BETA YOURSELF
iOS 15
It’s that time of year again, and your iPhone will never be the same… Craig Grannell delves into the latest version of iOS to find the best bits – including a trio of revamped Apple apps
THE BASICS
■ Find your Focus
The blunt tool Do Not Disturb now has a more refined sibling, Focus, which blocks out distractions in a way that’s context-specific. For each Focus you can define a schedule, people and apps who can notify you, and home screens you want to hide. You can also manually turn on a Focus from Control Centre.
■ Play with your friends
In FaceTime, you’ll soon be able to kick off SharePlay sessions to sync movie/album playback with friends. You can easily find links sent in Messages via Shared With You in News, TV, Music, Safari, Podcasts and Photos. Handily, Photos automatically adds to your library those pics you were there for.
