Anyone who thinks we're "done" with masks is being woefully naive, I'm afraid. We'll *never again* be completely done needing masks.

The notes function inside the enclave is one of the most welcome updates I’ve seen in a while. Allows you to place recovery keys and phrases along with passwords, making the whole experience much better. That being said, I’d also like them to drop the domain-based restriction for keychain on iOS as there are some things I’d like to keep in password as well, I.E: Personal Health Number which isn’t associated with a domain so I just use a dummy like phn.com, so I’d like to see the ability to add text-based entries as well.

This! I won't be able to ditch 1Password until this is possible.

So we can have a "Pregnant Man" emoji but still not a freaking redhead / ginger version of all the faces? Redheads are about 2% of the world's population, which is a hell of a lot more than pregnant men. :-(

I dread the day when Apple would release a new iOS version and there won’t be a single new Emoji to calm my restless soul.

Is it just me or is it the first time ever that you now come out of an update with iCloud Drive toggled on? It’s the one Apple cloud service I don’t use.

Yip i just noticed that too. After installing the update you get a Welcome to iCloud Drive message with no option not to enable it or skip it. I've had to go in and disable it again as I don't use it.

I guess it was not in the news, that iOS 15.4 crippled My Photo Stream, by excluding HEIF photos from supported formats?
It now works only with JPGs, so you need to waste storage on your phone or start paying bigger iCloud tax.

Nicely done!
