Apple has announced new software and privacy tools as it seeks to expand service offerings to its estimated 1.4 billion device users. The announcements came during Apple’s Worldwide Developers Conference happening this week in San Jose, California. The changes are another clear sign of Apple’s attempts to expand its offerings to make up for dropping iPhone demand worldwide. iPhone sales fell sharply during the past two financial quarters. For iPhone users, Apple announced the launch of its iOS 13 operating system, to be available this fall. The new version comes with several new features. One is a setting for the iPhone called “dark mode.” The feature, already available on Mac computers, turns the background of the device black. Apple says dark mode is designed to make everything on the screen easier on the eyes.
