The recent announcement of Apple brought the iOS 11 to life. This version offers upgraded and advanced features for iPhone and iPad users. It includes additional functions that are very useful to everyday life. Some of them are WiFi password sharing, one-hand keyboard, and QR code support. There's also an improvement on their Siri and camera applications. What makes this update more exciting is the hidden built-in screen recorder. This is a big step towards improving the Apple productivity because up to now people still find difficulty in searching for the perfect recorder on iPhone/iPad. With the help of this feature, users can easily create tutorial videos with their iOS devices.
