iOS 11.3 Updates <\/strong><\/h4>\n
Health Records App<\/u><\/h6>\n

Few things are more annoying than dragging yourself to the doctor\u2019s office and struggling to find your medical info on your phone. That\u2019s why the new Health Records app keeps all of your downloaded medical records in one easy-to-access place. It will have a passcode and will organize any personal health information sent to your phone. This includes lab results, health insurance info, medications and much more.<\/p>\n

Better Battery Control<\/u><\/h6>\n

In light of the recent Apple battery debacle, the company has included an option in this iOS update to view your current battery\u2019s health. The issue was some sneaky throttling on Apple\u2019s part that was to prevent unplanned shutdowns. The company heard the voice of the public and has implemented the new battery feature on this upcoming iOS update.<\/p>\n

iMessage Tamed<\/u><\/h6>\n

If you\u2019re an avid Apple user, you\u2019re probably aware of the iMessage struggle that occurs across your devices. It often takes a minute or two for the messages to load and sync. With the iOS 11.3 update, all of your messages will be syncing with iCloud. This means you can open up more space on your devices while keeping your messages in the cloud, much like a photo stream.<\/p>\n

Welcome, ARKit 1.5<\/u><\/h6>\n

As if augmented reality wasn\u2019t cool enough, Apple is deciding to give its users even more with iOS 11.3. The more immersive AR will soon allow for vertical placement<\/a>, meaning you can integrate your AR apps to display objects on walls, doors, and much more. New mapping can also recognize round surfaces as well, breaking free from solely square platforms.<\/p>\n
