Apple has announced a major software update for the iPhone and iPad – iOS 15.1 and iPadOS 15.1. They bring a long list of innovations, improvements and fixes.
Firstly, in iOS 15.1 and iPadOS 15.1, the SharePlay function, announced back in the summer, appeared. Apple describes it as “a completely new way to share content from Apple TV, Music and other supported apps from the App Store with everyone on a FaceTime call.”
In fact, it is a co-viewing or listening function where anyone on a call can pause, start, and rewind content using shared controls, and the volume of a movie or song is automatically reduced when the other party starts talking. With Apple TV, you can watch shared video on the big screen while continuing to FaceTime on iPad.
Plus, with Screen Sharing, everyone on a FaceTime call can view photos, explore the web, and help each other.
A few more general innovations for iOS 15.1 and iPadOS 15.1 – in the application “Translation” and during translation in the entire system, Mandarin Chinese (Taiwan) is now supported, new automation switches have been added to the “Home” application based on the current readings of humidity, air quality and level light from HomeKit-enabled sensors, and Siri Shortcuts use new predefined actions to overlay text on images and GIFs.
The rest of the new features are for iOS 15.1. So, the iPhone 13 Pro and iPhone 13 Pro Max support for recording ProRes video, as well as automatic switching between cameras when taking macro photos or videos. The Wallet app now supports COVID-19 vaccination cards.
In addition, various bugs were fixed in iOS 15.1 and iPadOS 15.1, including crashes that could cause the Wi-Fi network to not be detected, and the Photos app could erroneously report full memory when importing photos and videos.
