Here are a few of the key new features coming to iOS 15, unveiled at WWDC 2021. (And here’s an overview of all of the new features in iOS 15<\/span>.)<\/p>\n

FaceTime upgrades: Spatial audio, support for Android and Windows<\/h3>\n

FaceTime will offer spatial audio<\/span> to make people’s voices appear to come from their position on the screen, making your video chats feel more natural and lifelike. FaceTime will also start to look more like Zoom<\/span>, allowing you to see all participants in a grid view, schedule calls and share links to calls that can be accessed via browser on Google Android and Microsoft Windows devices.<\/p>\n

<\/figure>\n

iMessage sharing features<\/h3>\n

iOS 15 adds some new iMessage sharing features<\/span> for photos, news articles and playlists. When a friend sends you multiple photos over iMessage, they’ll appear in a dynamic collage formation that allows you to swipe through them or tap through to view the whole bunch in your photos app. If you want to access the same photos later, you’ll find them stored in a new Shared with You folder, as well as mixed in with your own featured photos and memories. You’ll also find news articles and playlists shared through iMessage in new Shared with You tabs in your News and Apple Music apps.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Apple Maps gets 3D street data, AR walking directions<\/h3>\n

Apple Maps gets an upgrade<\/span>, with more elevation data, road colors and driving directions, rich labels, 3D landmarks and improved night mode. In terms of public transportation, you can also pin nearby public transit stops and station information to your iPhone and Apple Watch devices, and receive automatic updates and notifications as you ride and approach your stop. When traveling on foot, a new augmented reality feature lets you scan nearby buildings in the area with the iPhone’s camera to determine their precise position for more accurate walking directions, which are also presented in augmented reality.<\/p>\n

How do you download iOS 15?<\/h2>\n

If you’re part of Apple’s developer program, you can download the iOS 15 developer beta now to test your apps. The OS will be available to download as a public beta in July, so you could download it then if you like, but be warned: Betas are usually buggy<\/span>, and we don’t recommend that you download them on your primary device. But if you want to, here’s how to download the iOS 15 and iPadOS 15 betas<\/span>.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Once iOS 15 is generally available in the fall (likely in September), Apple will probably send a notification letting you know you can update. Or you’ll be able to do it manually, by going to the Settings app<\/strong> General<\/strong> Software Update<\/strong>.\u00a0<\/p>\n
