I don't own an iphone. Doesn't matter, I will still watch this video and genuinely consider whether or not I should update
What did you end up deciding?
i do not own and ipad air 4 256Gb ipad yet but i also will sttill watch this video and genuanly consider
Me too
don't own any apple products, yet I watch every mac address video
*I still do not know why*
I might consider updating
(I don't even have Apple devices lol)
The main thing, and i cant believe it took them this long, is being able to edit alarms by just tapping the alarm time rather than first going into “edit mode”
Finally! Didn’t realised that feature though. Super annoying needing to click edit and then the time to edit it
Oh did they change this? I had given up on using alarm clocks on my ipad completely. Good to know!
Wow, really? I just watched the whole video and I was like meh … but now I am seriously considering updating
I DIDNT KNEW THAT. Now the only thing missing is being able to set multiple timers in parallel
Honesty best knew feature for me.
The main feature that I like is Focus. I'm not doing a lot of the crazy stuff like having different home screens for each focus mode, but it's really nice to have do not disturb turn on automatically and show in my friends' messages apps when I'm in class or at work.
It’s making my work day more productive, honestly.
I don’t like focus modes, i’m too lazy to set them individually the way I want them to
@@WesleyDechavez sounds like a you problem
@@jimjamjon2285 that’s why I said i’m the lazy one, it may be a really cool feature but for me, it’s just too much work
Especially the sleep mode, if you happen to pick up your phone the screen doesn’t flash at you.
My absolute favorite thing about Linus Media Group now is that, if I had never seen a video by them, and you lined all the hosts up and told me one is super into Linux and one is super into Apple, I could tell you who were were just by looking at them.
Too late
Already did lol
Haven’t faced any problems and is running pretty smooth as of now
Safari has been a bit finicky and have had one or two bugs. Otherwise it’s been great.
Maps crashes all the damn time now.
Yeah
Same
@@nope6786 its better but im so use to the siri integration
"....if you trust them."
To do that you'll need to be online.
Dude this has to be the best produced video on the channel my goodness this is amazing
I’ve updated on my iPad Pro 9.7 and have been really liking the new keyboard shortcuts. Certainly makes multitasking with mouse and keyboard easier. Having slide over apps on the right of the app switcher is also a pretty good addition
I’ve heard a lot of reports that it’s super unstable but I haven’t had any issues on my 12
the update is super underwhelming though. the only thing I’ve really liked is the weather app
And new map app
@@bekindtoothers.1397 I mean yeah, but most of the new features aren’t even available where I live, so 🤷♂️
The weather app is amazing (thanks Dark Sky)
@@poble same
Haven’t had any problems but I love the focus modes and weather app. Safari if so much easier to use after you get used to it too.
Johnathan, you're doing a great job at hosting this show. Keep up the great work. LTT needed someone who is well in the apple eco system. Great personality and all.
The legend is back
I haven't noticed a ton, but I do like the weather app, it can tell you the dew point now!
i allready updated, live text is soooo helpfull in school!
Great Video!
So basically, Apple now has Google Lens? 😂
Your effort in making this video is superb and impressive! I really do hope your videos will appear in everyone's Home tab and you'll get a million subscribers because you're so underrated!
Finally there’s a guy who knows what a REAL REVIEW is!! THANK You! Very interesting and enjoyed!! One question though, HOW IT AFFECTS BATTERY?! 🤔 on Air 2 and 6s?
My favorite feature is Tab Groups, for reading webcomics, and syncing progress between devices automatically.
Nope, nope, nope, nope. Before I even watch, nope don’t do it.
Some apps have become buggy as hell since I updated and are crashing many times daily.
And on the other hand there’s really no new features that I’m actively using that would make me impatient for this if I’d stayed on 14.
So far so good.
Updated to a 13 (from an 11) so had iOS 15 out of the gate and so far no issues. Underwhelming updated BUT focus modes are awesome for cutting out clutter during the day/work.
You can move the minimized keyboard button to the left side of the screen by Click-hold and dragging the icon.
Why not upgrade? I have it since day one and it has been great. Love the new focus modes especially.
My favourite iPadOS 15 Feature is the three points button in the top middle where you can change the window mode. My school bought iPads for us and for someone who comes from Android where split screen is way harder to set up, I really love it.
Rocked the developer betas on my iPad since like beta 3, removed the beta profile when the final release happened.
It did fix a nagging bug I had with FaceTime calls, where if you answer a video call from the lock screen, or if you accidentally lock the tablet mid-call, your outgoing video would be broken the moment you unlock the tablet, and remain broken either until you find the right disable/enable camera dance, or restart the call.
I did wait until the release to update my primary phone, though.
Watching these videos at night does hurt my eyes.
Great video contentwise tho
I've updated my iPhone and haven't ran into bugs of any sorts the live text feature is really useful and the weather app really needed a re-design
Definitely worth updating for me. The focus mode is definitely what made it worth updating for, for me.
2:16 that would be amazing for accessibility, although I'm not sure how well the text to speech works with that.
You can choose the old voice control in the accessibility menu
Focus is so good. I set up a study one where the home screen page with "for fun" apps disappear, along with notification badges and that alone makes drifting away much harder. Not to mention the fact that I can turn it on in the iPad and notifications will also stop in my phone. The safari tab groups also work great on that regard. Wish they linked the two though?
When are you going to review the IPad mini ?
ngl the feature that hyped me the most was EXIF info in the photos app. hated to use shortcuts to have something so trivial.
I updated right away and the fact that I can see the details in the Photos app made it worth it already
My top 2 features are notification summaries and focuses. It takes time to set up your summaries, but the benefits are worth it. My phone is no longer chiming uncontrollably, and I can actually look at my lock screen and get info faster. I set up my home screens for focuses also and it's great when I don't want to get distracted by social apps at school, for instance. Yeah you can still find them through spotlight but I also use a feature called self control haha
iOS 15 was super laggy and buggy on my Se but the latest 15.1 update fixed pretty much all issues and I’d super great now. Love having magnify back on copying text and all the other new features
FaceTime’s voice isolation is the best feature for me. I am an online Spanish teacher, and teaching using FaceTime helps A LOT when my neighbors have loud music, but my students hear my voice cristal clear and without the music distracting them. This feature was worth the update for me.
Thanks for the informative video! Just wondering, if they applied the "quick note" from the bottom-right corner with the pen, what happened to the screenshot action that worked the same way before iOS 15?
I already have upgraded to iOS 15. Some apps quit more often, but there are many features that I love.
The 3Dmap works on Highway 91 in BC, I didn’t notice anywhere else. I also don’t use maps that often.
Will they start scanning photos from now?
Been running since the 1st dev beta. Pretty rock solid.
I updated on 9/20 at 4pm.Right after I got home from school
Updated to iOS15 on my 12 Pro Max and my '18 iPad Pro 12.9. No issues! I really like the Weather app now, and Focus sounds great for when I'll need it, which I currently don't. But I'm hardly a power user. I did notice that when I get Calendar notifications, I get prompted if I want to mute for an hour or all day, which is great! Except for the fact that today I selected mute for the day, and I got an audible Calendar notification maybe a couple of hours later. Go figure. The group Facetime stuff doesn't apply to me as it's not in my use case. Once I get my Mini I may have more thoughts on this, as I'll use that more than my Pro (the Pro is too big for easy casual use).
Excellent video as always!
Pretty great changes for iPad Pro power using.
The thing I miss most? Being able to tell a notification to be delivered quietly, or prominently, from the notification screen. Now I have to go into the notification settings for the individual app to set that up.
I feel it's not polished as much as previous versions, even though in the past I used to run a couple of generations old iPhones instead of the latest one. I don't really care about the visual bugs. They'll fix them eventually, but surprisingly the worst experience for me was trying to copy images from websites by long-tapping and selecting a text on the photo instead. Gotta get used to this one I guess
Where do I get that multi direction shirt from 🤔it looks cool
i updated & it went into recovery mood & it was a pain in the butt to restore
Live Text and Focus modes are huge quality of life features for me and use them daily
I updated to iOS 15 for my iPhone and iPad. I’m surprised to say that I like the new safari layout on iPhone. I was expecting to not like it, but having the search at the bottom and being able to swipe through tabs easily is really useful. I’m also getting some use out of the new focus mode, and I love that it syncs between my phone and ipad (Not sure if that’s new or not though). As for iPad, I’m having a mostly positive experience. I really like the on screen widgets and being able to remove apps from my home screen, but the keyboard changes you mentioned have been a real problem for me. I wish I could have iOS 15, but with the old keyboard interface. It now blocks my screen, and when minimized is still inconvenient when I want to add emojis. It also doesn’t seem to want to work well with Grammarly. Overall I’m happy I updated now, but I’m hoping for these things to be fixed soon :/
It would be so funny if the episode just said “no” then went to a silent outro and the whole episode was only like ten seconds long
The loss of dark sky on Android still irks me to this day
Live text is a game changer for students!
I'd love to replace the quicknotes action with the ability to open like.. todoist or some other widget. That would make productivity 100000x better
Jonathan, you're my favorite IOS feature
One of the biggest things I love with iPadOS15 is the easier multiple application setup, that can make two applications be split screen. I found this to be REALLY useful since it is almost like having two iphone screens side by side, so i can take my reminder shopping list side by side of my grocery application when scheduling for pickup. Which also a big update is ipad non-native applications that show in “iPhone” mode can show like a phone when you have the ipad in landscape.
That floating thing drove me crazy when using messenger. But I found a fix somewhere in accessibility to remove it
3:39 - this is gold
My main is focus mode especially when I get to work or school it just automatically turns on. And the redesigned buttons in settings are cool
I don't know if it was there before and I never noticed it but being able to adda location after the fact to photos is something I love as am always getting sent things on WhatsApp and like categorising them properly.
I was deep on a road trip and was excited about Siri. I was surprised I could set alarms without Internet, but not set reminders. I use reminders a lot for my medication and was really disappointed I couldn’t use my go-to reminder method offline
Been on the beta and remain on the 15 beta. Haven't really had any issues so far. Nothing reoccurring at least.
Did all the public betas and currently still am. Minor issues for me.
1:42 Some parts of Las Vegas have also gotten 3D maps
I think if you don't see the point of the new focus mode (i love it, they could add a bit more customization), it is better to hold till the new MacOS drops and you want to use new features e.g. Universal Control
Well I updated to it on my iPAD Mini 5, no regrets.
best lmg channel
Upgraded on my 6S, I've found the upgrades to Focus to be mostly useful.
It's crazy the 6s is still getting updates!
@@blur4036 Yeah, my 6s served me very well with updates until I upgraded just recently to a Pixel 5a.
I updated and I’ve been having a ton of trouble with FaceTime, calls dropping, and even calls not being received at all
That "pretty handy" use of the text recognition feature to scan a business card reminds me of the Mitchell and Webb Bluetooth sending a phone number skit. 😂
Except for fast battery drain issues and the stop alarm button sometimes not on the screen when I wake up in the morning, my iPhone XS Max has been fine. I had to uninstall all my apps to keep the battery running fine. At least 15.0.1 has fixed this and my apps are back on.
My iPad has had issues with the widgets being solid blocks of colour.
I like iOS 15 other than a weird bug where sometimes clicking on things (especially UA-cam videos) does nothing. But the swiping between tabs thing in safari has legit changed how I use the app
Except for the occasional stutter when closing apps, 15 has been fine. The little improvements are nice.
FYI My 13 Pro shipped with 15.0 already pre-installed. Works fine, no issues so far.
I always update instantly and run the iOS betas and have never run into any (major) issues
Does spacial audio work with AirPods Max? If on FaceTime
Updated on Day 1 and my main work tool stopped working immediately (i.e. external microphone connected via USB-C on my iPad Pro, which I used to teach online via a browser based teaching app). Safari (and every browser that has to use its core on the iPad) just stopped recognising my device unless I perform some long-winded sacred rite of a workaround first. Thank god I eventually worked that workaround out.
Only bug I found annoying since updating is the UA-cam app. Videos dont play when i tap it. I have to reload the list before I can play the video. Else, it good.
I upgraded, except safari & instagram freeze there are no big issue. Also upgraded to win 11 that also works fine.
Upgraded to ios 15 since it was officially launched. Found several bugs like suddenly my phone wont detect my sim card number, but still able to make a phone call using the sim number and receive call directed to my sim card. No problem on my e Sim number.
Second bug is sometimes a contact that had several number/email in it, cant be identified. But after simply turning my phone on and off, the problems goes away
I noticed that my phone heat up faster during charging too after upgrading.
Other than that, having a lovely experience especially the mic mode features.
I am waiting for iOS 15.1. But I really want to update so that I can use the new developer APIs like async/await and the new UIButton configurations
OS 15 is proving just as good on the iPhone 11 as OS 14 was. Power draw, fluency of navigation, it's all about the same. I like the new notification setup and focus mode, and exploring some of the redesigned maps have been fun. Overall, the feature I'm most excited for is sharplay, as I have many friends hooked into the iMessage/Facetime ecosystem. Live text seems to function well, and even picks up my handwriting with surprising accuracy. I can't attest to other features like offline Siri and whatnot, but I don't assume it's anything special. The Safari redesign took some getting used to (both on Big Sur and on OS15), but I'm a pro with the new layout now, and dare I say: I actually find it quite intuitive, not to mention those handy dandy tab groups which have already helped me stay organized for some class projects.
The production value on Mac Address is so great! I updated to iOS 15 on my 12 Pro as soon as I could. There hasn’t been any noticeable downsides for me but some slight battery drain that was resolved in 15.01. Otherwise I’m really liking the update.
The new nofitication look nice and I’ll be going to iOS 15 only for that
Safari extensions is one main reason I upgraded to iOS 15 on day 1. I have been enjoying other features though.
Two problems i’ve been having lately on my iphone 8 are that youtube has a strange .5s lag when dragging the video player down, and that the books app sometimes forgets which page i was, taking me back a whole chapter back, other than that it’s been great
I am on beta 15.1 I love the new find my airpods pro I lose my case all the time and can now find them
What about those of us with older iPhones (6S/7/8/etc.)? Should we update?
I already updated. On my iPad, all my apps/icons got slightly rearranged, which was irritating and took a while to put back. The widgets got in the way, so I put them on the widget screen ("Today View"). I don't really like the appearance of Safari. However, Maps, Messages, and Find My look nicer. Otherwise, I try to return my iDevices back to their original appearances before upgrades and then try out new features gradually, so it seems much the same to me.
I did the same with my iPhone, and I can't remember what changed. Again, Maps, Messages, and Find My seem nicer. Otherwise, the transition seems to have been pretty seamless.
According to what I read I can't see any bad issue with iOS 15 upgrade, just few small incorrect infos like GB remaining space . Focus feature is very useful
already update for 12 mini, and it's run pretty well. the bug that I found only on facebook when opening photos, it will be crash. the rest is ok
Tbh I dont like the floating 3-dots on top of iPadOS, especially since I properly learned how to use gestures and this makes things look pretty jarring considering the whole slide over thing which became a lot simpler after app library was added
updating my iPhone 4 slowed it down, updating my iPhone 5S slowed it down, updating my iPad 3 slowed it down, updating my MacBook pro to Mavericks literally bricked it (well, after a while of being slow) so I didn't upgrade my iPhone 6S, for 3 years on iOS 9 it worked like a charm, except for the lack of new emojis (but I did have the revolver!)
I wonder if I should keep my new iPad mini 6 on the latest iOS 15 or upgrade to 16 next year...
Iam doing fine with 7 and hardly noticed any change
iPhone 7 user here. Almost nothing has changed. UI was tweaked in a little bit but not much.
Also, swiping right on notification no longer opens it. It really bothers my muscle memory.
“To do this you’ll need to be online” is a slap in the face. It’s like “yeah, I understand what you want, but I’m not gonna do it”
My 6s is on iOS 15 and I’m grateful Apple still care about older models
Might upgrade to the new ones heh
What is the song playing during the Live Text section? I was vibing so hard
Jonathan, your videos are amazing and we do not deserve you. But we’re gonna take you anyway!
What a great video, I’ve watched all of Apple’s videos on the features of iOS 15, yet they fail to explain them or mention them like you do here.
Focus is worth it for me.
