"textContent": "iOS 27's key new feature is a more intelligent and personal version of Siri, but the changes go well beyond that. In a press release today, Apple outlined additional enhancements coming across Apple Maps, Find My, Apple Wallet, Apple Music, and more.\n\n\nApple Maps has gained an enhanced Flyover experience powered by AI, enabling you to view aerial imagery in \"stunning detail\" for select cities.\n\nIn the U.S., Apple Maps has also received a new Local Lists feature, which surfaces things such as trending restaurants and kid-friendly places to visit.\n\nIn the Find My app, you will have the ability to share your location with others for a custom duration, such as four days and six hours. Or, you can set a set an exact date and time for your location sharing to expire. In addition, you can now pause your location sharing with specific people until the end of the day.\n\n\nOn iOS 26 and earlier, there are only three preset timeframes available: indefinitely, until end of day, and one hour.\n\nIn the U.S., iOS 27 allows you to split bills with a new feature powered by Apple Cash and Apple Intelligence. This capability is available in the Messages and Apple Wallet apps, or by using the new Siri mode in the Camera app.\n\n\"When users point their iPhone at a receipt using Siri mode, it can surface the relevant action to split a bill with Apple Cash and identify the items on the receipt,\" said Apple. \"As users select their items, their total payment is calculated, including their share of tax and tip, so they can pay back exactly what they owe with Apple Cash.\"\n\n\nYou can now create custom passes in Apple Wallet from physical cards, like loyalty or membership cards. With the Siri mode in the Camera app, you can simply point your iPhone at any physical card with a barcode and save it to Apple Wallet. Once added, passes are ready to present as a barcode or QR code right from the iPhone.\n\niOS 27 provides an enhanced Apple Wallet key experience for participating hotels and resorts. You can view more details about your trips, receive updates about booked activities, access services available during your stay, and more.\n\nApple Pay's checkout flow on the web and in apps is getting an updated design that allows you to swipe to switch payment cards. And if you have an eligible card in Apple Wallet, it will be accompanied by more information, including rewards balances, debit account balances, pay later options, and more.\n\nAs part of the Tap to Pay on iPhone feature, new Tap to Share functionality allows you to connect to a participating small business owner's iPhone and securely share shipping information, email addresses, loyalty rewards, and more.\n\nIn the Apple Podcasts app, there is a new \"search within show\" feature.\n\nIn the Photos app, iCloud Shared Albums now support full-resolution sharing, more file types, emoji reactions, and more. Even people without an Apple device can now join and contribute photos to these shared albums on the web.\n\nIn the Apple Music app, Apple said the AutoMix feature has \"even better transitions\" that feel \"more immersive and engaging for listeners.\" Introduced in iOS 26, AutoMix adds seamless, DJ-like transitions between songs.\n\nApple Music's Lyrics Translation feature is expanding to seven additional language pairings: English to French, English to German, English to Italian, English to Korean, English to Spanish, French to English, and Japanese to English.\n\nApple's press release provides more details about these features and a few others.\n\niOS 27 is currently available in developer beta, with a public beta to follow in July. The update is expected to be released in September.\n\nRelated Roundup: iOS 27\n\nTags: Apple Maps, Apple Music, Apple Wallet, Find My\n\n\nThis article, \"Apple Says iOS 27 Adds These 12 New Features to Your iPhone\" first appeared on MacRumors.com\n\nDiscuss this article in our forums\n\n",
