Apple just updated your iPhone and here’s the best new hidden feature

This update to Apple’s operating system brings bug fixes to the iPhone and iPad, but there’s also some new features including support for external cameras and SD cards.

This means you can finally plug in your camera or card reader to your Apple device and import pictures directly without having to go near an computer.

Once connected, the photos app will appear on the screen allowing you to choose which images you’d like to transfer.

For this to work you will need to buy a Lightning to USB Camera Adapter or a Lightning to SD Card Reader but it will make it easier and faster to get photos on your phone.

As well as external photo support Apple has added Mail Drop, which was previously only available to Mac owners.

This uses iCloud to send large attachments alongside emails – up to a staggering 5GB.

iBooks has also seen a couple of tweaks and improvements, including support for Apple's new 3D Touch mechanism on the iPhone 6S and 6S Plus.

• You can now create a new playlist when adding a song to a playlist

• Your most recently changed playlist is now listed at the top when adding songs to playlists

• Download albums or playlists from your iCloud Music Library by tapping the iCloud download button

• See which songs have been downloaded with the new download indicator next to each song in My Music and Playlists

• See works, composers, and performers while browsing Classical music in the Apple Music catalog
