First introduced at WWDC earlier this year, Apple's new payments system is one of the few iOS 11 features we have yet to see in action. Though we got a brief taste of the payments during the WWDC keynote, it hasn't been part of the developer or public betas for iOS 11.

You can ask Siri to pay someone or use the new "Apple Pay" feature in iMessage. The money will automatically be taken out of the cards linked to your Apple Wallet. If you're on the receiving end of one of these transactions, the money will be added to an "Apple Pay Cash card," which is also added to your Apple Wallet.
It's not the only iOS 11 feature that won't be ready as soon as iOS 11 drops. Apple Maps new indoor navigation features, which help people navigate indoor spaces like airports and shopping malls, will also be launching in later update, Apple said.
