30 Hidden NEW Features in iOS 18

[@ThioJoe]

If anyone wants my collection of unhinged / dumb emojis here they are on Google Drive: drive.google.com/drive/folders/1LSrgk0qzFYUJypUAOkvP_GTr94PlKctK?usp=sharing Several of them I made myself in photoshop, others I found. You can add them as a sticker in iOS by viewing them in Photos and long pressing on them, it should automatically extract it out, then you can hit "Add Sticker".

I was gonna look it up on google after this video. Thanks for the quick link❤

[@ChristinaMagma]

That emoji is downright terrifying 😂😂😂

[@HavingFunTimes]

Finally a video about iOS 18 features that isn't about Apple Intelligence

[@TheNuttGuy]

Really ? I’ve seen more videos like that than apple intelligence

[@nightmareci]

I get what you mean by your phrasing, that there's no direct mention of Apple Intelligence here, but I'm pretty darned sure that math notes feature is powered by their "AI" stuff behind-the-scenes. But the user-facing experience hides all that crap from you, just type, it's intended to just work as expected (but we'll have to see how that pans out once real people start using it).

[@lucidattf]

@@TheNuttGuysame, especially given apple intelligence doesn’t exist on ios 18

[@faenethlorhalien]

You forgot the inverted commas around Intelligence.

[@DonOleq096]

@@HavingFunTimes yeah, because there is no apple intelligence in iOS18

[@nicopn]

Another not talked about feature: for audio nerds like me, Voice Memoes now supports recording in stereo. Go to settings, apps, voice memos, then toggle stereo recording on

[@beegyoshi6525]

That math notes feature is pretty cool actually

[@SirusStarTV]

It's also available in other apple apps, like notes.

[@jasonsubratie7261]

Apple finally doing something right taking jailbreak features and refining them

I’m a total fan of albums and photo folders. Apps just made my library look like a mess. The fact that they go straight to the created folder is awesome 😍

[@jeremyharriet]

I’ve been really happy with the update. Just switched to the 16 a week ago, but I’m struggling a bit because I’m not sure what screen protector to put on it

[@MichaelMHl5]

Vionentus privacy screen protectors are next level

[@kev_brooks76]

You’re on my team.. I literally can’t use anything other than a privacy screen.

[@MichaelMHl5]

The one I have is awesome because it doesn’t kill your eyes like some others

[@Elizas1965]

+1 for Vionentus, the screen protector works great

[@espressoguy250]

Joe! You gotta check out under accessibility settings! There is eye tracking which can help select things hands free. Takes a bit of time to set up but I can see how it'd be useful for some people.

[@watsoncrick4561]

It's the subtle updates that gives life to iPhone and makes it sooo much better! We love hidden updates!

[@rager1969]

The calculator changes are cool.

[@TerenceMirabelli]

Superb video, packed with really handy suggestions. So much more useful than control panel customization, etc

[@zinadinzidan3813]

This is a more useful video than other KZbin creator videos.

Hi Joe, as an Android user for more than a decade (I think I've only touched an iPhone once), what do you think will be the first thing that will shock, amaze, or surprise me when I start using an iPhone/iOS?

[@ThioJoe]

Hm I’d have to think about it cuz i’ve used it so long 🤔

[@Industry-insider]

The best thing about Apple is that their features actually work reliably, they aren’t gimmicky like a lot of android features

You win the KZbin award for “clearly communicating the largest amount of useful information in the shortest amount of time”. It’s a very impressive skill that is rare these days.

[@siddharthsonawala491]

One of the best videos on iOS 18 ! Excellent! Very useful, just appropriate speed, easy to understand!

[@derekmcc]

A comprehensive insight to some not so talked about features in iOS 18. Thank you.

[@Hartbreak1]

One small feature they added was to add a background sounds toggle in the control center. Previously it was buried in the settings no not a lot of people knew or used that feature. What the background sounds feature does is basically being a simple white noise generator. It has some few different sounds like rain, waves, white noise etc. the sounds also can play over other content so it’s good for relaxing or sleeping. Before the feature was mostly unusable since it’s buried deep in the settings but now that you can put a simple toggle button it’s nice to use.

[@MrFunnyboy88]

@@Hartbreak1 definitely glad it is more accessible. Such an underrated feature to begin with honestly

[@yajusgakhar6969]

I had made a shortcut for it myself. Nice of it to be accessible now

[@SandyWollf]

Hi ThioJoe, There is supposed to be a way to record incoming and outgoing phone calls as well. I would love to see the step by step ways to get this to work! Thanks

[@lorrainealbiston61]

13:41 Now you can photos into folders can you delete from library and they will still be folder?

[@LisaLongo-ku9zy]

I have gotten car sick my whole life and the vehicle motion cues really help

[@AOfuhSHO]

The T9 feature was by far my most useful thing that I missed when switching from android to apple. I’m so excited that it’s an apple feature now!

[@davidsilverman6508]

Hi, here in the UK my iphone13 pro seems to have a few functions not there. e.g. I dont have the T9 function and in the photos utilities my list of avaiable utilities only has 10 options where your list has a lot more. But the most frustrating is the sticker change. How do you go back to send a memoji/sticker with text so it is sent like it used to be with the text option underneath. Now if I choose a sticker/memoji (S/M), my screen shows it as before bur with a cursor next to the S/M which is the hegiht of the S/M. When I add text as before it appears as an Emoji on my screen. However the recipent still gets the Memoji size icon and the text but there is a download button next to the memoji. so now I have to pick the S/M and send it on its own and then send a separate text message. Is there a way of turning this function off as I have not found one.

[@sharonmacintyrebarrett8572]

What I found different with IOS 18 is they made it simple for old people to use. I am using my iPhone now for more things then I ever did before. I make notes on it, use the calendar, the calculator, so no more just making phone calls and picture taking. I love it. When up dates came out I use to think Oh God another two weeks of learning and then doing nothing but make calls take pictures. This time after seeing a video on OIS 18 I had to download it right away. I am so happy I did. I am one very happy 75 year old woman who loves her phone.

[@lamonthoward3379]

Thank you …this was so helpful for me

[@NoelleTGS2]

As a long time Android user, I'm starting to run out of arguments for why it's better than iOS 😭😭 might need to switch over sometime soon...

[@block_place1232]

root, open source, jailbreaks easier, custom phone launchers, apks i could go on for hours

[@NoelleTGS2]

@@block_place1232 a lot of those things absolutely do not matter to the end user though, I'm a big supporter of FOSS but it doesn't make a difference to me whether the phone OS I use is open source or not (especially considering all the big manufacturers are not using stock android anyway). I don't jailbreak and I don't use custom launchers, and sideloading is even starting to become much easier (albeit the EU is having to force them into it lol). I'll probably still stick with my android for a while but if iOS keeps advancing at this rate, it might be worth looking into

[@SchnitzelDaemon]

This is exactly the video I needed today! One thing I've noticed is that legacy widgets are no longer supported. I used the Google home and kasa widgets multiple times a day to control devices in my home.

[@SchnitzelDaemon]

I've just figured out I can make shortcuts for kasa scenes and put them in the control centre, so that will do for now

[@lormor460]

I’m more excited about the changes now since watching your videos! This has got to be one of the best videos I’ve seen for new features with iOS 18. Explained well, and to the point. New sub. Thank you!

[@CraigCrossman-i1h]

I can't do the Color change that you described! I don't see the gradient option that lets me do the Color Change when I go to the Screen Clock Change... Can you help me? THANKS! Craig

[@sonebone7]

Not sure if you got the answer, on your lock screen hold image and at the bottom you will see customize, touch that, next to it , hit the home screen , then at the bottom you will see options at the bottom ' Gradient 'and proceed from there
