— Web developers including Grammarly and Honey are now building extensions in Safari that are available across iPhone, iPad, and Mac. Developers can even create new, powerful extensions in the Mail app.

— Third-party navigation apps can now show a map view in a vehicle’s instrument cluster display, and a new CarPlay® simulator for Mac vastly improves testing efficiency.

— Apps can offer the theater-like experience of spatial audio and place sounds all around to bring their content to life. And Physical Audio Spatialization Engine (PHASE) makes it easy for game developers to render true-to-life audio across all of Apple’s platforms.

— ShazamKit™ enables developers to integrate audio recognition technology directly from Shazam® into their apps, making it possible not only to match music to Shazam's vast catalog of songs, but also to match any prerecorded audio to custom results developers create.
