Drag and Drop, new Files app raise speculation of new iOS 11 features

By Gadjo Cardenas Sevilla

San Jose- Apple sees iOS on the iPad as a bona-fide operating system that can accomplish most of, if not more than, notebooks and desktop PCs.

One of the biggest limitations of Apple's iOS is that it lacks a user-accessible file system. macOS' Finder never made it to mobile but that looks like it is about to change. A leak showing a new Files app and hints towards Drag and Drop functionality will give iOS users more latitude and flexibility on using their iPad and iPad Pro devices more like traditional PCs. We'll know more in a few hours as the WWDC 2017 kicks off in San Jose.
