    When Apple released iOS 13.2 at the end of last month, it brought the Deep Fusion feature to the new 2019 iPhone models. Before the shutter is snapped on the iPhone 11, iPhone 11 Pro and the iPhone 11 Pro Max, eight exposures of a scene are captured using various exposures. Including the image taken when the shutter is tapped, these nine exposures are compared pixel-by-pixel using the A13 Bionic's Neural Processing Unit (NPU) to create a detailed final image with less noise.

    The iOS 13.2 update also included 59 new emoji and debuted the Announce Messages with Siri feature. The latter allows someone using a device that employs Apple's H1 chip (like the second-generation AirPods and the AirPods Pro) to have their messages read by Siri. Once the virtual assistant reads a message, the user can immediately dictate a reply to Siri who types it out and disseminates it.

    But there is a problem with the latest iOS update that several Apple Communities members and Redditors are complaining about. It seems to be an issue with memory management. So let's say that an iPhone user is watching a YouTube video and pauses a video to answer a call. When he or she tabs back to YouTube, the video is gone. As one Reddit member wrote, "Nothing is more frustrating than pausing a YouTube video then coming back to find the app is refreshed and the video is gone. I know it’s in my watch history but it’s ridiculous that the app would completely refresh." The phrase that almost all of these complaints mentions is that iOS 13.2 is too aggressive in killing apps.

    Many iOS users say that their iPhones and iPads have no multitasking capabilities after updating to iOS and iPadOS 13.2
