AirPlay

  • Thanks to the multitasking video features you can now use other apps and play short audio and video files on your device without interrupting AirPlay.

Time of use

Safari

  • You can now edit the searches you’ve made in the smart search field by tapping the arrow icon displayed next to the suggestions.

Apple Music
