iOS 13.2 seems to have also confirmed the name of their rumored Title-like competitor: "AirTag". A folder labeled AirTag appears in the iOS 13.2 file system along with a "BatterySwap" video asset that specifies the user how to swap the AirTag battery. AirTag must be used with the Find My app to locate missing items. AirTag can also be connected to your iPhone, iPad, Mac and other devices via Bluetooth.
Not just AirTag, iOS 13.2 also confirmed that Apple is in the work for a Smart Battery Case for iPhone 11, 11 Pro, 11 Pro Max, and it would probably come out before the end of the year, in time for the Christmas shopping season.
As for tvOS 13.2, no major changes or features were found within the update, so it's most likely to bring bug fixes and performance improvements.
But, the new HomePod software received a number of changes, including the ability for HomePod to recognize the voices of different family members to provide a personalized experience, Handoff music, podcasts, or phone calls by bringing your iPhone close to HomePod, add music to your HomeKit scenes, play relaxing high-quality soundtracks with Ambient Sounds, Set sleep timers to fall asleep to music or Ambient Sounds.
