This morning we were reviewing the new arrivals that had been found in the first beta of iOS 11.3 and we mentioned a minor change, which was the renaming iBooks to Books, but the latest information suggests that this detail, irrelevant in itself, is a sign of a renewal of much more depth that will take place later.
The first novelty of iOS 12 revealed?
Although the news for iPad and iPhone stars it right now iOS 11.3 And even from this update at the moment all we have is a beta, it seems that we are going to start hearing about the news that it will bring us iOS 12, Ya que Bloomberg, which is the medium from which the information comes, points to a launch in the "next months”And it seems strange that those of Cupertino they wouldn't have mentioned her yesterday. It is true, in any case, that it cannot be ruled out that they are simply saving some surprise for the official launch and we can enjoy it much sooner.
How they tell us in 9to5mac, the novelty in question would be a complete renewal of the app iBooks that, as we have already commented, it would have already started with a small change in the name. We do not have many details yet regarding all new arrivals that we are going to find, but there are some clues: a new section will be included where the readings that we have in progress can be located, the audio-books will be given more prominence with a tab dedicated to them and it will be given a style, in Generally, more in line with what the App Store now has. In any case, it is expected that there will be important improvements, since Apple Lossless Audio CODEC (ALAC), is determined to stand up to Amazon in the field of eBooks (He has hired one of his executives for it, in fact).
Make iPad an even better tool for reading
It is interesting for us, in any case, to know that Apple Lossless Audio CODEC (ALAC), will continue to strive to improve the experience of using the iPad, because while it is true that the new emphasis on audio-books can greatly benefit the iPhone, the tablet is the one that has to gain the most with improvements in its app to read e-books. And after so much emphasis on the productivity section with iOS 11, even if all the news it brought was more than necessary, it is appreciated that it also lends itself to the activities more related to leisure.
El iPad It is already, in any case, a great device for reading, although it is true that to a large extent it is with the help of third-party apps, among which of course are the Amazon, but also that of Google, which have the advantage of being more practical also for those who combine an iPad with other Android devices. Compared with other alternatives that we have in the App Store, in addition, it must be recognized that iBooks It is still a good option but it has perhaps been somewhat neglected in recent years, without any major update, so we really want to see how it is renewed.
