Apple releases iOS 12 -- update your devices now!
If you own an iPhone (5s or newer), or an iPad, you can now officially update it to iOS 12, the latest and greatest version of Apple’s mobile operating system. iOS 12 offers performance improvements, new AR experiences, Memoji, Screen Time, and Siri Shortcuts for apps, to name just a few of the new additions.
With this update, Apple says the camera will now launch up to 70 percent faster, and the keyboard 50 percent faster. Typing is more responsive too. If your iPhone is busy doing other tasks, apps can launch twice as fast under iOS 12 than in iOS 11.
Apple has improved AR in this update, and claims users can enjoy an "even more realistic mix of the virtual and real world with support for image detection and tracking, making it possible to detect 3D objects and automatically apply reflections." AR files can now be viewed nearly anywhere in the OS, including in Messages, Safari, Mail, Files and News.
