hey what's going on everyone this is our reviews back with another video and finally ios 15 has been released and of course it comes with a ton of new features and changes so if you're just getting started with ios 15 you didn't have any experience with this software whatsoever whether that be on beta stages the dev beta stages or the public beta stages then this is the video for you it will help you get started with ios 15. a lot of new tips and tricks that you need to know regarding your device running on ios 15. now another really cool trick is the like button on this video that will help out a lot and of course will help this video and this channel do much much better so make sure you smash that like button alright so we're starting with the new ios 15 feature and it is focus now focus will basically replace do not disturb but now it has a lot more modes in it you have sleep you have work you can add your custom ones and you have also do not disturb included on it now on the control center of your ios 15 device you will find here a button which allows to quickly invoke your focus so you just tap right there where that little circle is and it will start the focus mode but you can tap there of course to actually disable it as well but what you can do here is actually 3d touch and it will show you all the different modes that you have from here you can create a new one or you can go ahead and tap on the three dots on any of these and you can go ahead and enable them here or you can tap settings to go to the settings app and configure any of these focus modes basically this is the way to invoke focus directly from the control center without having to go through the settings app now when you go to the settings you will have now a new section here called focus which again will also replace do not disturb on the settings app now if you go to something like do not disturb or driving so let's go to driving here you will have here auto reply if you go right here you can choose to who you want to auto reply with a message when you get a call from them or maybe a message while you're driving or you have do not disturb turned on now here you have no one recent favorites or all of your contacts you of course choose whichever suits you better and then right here you will have the message that will go to them but of course you can tap here and you can edit this message and enter any message you like a cool new thing on ios 15 is that siri will also work offline of course it won't be able to do everything that it does while it's online but it also works offline for things of course that can be done while it's being offline so you can see right here we have disable the wi-fi and the seller network and we can do things like maybe launch apps or change different settings open settings and you can see it will open settings right away we can do other stuff like maybe let's change the setting here turn on bluetooth and you can see right there it does work even though the device is offline so very nice to have this feature of course you won't need to be connected to the internet for doing basic stuff that can be done on device there are some new features that have been added to the widgets on ios 15 and one of them can be found on stacks of widgets so if we go to edit the stack right here you can see we have a new feature here called widget suggestions now this is really good and it actually works quite good i've tried it it really works and it does what it's supposed to do basically it will suggest you different widgets based on like time of the day or your location basically it will know what you do and let's say wish like widgets use the most at certain time of the day or maybe a location and even though you might not have that widget on the stack it will show you that widget so right here i have currently only two widgets if i'm at a location where i use like a widget a lot it will show another one the third widget here and of course will suggest me that widget as you probably know with ios 14 of course you can go ahead and tap right here to go to the edit mode tab here to go to the pages that you have on your iphone you might know that on ios 15 you can actually now delete these and of course rearrange them as well so you can rearrange the pages any way you like but when you go here you might have just taken a look at this and of course you don't see that minus button which allows you to completely delete a page of icons well to do that you first will need to actually disable that page you can see none of these have that minus button if i just go ahead and disable it you can see it shows up right here i can then tap there and completely remove this page from my home screen and all of the apps will automatically be moved to the app library now there are some new controls when taking a screenshot as well so let's take a screenshot here and you will see the change right here so you will have two different modes so you have crop and scale or select text right there now what this does tap right there you can go ahead and select any text that's on that screenshot disable it from here now you won't see the markup tools and all that when you take a screenshot like you used to do on ios 14 because of course of the new feature right here to crop and scale or select text which is the new live text feature of ios 15. but to do that you will need to actually tap right there at the top and now it will switch to the tools or right there so you will have everything back just like you had on ios 14 of course if you want to get the live text feature back you just tap right there and there it goes you tap this button right here you can select any text that you have on that screenshot another really great feature of ios 15 is the ability to now make facetime calls directly from the imessage app your calls will even show right here you can see on the conversation so they will stay there it looks just like a message there but it just shows that you have contacted and called that person basically in the past so to do that you just tap that button right there the facetime button and you will actually get two buttons right here so you will have facetime audio or facetime video whichever you want to do you can go ahead and invoke it directly from here if you have seen the ios 15 presentation you know that apple took quite some time to basically explain the new facetime features and one of those was facetime links so basically you can send links to people to invite them to a facetime call and to do that you will need to open the facetime app and you tap right there to create the link that way you will be able to create a link and of course share it with anyone you want now right here it says facetime link but what you can do is also tap on add name and this allows you to enter any like custom name that you want for that link maybe like let's say meeting or just something like that and then you can go ahead and of course share that with anyone you want so once you tap on create facetime link this will show up you can copy that link or you can send it on an email or maybe an imessage or anywhere you want share the link and anyone that caps on that link will be able to join the facetime call now with ios 15 we also now have per app settings now these are under accessibility so you won't be able to change any setting you want just the accessibility settings and to do that you go under accessibility right here and at the bottom you will have per app settings now the way this works you add apps here now you want to be changing the settings for all the apps you have here you can change them individually so i can add like two different apps right here and i can have different settings for each of these so if i go to the app so right here you can see what we have basically the text size you have the reduced transparency increased contrast smart invert and that's really cool like there are apps that don't actually support night mode or dark mode whatever you want to call it you can go ahead and enable smart invert for those apps so whenever you open that app smart invert which is basically like kind of a dark mode will be enabled maybe like apps like facebook so you will get that kind of dark look even though those apps might not support the dark mode and this is also new on ios 15. you will see right here video and mic mode so whenever you're doing something like maybe a facetime call or any call on other apps it works on any app you will get these will pop up on your control center now what you can do here is go to the mic mode you will have different mic modes to choose from so you will have the standard one which is basically the default then you have here voice isolation so basically you will hear more of your voice and less of the ambient noise around you now then you have here wide spectrum basically allowing you to capture more sound and then you will have video effects as well if you go here what you will get it doesn't pop up right now but what you will get is basically the normal mode and a portrait mode which is basically software based for any of your video calls the photos app also got a lot of new features and here's one of them if you have pictures of people now right here is basically like an animoji but it still recognizes as a person so if i just swipe up on it you can see we have all the details and then right here shows you that little circle with this face so basically it recognizes it as a person now what you can do with your pictures is just swipe up and then tap right there on any person that you want and you can go ahead and add a name for that person and then of course the person will be tagged basically with that name on all the pictures where he or she is present and then right here you will have featureless so if you get like a person featured on the memories and all the stuff that you get on the photos app and you want them to feature less you can go ahead and do this and of course they will show up way less on your pictures of course one of the most updated apps of ios 15 is the weather app it is actually quite good so what you get here is totally redesigned weather app but we get some new features as well so let's see right here we're on london and you can see we have the temperature right there but if i tap right there on seymour it will show me here the map and we have london here we have basically the whole united kingdom right here we can zoom in in london and what we can do here is tap that button and we can change from from temperature let's say to air quality so you will see the air quality index right there for london this is really really great and a very nice feature to have now if we go back lower here we'll see everything like the wind you will see the uv index right there as well so really really great features with the weather app on ios 15 and of course simply by swiping like this you can switch between different cities on the weather app another thing that is really good that you can do is tap right there and search for any city you want but un unlike ios 14 you don't have to actually add a city to your list so let's just search for tokyo right here so if i search for tokyo you can see i can tap on it can take a look at anything i want here and then just tap cancel and i'm good to go i don't need to add it to the list of the cities in order to view the weather conditions on that city ios 15 will also bring safari extensions these might be very interesting in the future but for now you can actually download them without a few on the app stores but mostly are just like ad blockers so to get those what you need to do is go to your settings and go to safari and then here find extensions so let's just find where extensions are so here we have extensions and then tap on more extensions and this will take you to the app store where there's like a section of different like extensions that you can download for your safari app and you can see everything that is available right now so let's go to see all you can see most of them are actually ad blockers that you can get for so far right now probably in the future we will have other stuff let's wait and see that might get very interesting now what i like most about safari on ios 15 is that you can now make a quick search using your voice now whether you're on a website or you're at the first start page of safari you just go ahead and tap on the address bar and you will get that little mic right there you tap on it and you can go ahead and make a quick call quick search actually using voice on safari so that's really really useful and of course you just have the go button and you're good to go making searches on safari has never never been easier and that's due to the new feature of ios 15. now with ios 15 apple has added groups of tabs on safari and i've seen a lot of people actually get confused with these groups and how they work and how to basically organize them now this is how groups of tabs work so let's say you have 10 different tabs open on safari you have let's say three of them for school you have three of them maybe for entertainment and let's say you have four of them maybe for sports or something like that you can actually organize them into different groups so when i go to my tabs right here you can see i have two open and i have them under finance if i tap right there i can tap on apple inc and it will basically just remove those and go right here to this group where i have like the apple tabs even though i don't have anything open here so now if i go to the tabs you can see the only one right here is this one but if i switch to finance you can see i have the other ones right here now you can add a group simply by tapping here and you can go ahead and add a new tab or you can go ahead and add like a new group of tabs so just tap the plus button here to create like a new tab and then go ahead and create a new group so let's just go ahead and do that so tap right there and you can go ahead and enter let's say final services so just do that and we have now a tab here so tab done you can see we have the groups from which we can switch right here so it is as easy as that working with groups it's not that complicated of course you will get the hand of it and it's actually quite useful if you use the for a lot and you have all the time a lot of tabs open then this feature might be great for you on the new safari on ios 15 you will also find your downloads on another place so when you start downloading a file you will notice right here at the aa button there is like a little blue arrow that you can tap on it and it will show you right there the download so you tap download right there and you can see you will see your downloads here so basically that's not a separated button that is one button with the aaa but when you don't have anything downloaded it just downloading it just shows the aaa button once you tap on to download something it will extend and show you that arrow as well and then here on the list you will actually find your downloads now that's a new way that apple lets you manage your downloads and you will see them right there under the aaa list another great thing on ios 15 lookup has been improved a lot so if you select a word look up one just show you the dictionary so if you tap on look up right here you can see a lot more information like app store stuff you will see apple podcast itunes store and if you have selected a word like maybe a city or something like that it will show you all kinds of different stuff from siri knowledge so look up now is way way more useful and of course will give you way more details now something a lot of people thought was a bug on ios 15 is actually a feature well for now it is ios 15 now lets you have multiple icons of one app on your home screen so you can basically have like one app you can see i have app store there apple store there and here and i can have basically apple store on two different pages on my home screen so that's a new feature of ios 15. i don't know if someone will use it or if it's useful but it's there and you can actually do that since beta 1. with ios 15 we also get the new mail widget now this one is really good and it's very useful you can have your most recent emails right there or basically any mailbox that you choose now to do that you add of course the widget from the widgets panel and then you go ahead and 3d touch on the widget tap on edit widget and choose the mailbox that you want to display on the widget now you can have a couple or even more of those and have different mailboxes on different widgets now you will get this medium sized one and you will get the bigger one as well which of course will show you more emails and last but not least the ios video player so when you're playing something maybe on safari or anywhere that you get the default video player of ios i will have these three dots right here at the bottom right corner you tap on those three dots and you will get here the playback speed you can change the playback speed right here you have the subtitles and you will also have here the languages so you can go ahead and switch any of these settings directly from here so that's basically it for this video guys these are some very useful tips and tricks for everyone just starting off with ios 15. hopefully you guys enjoyed the video
