Summary of new features in iOS 10.3: AirPods can also locate and sound when lost

Apple released the first developer beta of iOS 10.3 earlier today. As an upgrade patch to 10.x, iOS 10.3 is the third major version update of the iOS 10 system. iOS 10.3 also includes many new features, the most important of which is "Find AirPods", an AirPods search tool officially launched by Apple that makes it easier for users to find AirPods. In addition to "Find AirPods", iOS 10.3 also optimizes the underlying system. When users complete the upgrade, the file system of iOS devices is also updated to the new Apple file system APFS. Here are more new features:

New "Find AirPods" tool

The new "Find AirPods" tool is built into the "Find iPhone" app. This new tool supports locating AirPods and can make AirPods make sounds. Apple reminds you to make sure that AirPods are not worn on your ears when using this feature, because this feature will make AirPods make a very high sound, which may cause ear discomfort. This feature can only be used on iOS devices, which means that the web version of Find iPhone cannot complete AirPods positioning.

Siri and CarPlay improvements


Siri in the first beta of iOS 10.3 supports querying the results of the Indian Premier League and the International Cricket Council. At the same time, the SiriKit framework can also be used to pay bills and query payment status.

CarPlay in the first beta of iOS 10.3 can display shortcuts to recently launched apps, and CarPlay's map app can also show the location of electric vehicle charging stations.

Security and Privacy

In the Settings app, a new user security section has been added, which can provide basic user information, facilitate user management of Apple ID, and display the Apple devices connected to this ID. In a sense, the new Apple ID function is to force users to upgrade to the two-factor authentication mechanism. If you declare that it is not turned on, you will see a small red dot on the Settings app, which is simply a rhythm that drives people with obsessive-compulsive disorder to death. If the two-factor authentication mechanism is not turned on, a reminder will also be pushed on the lock screen interface. Of course, for security reasons, everyone should still turn on the two-factor authentication mechanism.


New Apple File System (APFS)

When users install iOS 10.3, the entire file system will be upgraded to Apple File System (APFS). On June 14, 2016, Apple officially announced a new file system, Apple File System, at WWDC. APFS has many advantages, such as "optimizing flash/SSD storage and using encryption as the main function", using a "unique copy-on-write design" on I/O joints, and optimizing performance while ensuring reliability. The core of the system is encryption, which will provide a unified encryption method for every Apple device. The system includes multi-key encryption, with built-in keys for each file, and independent keys for sensitive metadata.
