While those Apple Intelligence features are garnering most of the attention, there are other notable features coming to the iPhone next month. Head below for a roundup of all the non-AI features coming to your iPhone as part of iOS 18.2.
Apple today shared a new Apple Pay ad ahead of the holidays, promoting the service's ease of use for online shopping. With Apple Pay, a stored card can be used for a purchase with just Face ID or Touch ID authentication, allowing for quick purchases.
Apple has now classified the iPhone 6s Plus and iPhone XS Max as "vintage" worldwide. Apple considers a device to be "vintage" once five years have passed since the company stopped distributing it for sale. Apple and Apple Authorized Service Providers sometimes offer repairs for vintage devices, but only if parts remain available.
When removing multiple overlapping or nearby selections, the order in which you remove them may make a difference. If you’re unhappy with the initial result, try removing objects in a different order.
In June 2024, Apple announced some much-anticipated options to further customize Home Screens. From placing app icons anywhere and personalizing Control Center, to setting up dark …and tinted app icons. Yeah. You know. I feel it too.
I’m not here to mourn, though. Instead, I want to share a few tips I learned while crafting a tinted variant for our iOS app. I barely see anyone else mentioning or making use of these: alternate brand marks and alpha gradients (done the right way).
It is great that it is not only Apple Intelligence that will be rolled out over the next few OS updates. There are also other useful non-AI features.
But, back in my mind, I do wonder: if Apple didn't 'have to' push out A.I. features in this year of OS releases, would all these other non-AI features be done in the dot-zero release?
