iOS 7 Features Apple Didn’t Get a Chance to Talk About Today [LIST]

During its two-hour long WWDC 2013 keynote presentation, Apple was only able to focus on 10 key iOS 7 features. Here is a list of features that weren’t talked about but we can expect when iOS 7 goes public this fall (expect more info when the iPhone beta releases today for developers).

The complete list, starting with the larger items, taken from the following slide screenshot:
