iOS 13.3, iPadOS 13.3 Updates Released With New Parental Controls; tvOS 13.3, watchOS 6.1.1 Rolled Out as Well

Apple has released iOS 13.3 and iPadOS 13.3 with a list of new parental controls to enhance its native Screen Time offering. The latest iOS and iPadOS updates that are designed for all compatible iPhone, iPod touch, and iPad models come less than a month after the Cupertino giant brought iOS 13.2.3 and iPadOS 13.2.3. The new updates also include support for physical security keys. Alongside the iOS 13.3 and iPadOS 13.3 updates, Apple has rolled out tvOS 13.3 for Apple TV users. The company has also brought watchOS 6.1.1 for all compatible Apple Watch models.

What’s new with iOS 13.3, iPadOS 13.3

While iOS 13.3 and iPadOS 13.3 continue the journey of bug fixes and performance improvements that was primarily started following the debut of iOS 13 and iPadOS 13 in September, the fresh updates bring some notable changes too. One of them is the new parental controls. These controls provide additional communication limits to parents to let them choose who their children can call, message, or FaceTime. Parents have been offered with the ability to set either a group of people or “everyone” with whom their kids can speak to.

Similarly, Apple has provided the contact lists that parents can manage directly from the devices of their children. The new additions are a part of the Screen Time feature that debuted with the release of iOS 12 last year. Moreover, the changes can be accessed through the Communication Limits section from the Screen Time settings.

Apple brings a Communications Limit section to offer new parental controls

Alongside the new parental controls, the iOS 13.3 and iPadOS 13.3 updates bring support for NFC, USB, and Lightning FIDO2-compliant security keys that can be used for securely browsing websites on Safari. Platforms such as Dropbox, Facebook, Gmail, and Twitter support security keys for some time. This means that by adding a physical security key to your iPhone or iPad, you’ll now get a greater account protection across social media and email inboxes.

Apple has also brought a new layout for Apple News+ stories from newspapers such as The Wall Street Journal. There is also the option to like or dislike any particular news story on the Apple News+ app with a single tap.

Since the release of iOS 13, Apple has provided Memoji stickers as a part of the regular emoji keyboard. That change has been found to be annoying by some users as people sometimes accidentally send Memoji stickers to their contacts in place of a recently used emoji. The new software version addresses this concern by adding the option to disable Memoji stickers by going through Settings > General > Keyboard > Emoji.

The latest iOS and iPadOS updates also uplift the Photos app with the ability to create a new video clip while trimming a long video file. The updates also fix issues in Mail that may prevent downloading new messages. The issue that prevented deleting messages in Gmail accounts has also been addressed. Further, problems related to incorrect characters in messages and duplication of sent messages in Exchange accounts have been resolved.

Especially the iOS 13.3 update also addresses an issue that was affecting the missed call badge on the Phone app. The new iOS and iPadOS updates also carry a fix for the issue that was incorrectly showing the Cellular Data setting off.

You can read the security content included in the new software updates by visiting the dedicated support page by Apple. There are fixes for various vulnerabilities and security loopholes that make it important to download the latest updates.

How to download iOS 13.3, iPadOS 13.3

Apple has released iOS 13.3 for all the iPhone and iPod touch models compatible with iOS 13. Similarly, iPadOS 13.3 is designed for the iPad devices compatible with iPadOS 13. You can check the availability of the fresh iOS or iPadOS update on your iPhone or iPad by going to Settings > General > Software Update. Make sure that your device has sufficient amount of battery and is connected to a Wi-Fi network.

iOS 13.3 is available for all devices compatible with iOS 13

Users on older iPhone, iPod touch, and iPad models have been provided with iOS 12.4.4. The update is available for devices namely the iPhone 5s, iPhone 6, iPad Air, iPad mini 2, iPad mini 3, and the iPod touch sixth generation.

What’s new with tvOS 13.3

Aside from iOS 13.3 and iPadOS 13.3, Apple has brought tvOS 13.3 that brings a new setting to let you bring back the “Up Next” queue to your Apple TV home screen that was removed through tvOS 13. With the new change, you can switch between showing “What to Watch” and “Up Next” views in the Top Shelf of your Apple TV home screen.

You can bring back the Up Next queue by visit the Home Screen settings on your Apple TV.

How to download tvOS 13.3

To download tvOS 13.3, open the Settings app on your Apple TV and then go to System > Software Update. The update may have already reached your device if you’ve enabled the automatic updates option for your Apple TV device.

What’s new with watchOS 6.1.1

Apple has also brought watchOS 6.1.1 for all compatible Apple Watch models. The new version is claimed to provide “important security updates”. It doesn’t bring any notable changes, though.

How to download watchOS 6.1.1

You can download watchOS 6.1.1 to any Apple Watch model that’s compatible with watchOS 6.0. To download the update, go to the My Watch tab on the Watch app available on your iPhone and then visit General > Software Update.

iOS 14: Apple Changing How It Develops Its Software After Buggy iOS 13 Debut

Apple is overhauling how it tests software after a swarm of bugs marred the latest iPhone and iPad operating systems, according to people familiar with the shift. Software chief Craig Federighi and lieutenants including Stacey Lysik announced the changes at a recent internal "kickoff" meeting with the company's software developers. The new approach calls for Apple's development teams to ensure that test versions, known as "daily builds," of future software updates disable unfinished or buggy features by default. Testers will then have the option to selectively enable those features, via a new internal process and settings menu dubbed Flags, allowing them to isolate the impact of each individual addition on the system.

When the company's iOS 13 was released alongside the iPhone 11 in September, iPhone owners and app developers were confronted with a litany of software glitches. Apps crashed or launched slowly. Cellular signal was inconsistent. There were user interface errors in apps like Messages, system-wide search issues and problems loading emails. Some new features, such as sharing file folders over iCloud and streaming music to multiple sets of AirPods, were either delayed or are still missing. This amounted to one of the most troubled and unpolished operating system updates in Apple's history.

"iOS 13 continues to destroy my morale," Marco Arment, a well known developer, wrote on Twitter. "Same," replied Jason Marr, co-creator of grocery list app AnyList. "Apple's really shown a lack of respect for both its developers and its customers with iOS 13."

The issues show how complex iPhones have become and how easily users can be disappointed by a company known for the smooth integration of hardware and software. Annual software updates timed for release with the latest iPhones are a critical way for Apple to add new capabilities and keep users from defecting to archrival Android. Refreshed operating systems also give developers more tools for app creation, catalyzing more revenue for Apple from its App Store.

Apple spokeswoman Trudy Muller declined to comment.

The new development process will help early internal iOS versions to be more usable, or "livable," in Apple parlance. Prior to iOS 14's development, some teams would add features every day that weren't fully tested, while other teams would contribute changes weekly. "Daily builds were like a recipe with lots of cooks adding ingredients," a person with knowledge of the process said.

Test software got so crammed with changes at different stages of development that the devices often became difficult to use. Because of this, some "testers would go days without a livable build, so they wouldn't really have a handle on what's working and not working," the person said. This defeated the main goal of the testing process as Apple engineers struggled to check how the operating system was reacting to many of the new features, leading to some of iOS 13's problems.

Apple measures and ranks the quality of its software using a scale of 1 to 100 that's based on what's known internally as a "white glove" test. Buggy releases might get a score in the low 60s whereas more stable software would be above 80. iOS 13 scored lower on that scale than the more polished iOS 12 that preceded it. Apple teams also assign green, yellow and red color codes to features to indicate their quality during development. A priority scale of 0 through 5, with 0 being a critical issue and 5 being minor, is used to determine the gravity of individual bugs.

The new strategy is already being applied to the development of iOS 14, codenamed "Azul" internally, ahead of its debut next year. Apple has also considered delaying some iOS 14 features until 2021 - in an update called "Azul +1" internally that will likely become known as iOS 15 externally - to give the company more time to focus on performance. Still, iOS 14 is expected to rival iOS 13 in the breadth of its new capabilities, the people familiar with Apple's plans said.

The testing shift will apply to all of Apple's operating systems, including iPadOS, watchOS, macOS and tvOS. The latest Mac computer operating system, macOS Catalina, has also manifested bugs such as incompatibility with many apps and missing messages in Mail. Some HomePod speakers, which run an iOS-based operating system, stopped working after a recent iOS 13 update, leading Apple to temporarily pull the upgrade. The latest Apple Watch and Apple TV updates, on the other hand, have gone more smoothly.

Apple executives hope that the overhauled testing approach will improve the quality of the company's software over the long term. But this isn't the first time that Apple engineers have heard this from management.

Last year, Apple delayed several iOS 12 features - including redesigns for CarPlay and the iPad home screen - specifically so it could focus on reliability and performance. At an all-hands meeting in January 2018, Federighi said the company had prioritized new features too much and should return to giving consumers the quality and stability that they wanted first.

Apple then established so-called Tiger Teams to address performance issues in specific parts of iOS. The company reassigned engineers from across the software division to focus on tasks such as speeding up app launch times, improving network connectivity and boosting battery life. When iOS 12 came out in the fall of 2018, it was a stable release that required just two updates in the first two months.

That success didn't carry over to this year. The initial version of iOS 13 was so buggy that Apple has had to rush out several patches. In the first two months of iOS 13, there have been eight updates, the most since 2012 when Federighi took over Apple's iOS software engineering group. The company is currently testing another new version, iOS 13.3, and there's already a follow-up in the works for the spring.

About a month before Apple's 2019 Worldwide Developers Conference in June, the company's software engineers started to realize that iOS 13, then known internally as "Yukon," wasn't performing as well as previous versions. Some people who worked on the project said development was a "mess."

By August, realizing that the initial iOS 13.0 set to ship with new iPhones a few weeks later wouldn't hit quality standards, Apple engineers decided to mostly abandon that work and focus on improving iOS 13.1, the first update. Apple privately considered iOS 13.1 the "actual public release" with a quality level matching iOS 12. The company expected only die-hard Apple fans to load iOS 13.0 onto their phones.

The timing of the iOS 13.1 update was moved up by a week to Sept. 24, compressing the time that iOS 13.0 was Apple's flagship OS release. New iPhones are so tightly integrated with Apple software that it would have been technically impossible to launch the iPhone 11 with iOS 12, and since 13.1 wasn't ready in time, Apple's only choice was to ship with 13.0 and update everyone to 13.1 as quickly as it could.

While the iOS 13 issues did upset iPhone owners, they still updated fairly quickly. As of mid-October, half of all Apple device users were running a version of iOS 13, according to Apple. That upgrade pace is still far ahead of Google's Android.

Once iOS 13.1 was released, Apple's software engineering division pivoted to iOS 13.2 with a quality goal of being better than iOS 12. This update has had fewer complaints than its predecessors in the iOS 13 family but did introduce a short-lived bug around apps closing in the background when they shouldn't.

"iOS 13 has felt like a super-messy release, something we haven't seen this bad since iOS 8 or so," Steve Troughton-Smith, a veteran developer of Apple apps, wrote on Twitter.

iOS 13最初版本漏洞百出 於是iOS 14測試流程變了

訪問:

蘋果在線商店(中國)

新方法要求蘋果開發團隊確保未來軟件更新的測試版，也就是所謂的“每日構建(Daily build)”，在默認情況下禁用未完成或有缺陷的所有功能。然後，測試人員可以通過一個稱為Flags的全新內部流程和設置菜單有選擇地啟用這些特性或功能，從而能夠將每個單獨添加特性會對系統產生何種影響相互隔離開來。

圖：蘋果軟件主管克雷格·費德里吉(Craig Federighi)正在對iOS 14的開發和測試進行全面改革，以便及早發現問題。

今年9月，當蘋果公司的iOS 13操作系統與iPhone 11系列智能手機同時發佈時，iPhone用戶和應用程序開發者發現了一連串的軟件故障：應用程序崩潰或啟動緩慢；手機信號參差不齊；應用程序出現了用戶界面錯誤，比如消息、系統搜索都出現問題，電子郵件也存在加載問題。而通過iCloud共享文件夾以及將音樂流媒體傳輸到多組AirPods上等新功能要么被推遲，要么仍未實現。毫不客氣的說，這次操作系統升級是是蘋果歷史上最麻煩、最粗糙的。

“iOS 13在繼續摧毀我的士氣，”知名開發者馬爾科·阿蒙德(Marco Arment)在Twitter上寫道。 “我也是，”購物清單應用AnyList聯合創始人傑森·馬爾(Jason Marr)說，“在iOS 13上，蘋果的表現的確是對開發者和用戶的不尊重。”

這些問題表明，iPhone已經變得有多複雜，而且用戶很容易對一家以軟硬件順暢整合而著稱的公司感到失望。對蘋果公司來說，每年跟隨最新款iPhone定時發佈軟件更新，是增加系統新功能、防止用戶轉向主要競爭對手Android的關鍵途徑。更新後的操作系統還為開發者提供了更多的應用程序開發工具，從而為蘋果的應用商店帶來了更多收入。

蘋果發言人特魯迪·穆勒(Trudy Muller)拒絕置評。

新的開發過程將有助於提高早期內部iOS操作系統版本的可用性，或者用蘋果的話說，（不同功能）更加“易於相處”。在iOS 14開發之前，有些團隊每天都會添加一些還沒有經過充分測試的功能，而其他團隊則每週都會對現有功能進行修改。 “每天的開發過程就像一整份食譜，但很多廚師都在添加配料，”一位了解開發過程的人士表示。

測試軟件在開發不同階段的變化是如此之多，以至於這些設備常常變得難以運行。由於這個原因，一些“測試人員會在一團糟的情況下將系統跑上幾天，所以他們根本不會真正清楚哪些功能會對系統產生何種作用。”該人士說。在這種情況下，由於蘋果工程師很難測試出操作系統對許多新添加功能的反應，從而導致iOS 13頻頻出現某些問題，因此也無法達到測試目標。

蘋果公司內部測試是所謂的“白手套”測試，用1到100的等級來衡量和排名其軟件整體質量。有問題的軟件版本得分可能在60分左右，而更穩定的軟件可能在80分以上。 iOS 13的得分低於之前更完善的iOS 12操作系統。在開發過程中，蘋果團隊還為軟件產品的功能特性分別設置了綠色、黃色和紅色的代碼，以顯示這種功能特性在開發過程中的質量。相應的優先級從0到5，其中0是關鍵問題，5是次要問題，用於確定單個軟件錯誤的嚴重性。

新策略已經被應用到代號為“Azul”的iOS 14系統開發中，該系統將於明年發布。蘋果還考慮將iOS 14的一些功能推遲到2021年發布，在公司內部這一更新被稱為“Azul +1”，也可能會以iOS 15公開發布，這也讓公司有更多時間關注操作系統性能。不過，熟悉蘋果計劃的人士表示，���計iOS 14在新功能的廣度上將與iOS 13不相上下。

測試策略的轉移將適用於所有蘋果的操作系統，包括iPadOS、watchOS、macOS和tvOS。最新的Mac電腦操作系統macOS Catalina也出現了一些問題，比如與許多應用程序不兼容，郵件中缺少信息。一些運行基於iOS操作系統的HomePod音箱在最近一次iOS 13更新後無法工作，導致蘋果暫時停止升級。另一方面，最新的蘋果電視和蘋果手錶系統更新則相對順利。

蘋果公司的高管們希望，從長遠來看，全面改革後的測試方法將提高公司軟件質量。但這並不是蘋果工程師第一次聽到管理層這麼說。

去年，蘋果曾推遲了iOS 12的幾項功能發布，其中包括對CarPlay和iPad主屏幕的重新設計，專注於提高可靠性和整體性能。在2018年1月的一次全體會議上，費德里吉表示，公司對新功能的重視程度過高，應該優先向消費者提供他們想要的質量和穩定性。

隨後，蘋果成立了所謂的“老虎團隊”來解決iOS特定部分的性能問題。該公司從整個軟件部門調派工程師，專注於加快應用程序啟動時間、改善網絡連接和延長電池壽命等任務。當iOS 12操作系統於2018年秋季發佈時，運行相當穩定，在頭兩個月內只進行了兩次更新。

這種成功沒有延續到今年的操作系統升級。 iOS 13的最初版本漏洞百出，以至於蘋果不得不匆忙發布了幾個補丁。在iOS 13發布的頭兩個月裡，已經進行了8次更新，是自2012年費德里吉接管蘋果iOS軟件工程部門以來最多的一次。該公司目前正在測試另一個新版本iOS 13.3，這本是要在明年春天進行的後續工作。

今年6月份蘋果召開了2019年度全球開發者大會。大約在此一個月前，該公司的軟件工程師就開始意識到，當時在公司內部被稱為Yukon的iOS 13表現不如之前的版本。一些參與這個項目的人說系統開發是一個“爛攤子”。

今年8月，蘋果工程師們意識到，幾週後與新iPhone一起發布的iOS 13.0根本無法達到質量標準，於是決定放棄對其進行修補，專注於改進後續的第一次更新版本iOS 13.1。蘋果私下里認為iOS 13.1是“真正的公開發布版本”，其質量水平與iOS 12相當。公司預計只有鐵桿蘋果粉絲才會在手機上安裝iOS 13.0操作系統。

9月24日蘋果發布了更新的iOS 13.1，這比既定時間提前了一周，也壓縮了iOS 13.0作為蘋果旗艦操作系統發布的時間。新iPhone與蘋果軟件緊密集成，因此從技術角度講，不可能推出搭載iOS 12操作系統的iPhone 11系列智能手機。由於新款手機發佈時iOS 13.1還沒能及時準備好，蘋果唯一的選擇就是發布iOS 13.0，並儘快讓所有人更新到iOS 13.1。

雖然iOS 13出現的問題確實讓iPhone用戶感到不安，但更新速度還是相當快。據蘋果稱，截至10月中旬，半數蘋果設備用戶都在運行iOS 13。這一升級速度仍遠遠領先於谷歌的Android。

iOS 13.1發布後，蘋果的軟件工程部門迅速轉向iOS 13.2，其質量目標是優於iOS 12。這次更新後的抱怨比iOS 13操作系統的前幾次更新都要少，但卻仍有一個錯誤，系統會在不應該關閉的情況下關閉後台的應用程序。

蘋果應用程序資深開發者史蒂夫·特勞頓-史密斯(Steve Troughton-Smith)在Twitter上寫道：“iOS 13給人的感覺就像是一個超級混亂的版本，自iOS 8以來我們從未見過如此糟糕的情況。”

iOS 14: Apple Changing How It Develops Its Software After Buggy iOS 13 Debut

Apple is overhauling how it tests software after a swarm of bugs marred the latest iPhone and iPad operating systems, according to people familiar with the shift. Software chief Craig Federighi and lieutenants including Stacey Lysik announced the changes at a recent internal “kickoff” meeting with the company’s software developers. The new approach calls for Apple’s development teams to ensure that test versions, known as “daily builds,” of future software updates disable unfinished or buggy features by default. Testers will then have the option to selectively enable those features, via a new internal process and settings menu dubbed Flags, allowing them to isolate the impact of each individual addition on the system.

When the company’s iOS 13 was released alongside the iPhone 11 in September, iPhone owners and app developers were confronted with a litany of software glitches. Apps crashed or launched slowly. Cellular signal was inconsistent. There were user interface errors in apps like Messages, system-wide search issues and problems loading emails. Some new features, such as sharing file folders over iCloud and streaming music to multiple sets of AirPods, were either delayed or are still missing. This amounted to one of the most troubled and unpolished operating system updates in Apple’s history.

“iOS 13 continues to destroy my morale,” Marco Arment, a well known developer, wrote on Twitter. “Same,” replied Jason Marr, co-creator of grocery list app AnyList. “Apple’s really shown a lack of respect for both its developers and its customers with iOS 13.”

The issues show how complex iPhones have become and how easily users can be disappointed by a company known for the smooth integration of hardware and software. Annual software updates timed for release with the latest iPhones are a critical way for Apple to add new capabilities and keep users from defecting to archrival Android. Refreshed operating systems also give developers more tools for app creation, catalyzing more revenue for Apple from its App Store.

Apple spokeswoman Trudy Muller declined to comment.

The new development process will help early internal iOS versions to be more usable, or “livable,” in Apple parlance. Prior to iOS 14’s development, some teams would add features every day that weren’t fully tested, while other teams would contribute changes weekly. “Daily builds were like a recipe with lots of cooks adding ingredients,” a person with knowledge of the process said.

Test software got so crammed with changes at different stages of development that the devices often became difficult to use. Because of this, some “testers would go days without a livable build, so they wouldn’t really have a handle on what’s working and not working,” the person said. This defeated the main goal of the testing process as Apple engineers struggled to check how the operating system was reacting to many of the new features, leading to some of iOS 13’s problems.

Apple measures and ranks the quality of its software using a scale of 1 to 100 that’s based on what’s known internally as a “white glove” test. Buggy releases might get a score in the low 60s whereas more stable software would be above 80. iOS 13 scored lower on that scale than the more polished iOS 12 that preceded it. Apple teams also assign green, yellow and red color codes to features to indicate their quality during development. A priority scale of 0 through 5, with 0 being a critical issue and 5 being minor, is used to determine the gravity of individual bugs.

The new strategy is already being applied to the development of iOS 14, codenamed “Azul” internally, ahead of its debut next year. Apple has also considered delaying some iOS 14 features until 2021 – in an update called “Azul +1” internally that will likely become known as iOS 15 externally – to give the company more time to focus on performance. Still, iOS 14 is expected to rival iOS 13 in the breadth of its new capabilities, the people familiar with Apple’s plans said.

The testing shift will apply to all of Apple’s operating systems, including iPadOS, watchOS, macOS and tvOS. The latest Mac computer operating system, macOS Catalina, has also manifested bugs such as incompatibility with many apps and missing messages in Mail. Some HomePod speakers, which run an iOS-based operating system, stopped working after a recent iOS 13 update, leading Apple to temporarily pull the upgrade. The latest Apple Watch and Apple TV updates, on the other hand, have gone more smoothly.

Apple executives hope that the overhauled testing approach will improve the quality of the company’s software over the long term. But this isn’t the first time that Apple engineers have heard this from management.

Last year, Apple delayed several iOS 12 features – including redesigns for CarPlay and the iPad home screen – specifically so it could focus on reliability and performance. At an all-hands meeting in January 2018, Federighi said the company had prioritized new features too much and should return to giving consumers the quality and stability that they wanted first.

Apple then established so-called Tiger Teams to address performance issues in specific parts of iOS. The company reassigned engineers from across the software division to focus on tasks such as speeding up app launch times, improving network connectivity and boosting battery life. When iOS 12 came out in the fall of 2018, it was a stable release that required just two updates in the first two months.

That success didn’t carry over to this year. The initial version of iOS 13 was so buggy that Apple has had to rush out several patches. In the first two months of iOS 13, there have been eight updates, the most since 2012 when Federighi took over Apple’s iOS software engineering group. The company is currently testing another new version, iOS 13.3, and there’s already a follow-up in the works for the spring.

About a month before Apple’s 2019 Worldwide Developers Conference in June, the company’s software engineers started to realize that iOS 13, then known internally as “Yukon,” wasn’t performing as well as previous versions. Some people who worked on the project said development was a “mess.”

By August, realizing that the initial iOS 13.0 set to ship with new iPhones a few weeks later wouldn’t hit quality standards, Apple engineers decided to mostly abandon that work and focus on improving iOS 13.1, the first update. Apple privately considered iOS 13.1 the “actual public release” with a quality level matching iOS 12. The company expected only die-hard Apple fans to load iOS 13.0 onto their phones.

The timing of the iOS 13.1 update was moved up by a week to Sept. 24, compressing the time that iOS 13.0 was Apple’s flagship OS release. New iPhones are so tightly integrated with Apple software that it would have been technically impossible to launch the iPhone 11 with iOS 12, and since 13.1 wasn’t ready in time, Apple’s only choice was to ship with 13.0 and update everyone to 13.1 as quickly as it could.

While the iOS 13 issues did upset iPhone owners, they still updated fairly quickly. As of mid-October, half of all Apple device users were running a version of iOS 13, according to Apple. That upgrade pace is still far ahead of Google’s Android.

Once iOS 13.1 was released, Apple’s software engineering division pivoted to iOS 13.2 with a quality goal of being better than iOS 12. This update has had fewer complaints than its predecessors in the iOS 13 family but did introduce a short-lived bug around apps closing in the background when they shouldn’t.

“iOS 13 has felt like a super-messy release, something we haven’t seen this bad since iOS 8 or so,” Steve Troughton-Smith, a veteran developer of Apple apps, wrote on Twitter.
