iOS 18 features revealed

Apple detailed a host of new features for the upcoming update to its smartphone operating system for iPhones — iOS 18 — at the Worldwide Developers Conference (WWDC) 2024.

Among the biggest changes are support for the RCS messaging protocol and emergency satellite communication in Messages, app icon customisation, control centre sections, and a big Photos app revamp.

Look you can now spend 2 hours setting up an iPhone
A feature that many Android users will likely have taken for granted for many years — the ability to arrange app icons around your home screen pages — will become available in iOS 18.

They have finally sorted out photos, though not sure if all these features will be released on all phones

If experience had taught me anything, it probably needs the custom Photos App hardware chip

Samsung smartphones continue to dominate the South African market

Well you brought up a SIM being stolen. If you're that worried, you should be more worried about your life because in the process of taking your phone the criminal may end your life. To each their own.

I think iOS really has a come a long way over the years & appealing to many more folk.

It wasn't long ago that it really was pretty aweful with no real appeal - but look where they are today!

Lol just not you.

Becoming more like Android each year, topkek.

 

[Dolby]

Lol just not you.

Let’s be honest here - it really was unappealing. Would you have got one in the past? You hated them

Every year it’s getting closer to what Android does, which makes it appealing

Will be interesting to see how well RCS on iPhones plays with Google Message's.
