    [Megathread] Apple releasing iOS 13.1, iPadOS 13.1, tvOS 13

    Posted: 24 Sep 2019 09:00 AM PDT

    Good Morning! Good Morning! Hello! Good Morning!

    This Megathread will be for the release of iOS 13.1, iPadOS 13.1, tvOS 13.0

    Some things to note:

    • The new updates will start rolling out at 10am PST (1pm EDT)

    • Apple TV+ launches November 1st
    • All updates will drop in 45 minutes (as of 12:15 EDT)

    In an attempt to curb the number of threads about iOS/iPadOS/tvOS release posts, iOS/iPadOS/tvOS updating questions, iOS/iPadOS/tvOS app updates, and etc, we are asking that all discussion about it remain here.

    Posts about any of the releases above will be removed to the moderators' discretion.

    iOS 13.1:

    Release Notes will be updated here once the update drops

    Notable features:

    Every device that got iOS 13 will get this update.

    iPadOS includes all iOS 13 (iPhone, iPod) features, so I will omit on mentioning them

    Notable features:

    'New' home screen :

    • App icons are smaller, which allows you to fit more icons
    • New Option to add the widgets permanently on the first page of your homescreen

    Slide Over and Split View:

    • Multiple apps in slideover - it's like having a mini iPhone X on your iPad. Really. Supports all iPhone X gestures, and it even has a app switcher. Really
    • Slide Over and Split View support the same instances of the same app.

    App Expose:

    • Tap and hold an app's icon to see all the the windows/instances of an app (whether they are in mini iPhone X mode, or in full iPad mode), like in macOS

    Keyboard:

    • Shrink (like shrinking an photo, PDF) to make the keyboard one handed. It is movable to wherever you want it to be.
    • QuickPath (keyboard swipe) only available in one-handed mode

    OS Wide things:

    • Gestures to copy, paste, undo
    • Sidecar with macOS Catalina enabled Macs
    • Full page markup with redesigned tool palette
    • Tapping the corner of the display opens Markup
    • Mouse support (as an Assistive Touch feature) whether that's wireless or plugged in.

    iPadOS is available in the following devices:

    iPad

    And needless to say, the iPad (7th Generation, available on 9/30) will ship with iPadOS.


    tvOS 13

    New Homescreeen:

    • New homescreen aimed at discovery instead of things to keep watching
    • Docked apps can play full screen video previews in the space above the dock

    Other features:

    • Multi user support with personalized recommendations, individual homescreens
    • Live lyrics in the Music app
    • Apple Arcade

    Snapchat seems to be accessing location even when denied access to it by using iOS’ system services

    Posted: 24 Sep 2019 02:07 PM PDT

    Today a friend of mine noticed that even though he had turned Snapchat location settings to "never", the app kept accessing location.

    These are the steps we took to replicate it (all tested on 12.3, 12.4,12.4.1 and 13.0)

    Went to Settings>privacy>location services and proceeded with:

    1. We turned all of other apps location services to "never"
    2. Went to System Services and activated "Status Bar Icon" then turned off all the services that the system asks for besides "Significant Locations"

    At this point we opened Snapchat again and tested it many times. Every single time we would open Snapchat the location arrow would pop up, every single time. No other app shows this behavior and no settings were changed.

    1. We went ahead and turned off "Significant locations" on System Services.

    Now Snapchat would not show the location arrow and it didn't seem to trigger any location services.

    Is Snapchat asking for extra permissions without the user knowing and accessing system settings? I thought that if an app was set to "never" they could actually never access location data.

    Location Services and Privacy - Apple Apple in no way says or explains that any third-party app can access this data.

    What's really going on here?

    Numbers app not updated to iPadOS

    Posted: 24 Sep 2019 03:24 PM PDT

    Numbers and Shortcuts are two apps that dominate my ipad usage.

    So, it's very disappointing that with today's release of iOS 13.1 (ipadOS), Numbers doesn't get dark mode, Shortcut parameter support or even Multi-Window.

    Since Numbers can and does get updates separate from OS updates, I hope this was just a low priority for the release schedule and that Numbers gets a proper iOS/iPadOS update Soon
