What's up guys?
And the official iOS 16 is finally here and
it's time to take a look at what's new.
This is the software that's going to ship with
the iPhone 14 right out of the box.
We just installed the iOS 16 Developer Beta,
which as you can see on the left
with the brand new lock screen look.
We'll be comparing the iOS 16 to the iOS 15
side by side to give you guys a quick look
at what has changed and quick look at the data
size of the IO 16 Developer Beta.
It is about five point 27 GB, so bit of a thick update.
Also, if you're rocking the iPhone seven, sadly
you're not going to get iOS 16.
If you have the iPhone eight and
above, then you are good to go.
But let's get down to the features and at the
home screen you can't really see anything that's changed.
It's pretty much similar to the iOS 15.
The biggest visual change is definitely on the
lock screen with a brand new personalized theme
Lock Screen Edition on the iOS 16.
So previously we just had this plain boring
looking lock screen on the iOS 15.
And now with iOS 16, the potential
of customizing your log screen is endless.
To play with this, head to Settings and then click
on Vapor and then when you add new Voiper, it
opens up this whole new world of customization.
It's almost like a theme option for your lock screen.
There are a couple of featured options that
you can play with weather and astronomy.
There's emoji, simple colors and
just collection of different things.
If we check out the astronomy, you can see we
have the Earth theme, you can have that zoomed look,
you can have moon, detailed moon look and solar system.
Then you can add widgets on here as well.
So a couple of options that you can choose from.
I'm pretty sure that you'll be able to add some
third party widgets here as well, but these are some
of the built in ones that you can use.
So once you are done with your widgets,
you can also play with the times so
you can check out the different font here.
Different color depending on if you want a lighter
or more saturated look, or just pick up any
color you want, which is pretty nice.
Again, there's a lot of options to choose
from whatever theme that you go with.
If you pick emojis, you'll have the ability to
again add your widgets, change the font of the
clock, plus you can add your emojis as well.
So complete customization.
Again, this is the emoji theme.
Different options here.
Small grid, medium, large, or you can just have
a ring of it depending on what you like.
Once you're satisfied with the look, you
can just press done and boom. That's it.
You're going to see this on your home screen
as well as on your notification or notificationlog screen.
This is kind of the same thing.
If you go back to the lock screen long pressing
the display will open this new menu where you can
quickly change between the themes that you have set.
So whether it's your photo theme or you can go
ahead and select the weather, whatever you have placed, you
can have endless row of look and customization saved up
for a new look whenever you want.
And you can also add quickly from this setting.
Now this is something that we had on Android for years
to be able to add stuff on your lock screen.
But of course the way Apple has done is
also very, very good and it's kind of nice.
I'm pretty sure a lot of
people will love the implementation.
Now we're not done with the logs in and because
we have a new look for the music player.
So instead of taking the space in the
middle, it's now placed nicely at the bottom.
Moving on, we also have better log screen
notification ergonomics, so they just kind of expand
and go down which is really good.
And of course they also bundle
up depending on the application.
Definitely a nicer cleaner implementation
compared to the iOS 15.
Now next up we have some cool features
coming into the imessage where you can actually
unseen and also edit your message.
So let me show you a quick demo of how this will work.
So I'm just going to send this message and I'm going to
hold on to my text and click on send and that's it.
The message is gone.
Now this will only work in under 15 minutes.
Like when you send a message you have
like 15 minutes to unsend the text.
After that, this option will be gone.
Also it will only work if the person
on the other hand also has iOS 16.
So if they're running the older version of
iOS, this will sadly not going to work.
Now in the same way you can edit your messages as well.
So quickly go to edit.
Again, you only have 15 minutes to do
this, so just going to correct this to
something nice and boom, that's it.
It will be mentioned as editor so the other person
will know that you have changed the original text.
Now on the home screen there's nothing
really changed except they have added the
spotlight search option right on the front.
I mean you can do this the old way as well by
swiping down, but you can also now do this by just tapping.
Also you can notice that the search bar
is down here which is very reachable.
Last year Apple added the ability to copy text from
the photos, but now you can copy text from videos
as well and it works really nicely just like you
expect it to work, which is super helpful.
Next up we have Face ID working in landscape
mode, so I am 16 adds that ability.
Now it doesn't work on my iPhone Twelve Pro.
It seems like it might actually be exclusive
to the iPhone 13 future iPhone 14 users.
Next up, we have some new additions to Siri and
you can see that previously Siri was kind of dumb.
It had no ability to add any emojis.
But now with IO 16, Siri can actually show emotions.
Let me show you guys a quick demo his theory.
Send a message to Dave.
Hi, what's up?
Laughing emoji, sad emoji, angry emoji, you can
say send it or change it, send it.
You can see now it adds up
the emojis and that's how it looks.
Now this applies to dictation as well.
If I say laughing emoji, sad emoji, crying emoji, you can
see that it picks up really nicely and you can just
add emotions to pretty much anything that you say.
Also, iOS 16 brings haptic to the keyboard,
which makes this look even more premium.
If you go to the Sound and haptics
in the settings and go to keyboard feedback
there you can see the Haptic tool.
Now speaking of settings, IO 16 has this option
for the AirPods right outside the main settings.
You don't have to go to Bluetooth and yeah, it's
all very nicely organized compared to the previous versions.
One of my new favorite features with
IO 16 is the Personalized Special Audio.
This actually uses the TrueDepth Camera system
to take a full scan of your
environment, giving you a proper personalized spatial
audio experience based on your environment.
With iOS 16, users can finally see
their passwords, which is pretty cool.
So it does require the Face ID.
So if I quickly scan my face, you can see that
I can actually see the WiFi password, which is pretty cool.
Now we have some new much needed additions
to the Photos app, so you can now
actually see the duplicates of your pictures so
you can delete them and have more storage.
Also, you can see that we have more
security for the hidden and recently deleted Gallery.
So now in order to access that, I
would have to do the Face ID scan.
And yeah, this is again very nice
security addition that we didn't have before.
Now with a new favorite IO 16
feature is the ability to schedule emails.
So if you just press and hold on the send button, you
can see that we have a couple of options to select.
Or you can send it later and select your
own time so it gives you a full calendar.
You can pretty much schedule an email for whatever
date literally all the way up to 2000 or
whatever date you want to pick up, even whatever
time you want to pick up.
So yeah, it's a pretty good addition.
Now Apple has improved the security even more.
Third party applications will have to take permission to
see what you have copied on your clipboard.
Also with iOS 16, Apple introduces the seamless
security update meaning the security updates will be
installed seamlessly in the background of your iPhone
without the need for restarting the device.
Also, Apple is making the shared album icloud feature
more seamless for those of you who are using
it so you can just take a photo and
basically it gets uploaded to that album automatically.
You'll be able to change the setting right through
the camera application but I feel like a lot
of people can make mistakes but yeah it's another
new addition and looking at the camera UI you
can see there's nothing really changed.
It's pretty much like before these were some of my favorite
IO 16 features and I got to say I'm really happy
to see this redesigned lock screen look and the way Apple
has done it is pretty good as well creating this sort
of themed look and also giving users the ability to completely
change the look on the go with just a few tap.
Again, this is the first developer beta
so it's not even the public beta.
I do not recommend you guys to install this on
your main device so we're going to see more beta
with public beta coming out next month in July Apple
will definitely Polish the iOS 16 even more.
Let me know what's your favorite
feature in the comment section below.

that being said, I'll see you guys later. Peace out.
