Apple’s iOS, which is two years older than Android, does not come with a pre-installed File Manager App. Users have to look for their own means of accessing their files saved in…wait, the OS does not have memory card support either. Things are about to change however, according to a recent leak, a file manager app will come with the new iOS version 11 which is being launched tonight. It seems even the team at Apple was so happy about this overdue feature that it placed it in the appstore before it’s announcement. The link has already been pulled down, as you would expect, but a hawk eyed user had already taken a screenshot.
Many other things will be introduced in the World Wide Developer Conference (WWDC) starting tonight at 8pm (GMT +3).
