iOS 11 file manager app and split view drag and drop leaked ahead of keynote

It looks like Apple is about to loosen some more shackles off iOS and introduce some much requested features that will increase productivity on the platform.

Ahead of iOS 11, a 'Files' app placeholder entry from Apple appears on the App Store. Requires iOS 11.0 or later 😘 pic.twitter.com/8HAQflHBuI

The first leak is that of the Files, a file manager app for iOS. Yes, you read that right. iOS is finally getting a file manager. The app "accidentally" showed up on the App Store but was later pulled down. There weren't any screenshots and not much of a description but it was available for both, iPhone and iPad, and required iOS 11 and above.

Just in case you wanted another iOS 11 spoiler (this is an option in the Feedback app when filing a bug) /via @charavel pic.twitter.com/mQVlJjZbb4

The second leak is for split view drag and drop. This showed up as an option in the Feedback app while filing a bug. This feature will allow users to drag and drop files between two open apps in split view on the iPad. Since Split View is only available on the iPad (for now) this should be limited to only the iPad but will help improve productivity.

We are about seven hours away from WWDC keynote where this and more will be officially revealed.
