    I always liked watching these videos to see how far behind apple is on features.

    You can restart the device by asking Siri

      Such an idiotic statement. Here you are watching what’s new in iOS. smh. More of the “Android has that” bullcrap. SO when did you get there new android update? Oh ya you can’t. if your 70% of all android users. Who are on a OS that’s at least 2 years old. Nothing like IOS. Fist don’t mean better and most android users won’t get android 15 for another 2 years. Lol

    It’s amusing how some will be wowed by these since they have been on Android for years now ( as early as the S3 ) , I however view this as making the switch from iPhone to Android less traumatizing, while at the same time make those who switch from Android to iPhone feel short changed because there is still features lacking. One for example is the muting an incoming call just by flipping the phone face down. ( just saying )

    iOS 18 made Siri on my 14 pro worst. I used to ask how many steps I’ve walked and she would tell me, now she tells me she can’t help me with that and to look at the fitness app. Most of the time she won’t speak out loud or she just answers with a “huh?”.
    I used to be able to ask follow up questions, for example, I would ask for the weather and after she would answer I could ask for the weather in a different location without the need to say hey Siri. Not anymore. Hopefully there’s an update next week to fix this before 18.1.

    Can you change the icon shapes to circle?
    Can you change the keyboard height and not just make the letters and numbers bigger?
    Can you do a scrolling screenshot on a third-party app or browser?
    Does the iPhone have a multi -band EQ?

    Makes sense??? Sharing Wi-Fi passwords – EZ job, piece of cake. Scroll, tap, scroll, tap, tap, tap, scroll…tap, SCAN… Instead of “Hey, what’s your pass for the Wi-Fi”?
