Slick new tricks are on the way for Live Photos. The camera will use more efficient algorithms and file formats for photos and videos, which means they’ll take up less space than before. It will also start “reading” the text on your screen so you can do things like spell complicated words you’ve just looked at - like Reykjavik - more easily. Siri will translate queries into other languages, including French, Spanish and Chinese will support more third-party apps via the SiriKit developers kit that Apple released last year and will have more context for proactive suggestions.
