Apple iOS 14
As per **reports so far** , iOS 14 is expected to come with improved multi-tasking. There are also rumours that in the latest version of the operating system, Apple may allow iPhone users to first try an application before they download it. Further, Apple CarKey API to unlock connected cars via an iPhone, improvements to iMessage, are also expected. A report in January also revealed that **iOS 14 will support the same iPhones that the iOS 13 supported** , which includes the iPhone SE.

Apple AirTags
The Verge has also reported that Apple’s rumoured tile-like AirTags are also on the table. These AirTags are expected to be circular discs that come with U1 chips that will help track your devices. As reported by MacRumours, AirTags are small tracking tiles with Bluetooth connectivity that can be used to find lost items. As per the report, “You will be able to use your iPhone, iPad and Mac to track the location of AirTags much like you do to find missing Apple devices.
