iOS 13.4 and iPadOS 13.4 now available with new and improved features
The software update comes two months after the release of iOS 13.3.1 and iPadOS 13.3.1.

Apple has released iOS 13.4 and iPadOS 13.4 with some major updates to the operating systems. The software update comes two months after the release of iOS 13.3.1 and iPadOS 13.3.1.
One of the most notable changes here is the trackpad support for iPadOS 13.4, which Apple announced alongside the new iPad Pro models. The trackpad update supports Magic Mouse, Magic Mouse 2, Magic Trackpad, Magic Trackpad 2, and third-party mouse connected over USB or Bluetooth.
Another improved bit is the new toolbar in the Mail app that shows up when viewing an email. Previously, the delete icon and reply icon were placed next to each other, which let some accidental touches on the delete icon. That now stands resolved with the new toolbar that also adds Folder and Compose icons.
The software update brings iCloud Drive folder sharing from the Files app as well as bug fixes and improvements. You can have a look on the full iOS 13.4 changelog below.
