Five iOS 13 features that will make Chinese users very happy
Apple has released the first public beta of iOS 13
Users are finally getting their hands on Apple’s iOS 13 update -- and it’s full of goodies for China.
Apple released the first public beta builds for its next iPhone operating system on Monday. The headline features include more privacy options, improvements to the photo app and a dark mode.
iOS 13 was trending on Weibo on Tuesday as Chinese users saw some of the features tailored towards them. Here’s five of them!
