3. New ‘Focus’ Modes
As an upgrade to the ‘Do Not Disturb’ mode that has always been a core feature of iOS, Apple introduced the new ‘Focus’ modes for iOS 15. These modes can help you optimize for sleep, work, and personal periods. You can filter notifications, signal to friends when you’re not available, and hide distractions without missing important stuff.
4. Copy Text From Photo
iOS 15 comes with the ability to copy text from an image. Previously, you could only do this with the help of third-party apps like Google Lens. But now, if you see text, email, or a phone number you need to use on an image, you can directly copy them.
5. New FaceTime Audio Modes
FaceTime, on iOS 15, comes with new audio modes that are meant to make your experience a lot better. There’s the Wide Spectrum mode that lets your Facetime audio pick up sounds from the background. And there’s the Voice Isolation mode that filters just your voice. Both modes can be used depending on what your need on any FaceTime call is.
