On Monday Apple released iOS 9.3, its latest software update for the iPhone and iPad.

Now that the update is out, here are the two biggest features you should know about:

Night Shift mode will make it easier to read at night.

Plenty of scientific research has shown that it can be harmful to look at your smartphone's screen at night — doing so can negatively affect your sleep quality and cause even more serious health problems.

Apple's Night Shift mode automatically makes the display's color palette warmer as the sun sets. Check out our detailed Night Shift guide for more.

You can secure the Notes app with your fingerprint.

If you want to make sure prying eyes can't peep your notes in the Notes app, iOS 9.3 lets you lock individual notes with a password or your Touch ID fingerprint. Tap the share menu from a note and "Add Password" to get started.
