Apple Announces iOS 15 and iPadOS 15 With Major Additions to FaceTime, iMessage, Redesigned Notifications, More

Starting off with iOS 15, Apple is bringing major features to FaceTime. During the ongoing health crises, Apple is making it easier for users to stay connected. The company is bringing spatial audio and voice isolation support to the video chatting app for an immersive user experience. We are pretty aware of how spatial audio works but noise isolation will work through your mic. It will block the external noise and just focus on what is being said.

Other than this, Apple is also introducing Portrait Mode in iOS 15. It is pretty self-explanatory with the background being blurred and the subject remains in focus. In addition, Apple is making it easier for users to join video calls. The company is introducing a new "FaceTime Link" feature which will make it easier for users to join a call. The best part is that the feature is also available for Android and Windows users through the web.

Other than this, Apple is also introducing SharePlay - a new way to share media on FaceTime calls. This includes sharing music, movies and you can also share your screen. Basically, you will now have the option available to play Apple Music within a FaceTime call and all individuals of the video call can enjoy it. You can do the same when it comes to watching movies and videos. In addition, iOS 15 will also bolster FaceTime video by watching movies alongside the active calls. The SharePlay API will be available to other services like Disney Plus, HBO Max, TikTok, NBA, Hulu, and many more.

Other than FaceTime, iOS 15 will be equipped with a boatload of new features to the Messages app.
