iOS 13: AirPods, CarPlay, Shortcuts, HomePod
What's new starts with AirPods. With iOS 13 we can receive notifications with the voice of Siri when we are exercising, for example, and interact by issuing a response directly. We can also send the sound of our iPhone or iPad to other AirPods, that is, we can hear the same sound from our iPhone in several headphones at the same time, without cables and without applications.
In relation to the HomePod the more than 100.000 radio stations available in applications such as iHeartRadio or other applications. In this way we can directly reproduce this content on our HomePod, without applications and without work for the user, just talk to Siri.
Beyond that appeared carplay. Improvements have been made to the home screen such as the new calendar app. It is also allowed to display Maps and Music at the same time, improving not only the interface but also the fluidity on the screen. In addition, Siri will stop cluttering the screen by hovering below the screen. It is also worth highlighting the integrations with Waze and Pandora.
On the other hand, the Siri's voice, what we know as "Text to Speach", that is, the fluidity with which Siri treats your responses. Fluency has been improved and now it seems that the reply is more fluent. However, it is a test and we will see in the first betas if this is so.
