I hope the Vision Pro will get Screen Distance as well.

I hope the Vision Pro will get Screen Distance as well.

Yeah, I thought it was kinda funny when they announced both at literally the same event

I love that private browsing is behind a Face ID authentication. I hope they bring this to all safari profiles as an option. If youre home and want to hand your phone or iPad to the kids, it’s fine that they can access your Personal profile but they shouldn’t be able to open your Work profile without authentication. Easy to implement this since each profile has its own settings.

Automatically cleaning up the verification codes is really helpful!

Sharing Airtags is easily in the top 5

Sharing Airtags is easily in the top 5

I'll be upgrading day one for that reason alone. No more "you're being tracked" notifications when you're using the car keys

Interesting video @Dan Barbera

I didn’t know 7 of those 15 new features!

Sorry, but in what sense are these features hidden? AFAIK iOS 17 hasn’t been released yet. Even so, Apple have already talked about many of these Features

Would be nice to have a recent apps folder of more than 8, right now I use the Siri suggestion pull down but you can't pull down if you're in a sub folder.

Would be nice to long press on an app and also have a Settings option.

Would be nice if you could choose more than the two zoom features, maybe a fine granular control option.

Very good video. Screen distance and FaceID for locking private browsing are good.

I just want split screen like my Samsung flip does it (or any Samsung does I think) on my iPhone 13 PM.

I’m tired of links to YouTube & Twitter. I guess it’s no more videos for me! 👀

I’m super excited for AirTag sharing!
