iOS 13 rumored to have major iPad-focused feature upgrades

<article>
   <section class="page">
<p>Mark Gurman, the Bloomberg writer who regularly breaks scoops on upcoming Apple plans, casually dropped news of some planned iOS 13 features for iPad <a href="https://twitter.com/markgurman/status/992460292868190213" rel="nofollow">in a tweet[/url].</p><p>Gurman claims that iOS 13 is code-named Yukon—Apple typically code-names its iOS releases around ski resort towns, so this checks out—and that it will feature (among other things) a bunch of welcome iPad features:</p><ul>
<li>A new Files app</li>
<li>Tabs within apps (similar to macOS)</li>
<li>The ability to run two instances of the same app side-by-side</li>
<li>Apple Pencil improvements</li>
<li>File system improvements (like the ability for docs to live outside apps)</li>
</ul>
<p>He claims the home screen redesign—one of those things said to have been bumped from iOS 12 to next year’s iOS release—is “iPad-focused.” Ina Fried at Axios previously reported (https://www.macworld.com/article/3252034/ios/ios-12-features-release-date-and-how-to-install.html) that numerous iOS 12 features had been bumped to 2019, including refinements to CarPlay and Photos. Presumably, iOS 12 will be a so-called maintenance release, focusing on performance and stability after a series of embarrassing (https://www.macworld.com/article/3235912/ios/how-to-fix-ios-11-capital-i-bug-iphone.html) bugs (https://www.macworld.com/article/3239785/ios/if-your-iphone-started-crashing-at-midnight-on-dec-2-ios-112-will-fix-it.html) affected iOS 11.</p><p class="jumpTag"><a href="/article/3269749/iphone-ipad/ios-13-ipad-rumors.html#jump">To read this article in full, please click here[/url]</p></section></article>
