.
