This past week, Apple revealed the beta form of the upcoming iOS 10 software during their annual Worldwide Developers Conference (WWDC) in San Francisco. This latest update is full of redesigns and ways to make iPhone and iPad use all the easier. Of course, the milestone software number lives up to its potential, with all the new features all available for free download.

So far, iOS 10 comes with over 20 new features, which includes one to [finally] remove those pesky, unused apps from your home screen. Apple Software Chief Craig Federighi has confirmed that you can only remove the apps from your home screen -- not your phone. It will only remove the icon, user data and all other things related to the removed app. However, it's not really a big deal as the total amount of space combined (Stocks, Newsstand, iBooks, etc.) only equates to about 150 megabytes (MB). Meaning that if you accidentally remove an app from your home screen, you can retrieve it by going to the App Store and tap the Get button to restore it.

As far as new features are concerned, iOS 10 will now give you the ability to type in two different languages without having to switch keyboards. In addition, you will also be able to use Siri in other third-party apps like transportation app Lyft. Apple Maps has also improved greatly as you will also have the leisure of making reservations to restaurants via the OpenTable app as well as making car reservations using Uber. Apple also plans to roll-out an iMessage app store where you can access your favorite iMessage apps to share content, make payments and more all while staying in iMessage. Plus, Apple Pay will now be available for web use, making shopping all the easier. The home and lock screen will also see their first significant revamp in almost ten years, including the removal of the ‘slide to unlock’ feature which will be replaced by a ‘press home to open’ button.

So far, iOS 10 is only available for developers and won’t be in beta for the general public until July. The software is slated for a Fall release, and will only be available for the iPhone 5 and later, iPad 4th generation and later and the 6th generation of the iPod touch. The question still remains as to what happens if you try to access a feature for an app that has been ‘removed.’ For now, it’s unclear, but with the beta version coming out soon, it’s safe to say that the possible bug will be fixed in time for the Fall release.
