iOS 18.1 will soon bring Apple Intelligence features to the latest iPhones. iPhone 15 Pro and iPhone 16 users can’t wait to try these new features, but millions of users with older iPhones don’t have access to these AI features. Still, there’s more to iOS 18.1 than just AI.
Here are six exciting iOS 18.1 features coming to iPhone.
Record a call: iOS 18.1 will allow you to record calls. Call transcription and summarization is limited to Apple Intelligence-enabled devices, but anyone can record calls.
Sleep apnea detection: iOS 18.1 and watchOS 11.1 will include sleep apnea detection. This feature requires Apple Watch Series 9 or later. However, you don’t need the latest iPhone model. However, you must be in a region where this feature has already been approved by the government.
Control center adjustments: After revamping Control Center in iOS 18, Apple is adding even more new features in iOS 18.1. For example, all connection switches are now available standalone, so you can ditch Apple’s built-in options and implement your own solution. There are also new widgets for Apple’s own apps.
Enhanced RCS support: Although the final list remains unknown, Apple has once again expanded RCS support to more carriers around the world.
Drag and drop iPhone mirroring: With iOS 18.1 and macOS Sequoia 15.1, Apple adds the ability to drag and drop items from your Mac to your iPhone, and vice versa, while using iPhone Mirroring. This feature was delayed from the original software launch.
Share Apple Music songs to TikTok: With the latest iOS 18.1 beta, Apple is adding the ability to share Apple Music songs to TikTok.
