As someone who's been using iPhones since iOS 2 or iOS 3 (don't exactly remember).. it's pretty crazy to see how far it's come and how much different functionality and features (and layers of the interface) everything has now. When you consider the entire scope of manufacturing chips to nanometer precision and integrating all the parts and all the Billions of lines of software code, etc.. it's truly amazing.
There is odd animation I just saw on accident. It’s a nice small little touch added. When u push the volume up or down. The screen will float in like a water ripple. U have to be looking for it to see it. It’s a nice small polish
iPhone 14 Pro. Just installed iOS 18 official release. The WiFi bug has gotten even worse now! You WiFi connection goes on and off every 1 second and no matter what you do, it doesn’t stay connected. You have to restart your phone to be able to use wifi again. And this is happening more often than usual. I only experienced this once on iOS 17.5 My battery has just gotten worse after just a day of installing iOS 18. I often use a software to check battery health and charge cycles. Installing iOS 18 just made the health drop 2 points. It is obvious iOS updates are made specifically to ruin older phones and improve newer models.
It’s not available here anywhere in Australia yet either. And I read an article saying none of the telcos here will be making it available for quite a while either, so sadly we’re probably one of the countries that will get it so late it will be almost old in some other countries lol.
@@CodedEnough It’s still a good phone. But the battery life struggles. She’s excited about the camera upgrade too. Biggest reason to upgrade is this is the last chance to get the $1000 trade-in credit for it.
You’ve missed the point with the Photos app. What they took away was the lazy infinite scrolling of the Days view, which was my default view. That view minimally curated your photo stream, presenting the photos with different sizes and allowing you to scroll infinitely. The closest to that you have now is the Recent Days, which is close to useless because you need to go in and out of individual days.
I get that, but people prefer that in some cases and if they want to customize it back, I wanted to simply show them how because it’s probably the number one complaint I’ve received about iOS 18
Yeah. I am so stressed with the lack of the “Recents” albums like before. Now the default is the Date view, which I never used before… and all my synced images are mixed with my Recent stuff now, argh.
Thank you for this video. It is quick and easy to listen to. You’ve scripted it well and have no long pauses or space fillers like the dreaded umm. Much appreciated. I’m going to listen again at a slower speed so I can absorb it better. The main help I am needing is how to access the clock and timer from the control panel, without needing to log in. I’m on iOS 18.1.1 with an SE 3gen.
I noted on my IP 16 pro on IOS 18 The new switch off button not always working. In phones app the contacts and favourite tabs suddenly disappears. Phone randomly restarts.
When you click pictures in the photo app they no longer open in full screen, instead they do smaller with the rest of the screen filled with unnecessary info, any way to set this as before? Also, there's a new setting "Enhanced Visual Search", is this useful/recommended to have it enabled?
The photos app for me sucks now. Also now when from the lock screen I activate the camera and take a photo, then click to view it, the photo shows a super tiny thumbnail and not the actual picture like before.
Dumb Question, but do you think the dark mode icons would affect battery life positively or negatively. I feel like having all the nitz and gritz will negatively impact battery
Hmmm, it might be a pro for battery life just as dark mode is a pro for battery life since black uses less power than white. But I don’t know for sure, maybe we’ll know a little later down the road.
I was just thinking too, they have need to revert back! Not sure if the masses will ok fine with this new photos app. Personally not feeling it at all!!
@@SphericalMoo you're right, i did that and its better, thanks, but I don't understand why apple is making things more complicated, it should be getting more simple to use, clean...
I'm glad that we can delete the extra control center screens. Having extra control center pages makes getting rid of the control center harder because swiping up on the page no longer makes it go away. Taking the control center back to one screen re-enables "swipe up to close" when the control center is open. Otherwise you have to swipe up from the very bottom as if you are trying to use the navigation grab bar.
Thank You Aaron! I like these types of videos because I always feel I’m missing out on something that my iPhone does that I don’t know about, like a setting etc. so these videos help me get to know the ins and outs of my phone a bit better.
There is a battery bug in ios 18. Charging limit was set to 90%, still iPhone 15 pro is getting charged to 100%. Using the original apple cable and charger.
I started out with the developer iOS 18. I went all the way through it and downloaded the gold master version which I think was the last developer beta. I’m not sure. Then Apple released iOS 18 to the public and everybody started to upgrade. Do I need to get out of thisgold master version and download the iOS 18 that was released to the public last week? I’m not sure where I stand please help.😊
Why is it that every time I try to activate Siri 2.0 the screen flash comes across as though it’s working and then I just get a drop-down notification, a Siri notification and it stops working it does nothing
Hey Aaron, not sure if this is makes sense but in ios18 you can turn on/off Stolen Device Protection in both Privacy & Security and FaceID & Password settings? Why both places? I also don’t understand if my FaceID opens the feature when I try to turn it off I personally get the 1hour delay when it knows who I am? I guess the level of difficulty is for the better…
On this IOS 18, anyone (especially if you have child) can delete the apps accidentally even though when you have still turned off deleting apps in privacy settings in itunes and app purchases settings. Is this a bug? Or only happening on my phone??
It’s a solid update for me! I’m just not a big of the photos app redesign or the new control center redesign! But, I really do love the Dark Mode Icons though!! 😁
@@untitledmixture1531 exactly they're more about getting your money than making good product, nowadays they're just average they don't have that special feel with that special edge over everybody else like 10 years ago
Since my upgrade to iOS 18 with iPhone 15 pro when on a phone call my hearing aid devices disconnect/reconnect constantly so it’s horrible.! Also Apple Mail is now a problem when attaching files doesn’t always work.
It’s been decent for most people, but you have to give it at least a few days or a week before it will finish process processing in the background. During that time, it will be worse than normal, but it improves
Updated to iOS 18 on my iPhone 15 pm, it runs smoothly so far and battery seems better than on 17.7. But there is a weather widget bug on the Lock Screen, the precipitation widget doesn’t show correct data. Is it just me?
I keep swiping through all the pages in control center by mistake when I try to swipe up and get out
You can just tap on a blank area to get out of control center 👍🏼
Just remove the 2nd and 3rd page
that’s literally the first thing he addresses in the video ?
or swipe from the top right
