Wide Field Camera 3 is the most used science instrument on HST since its installation in May 2009 during Servicing Mission 4. This presentation reviews its in-flight performance and calibration with particular attention to topics relevant to Cycle 19 Phase 2 proposers. The new capability for Charge Injection in the UVIS channel to mitigate radiation damaged induced charge transfer inefficiency will be discussed. Results from recent tests to commission a capability to perform spatial scans to enable higher S/N spectroscopy of bright target will presented. Ongoing improvements to the photometric, flat field, and spectroscopy calibrations will be summarized.
