Los de la conférence d’ouverture du WWDC 2018 Apple n’a fait qu’effleurer la surface de ce que propose iOS 12; fort de ce constat, le site Appleinsider a eu la très heureuse idée de faire un petit passage en revue de 150 nouveautés présentes dans iOS 12, de quoi sans doute rassurer tous ceux qui se demandent si Apple n’a pas seulement travaillé sur l’optimisation du système au détriment des fonctionnalités. iOS 12 est certes beaucoup plus réactif qu’iOS 11 (et en version bêta en plus), mais il propose aussi nombre de nouvelles fonctions plus ou moins importantes selon les usages que l’on fait de son iPhone; nouveau design pour l’app Bourse, app Mesure, option Bedtime pour Ne pas Déranger (Do Not Disturb), choix de la qualité sonore pour les mémos vocaux, notifications groupées, Hey Siri en mode « faible consommation », Favicons dans les tabs Safari, la liste des ajouts/modifications est très longue, mais la petite vidéo de nos confrères permet d’y voir plus clair dans cette masse de nouveautés. Petite contrainte ici, les explications sont en anglais (mais cela vaut le coup de tendre l’oreille).
