The most prominent features of the system “iOS 15”
Notifications and focus

Notifications in the new system have been redesigned to become more clear, and include images of applications and contacts, and the system will be able to collect the least important notifications in a single summary and send them to the user at the time specified by him.

There is also a big change called “Focus”, where the user will be able to create profiles (eg for home, office or specific personalities) and select specific contacts and applications, which will be allowed to send notifications based on the files they created It is her.

This change allows the person not to be disturbed, for example, by work messages while he is at home, and vice versa, and whoever tries to communicate with him through messages will be told that the user has made the notifications silent, so that he can choose whether it is an emergency and the user must be notified immediately.
The app has been redesigned to be easier to use and more comfortable for the user with additional appearance options and usability tools, such as the address bar and voice search. The browser will also be able to prevent trackers from recognizing some user data via the IP address assigned to it, in addition to using the encrypted password.
Facetime app

Under the latest operating system update, Apple device users will be able to communicate with non-users via FaceTime video calls on Android and Windows PCs.
Camera

Users of the new system will also be able to identify written texts captured via the camera, along with the handwriting feature, and the camera can be used to learn more information about different objects.

Using Spotlight, you can search for text in a photo album, or search the web for images and provide better results for music and movies.
Other advantages

The Apple Health application has been optimized to enable the user to share data with family members, friends, and health care providers, to improve monitoring and reassurance, especially in the event of any emergency situation. The application also prohibits the user from possibly falling if he/she is off balance.

The Siri voice assistant is also able to process voice requests independently instead of relying on a simultaneous translation support, and thus becomes faster. The Mail app blocks tracking and shows how often apps accessed features like Camera, Gallery, Location, or Contacts.
