hi everyone Aaron here for ZolloTech & iOS 13 has a lot of different little
changes and tweaks to it and many people are excited about dark mode but I wanted
to go over five changes that I find to be my favorite after using this since
June and some of these you may not even realize exist and dark mode is not one
of my favorites in fact it's something that I think is convenient at night but
it's not something that's one of my favorite features so let's go over my
five favorite from least to most favorite and the first one has to do
with maps and maps is not very exciting but it does keep getting better and
better and adding features that Google Maps had before it and I like it because
it's a little bit more secure there's less information going out and if you go
to an area that has these binoculars if you hit the binoculars this is very much
like Google Street View but instead it's let's expand it out here it's much more
fast and fluid more like you're driving down the road although I'm driving
backwards in this case but you get the idea we can turn around very fast and
fluid and here is Apple Park I'm just driving by it and it's really nice
simple and straightforward and it will even give you different traffic signals
and things as you zoom in it will let you know how the traffic is tell you the
air quality so it's really nice it's a very clean interface and I like it quite
a bit now the next thing is photos now photos has a lot of big changes to it
and some small ones but there's a couple little ones that I like in particular so
let's go into photos we'll go into for you and for you compiles things again
very similar to Google photos but it's all kept secret and private on this
device so if I go into Charlotte you'll see there's a bunch of pictures I've
taken with different phones for tests and things like that
and maybe it will go in here and we can zoom but one of the things I like quite
a lot is if I go to my albums go to a recent photo I took in portrait mode we
can go to edit and under edit we can adjust all sorts of things from lighting
to exposure we can darken it in fact that's more what it looks like stock I
brightened it up a little bit you can change brilliance and you can change the
lighting on any portrait that you do so this saves me a lot of time instead of
having to export it or use a different app I can do this all right here and
it's quite good so there's a lot of different final adjustments including in
the camera we have a bunch of different portrait settings that we now have that
are more helpful such as your f-stop and we had those before but now that we've
got all of these things combined I just find it to be much more useful
and it's a one-stop place for all of your different adjustments now another
thing people are very familiar with at this point and that's the quick path
keyboard so if I go into notes and then I can say hi how are you today and this
is getting better and better the quick path keyboard makes it very easy just to
swipe around and put in what you want now swipe has been around for a long
time but I like the again it's secure and private on your device you're not
sharing any information with someone as far as what you've typed what you've
said and it's just kept right here so that's really nice now the next feature
I think is incredibly helpful and I discovered it by accident and that's in
mail so let's go into mail and in mail you'll see I have a bunch of different
test email and what you can do I found this by accident is if you hit edit you
can tap on one but now if you want to select all of these of course you can
just select all of them there's a couple different options for select all but
maybe you want to only select a couple of them instead of tapping just drag
your finger and I found this by mistake I put it in select or edit mode and just
drag your finger it's incredibly fast maybe you have a bunch of them you want
to select or unselect again you can just do that very fast zip through your email
and get rid of them of course you can do edit select all and trash or move and
mark but I really like this feature especially if there's just a few I want
to get rid of like that so I find it very very helpful and I haven't seen
anybody else mention it it's not in the previous version of iOS so this is a
really nice feature and there's a bunch of other features now that they've done
if you want to reply but if we want to reply we can change everything from
fonts to whatever we want and I just find mail to be a much
better experience now now my favorite feature is one that may sound a little
bit goofy to some people but this gives me hope that Apple may be returning to
some of its roots and what I mean is in music and the reason I say this is
because Steve Jobs was very big on music and cover flow and presenting different
art from artists and so if we go into a song like this one here while I can't
play it for copyright reasons what I can do is show you my favorite feature so
we'll hit the play button here in this little button if it has it is the lyrics
and they go through the lyrics as they're singing the lyrics and then if
you want to jump to a different part of the song tap on that part of the song it
jumps to that part of the song this is one of my favorite and most apple-like
features that I've seen in a long time there's a lot of other features of
course but this one I really like and I find I use it a lot because I used to
look at lyrics a lot fill out some of the lyrics and things like that and it's
just one of those features that is a little tweak and refinement that you
don't see elsewhere and I really enjoy that now iOS 13 has two more features I
wanted to go over that you may be familiar with but I find are some of the
best features out there one of them is specific to iPad OS right now which is
just a rebrand at iOS 13 but let's talk about the first one and that's under
accessibility so you go into settings go to accessibility and while this is not
specifically something I will use constantly I find it to be one of the
best features for those who are disabled or maybe just need a little extra help
and that is voice control so if we go into voice control and we turn it on now
I can use my voice to control my phone and tell it what to do go home and
you'll see it just went home open settings and now we're in settings turn
off voice control
and now voice controls off and this feature is phenomenal for those of you
that have trouble typing maybe you have a debilitating disease where you can't
move your hands very well or type you can do it all with your voice and it's
incredibly accurate and very nice now not everyone is going to use this but I
think it really helps and you can even tell it or teach it your vocabulary so
that you can maybe put in a phrase that you want it to recognize that will do a
special command so there's all sorts of really great features built in and it's
something that's not only on iOS it's an iPad OS and Mac OS Catalina
this will be great for those that need that sort of assistance and then the
last one has to do with external drives now if you have an external drive with
iPad OS you just plug it in you use the files app which is great and you can
just see all of your files unfortunately I'm not able to get it to work properly
with iOS yet but it is a feature on iPads and of course Mac as well so that
hopefully will be coming to iPhone if I can get it to work of course I'll make a
video about it but let me know your top five features
in the comments below those are my five you may not agree with them that's fine
I just find those are the ones I like the most but let me know your thoughts
