My favorite new feature (as of this writing) has to be Dark Mode. Having a background in coding and development, I quickly learned about eye fatigue \u2013 text editors like Sublime Text and BBedit that had Dark Themes were a lifesaver. The contrast of light-on-dark, as opposed to dark-on-light, made all the difference in the world and allowed me to code well into the wee hours.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Now with the new Dark Mode in iOS 13, we can all have our noses buried in our devices for 16 hours a day instead of 12.
