In the early morning of June 8th, Beijing time, Apple launched the latest versions of many of its systems. When I got up early, without saying anything, I upgraded my iPhone first.
is different from last year. My first impression of iOS 15 is more like a concentrated and enhanced version of iOS 14. It still uses the previous overall design and ideas, but there are some changes in the actual use details. In addition to the new features implemented in
on FaceTime, iMeassge and the addition of SharePlay, I also discovered the following changes in details.
1.
iOS 15 adds focus mode, which filters notifications and calls based on the user’s focus needs. For example, after setting it to "work mode", your friends can see your status through apps such as iMessage, and you can only receive push messages from the apps you specify. Of course, in addition to the work mode, you can also set many custom modes to make the phone more user-friendly.
2.
What I like most in iOS 15 is the new text recognition function, which can be regarded as a new detail added by Apple to the system.
For example, if you turn on the camera interface, or take and capture pictures in the album, you can directly perform "text recognition". Of course, whether it is handwritten words, store signs, or roadside advertisements, the recognition will be no problem. After identification, you can select the target for copy or paste operations, and the efficiency will take off.
3.
alarm clock, it finally returns to the scroll wheel setting! At the same time, it feels very mechanical. In iOS 14, alarm clocks that are small in size and require manual input are really annoying. Every time I set a new alarm clock, my blood pressure will rise a little bit.
4.
The weather app brings a new design, adding high-resolution in-app maps and new background animations that will change according to the weather, no longer as "monotonous and boring" as before.
5.
desktop, finally, the entire page can be moved. Compared with iOS 14, this has greatly shortened the "fluttering" time for those who have difficulty in app layout. Even if several of your apps are misplaced, it doesn’t matter. Now we can switch the whole page back and forth without any delay.
6.
For imaging workers, photo information is an indispensable reference element. I used to wonder why the iPhone, which focuses on imaging, does not support it.
Now it's finally here.
7.
The “health” app I care about most has added health trends in iOS 15. These include resting heart rate , sleep and aerobic fitness. You can learn the progress of specific indicators and continuously observe changes in your health status.
Of course you can also set goals, such as increasing your running distance or meditation time. If you want to monitor health status in other areas, such as insulin index, you can connect third-party device data to the health app to obtain trend analysis information.
You can even privately share your body data with medical staff through the new sharing tab in the Health App.
8.
It has become much easier to use Safari browser to convert tags on iPhone. Compared with before, you can now slide directly below or enter full-screen mode selection. Safari browser also adds a new custom background image.
As usual, the new systems and services launched on WWDC this year are all interconnected and shared under the Apple ecosystem. For example, Universal Control connects different devices in series. Users can easily transfer files between Mac, iPhone and iPad. Drag and drop operations. Another example is AirPlay to Mac, which allows users to extend or copy content on an Apple device to the Mac screen.
I once asked my friends who have been using iOS devices all year round why they keep choosing them. The worry-free operation and no need to "fiddle around" are the answers they most often give me. This may also be the reason why iOS and iPadOS are comfortable to choose.
