1
00:00:05,799 --> 00:00:13,679
just kidding it's me ion I need help with okay that's not quite how the call

2
00:00:10,840 --> 00:00:17,880
screening feature in iOS 17 works but if Apple's demo can be believed the real

3
00:00:15,400 --> 00:00:22,560
thing is going to be even better I mean that alone is enough to get me to

4
00:00:20,080 --> 00:00:27,720
consider an iPhone and there's way more I'm talking contact posters checkin

5
00:00:24,560 --> 00:00:29,640
FaceTime video mail and air tag sharing

6
00:00:27,720 --> 00:00:33,160
I mean that last one was barely even a foot note in Apple's keynote but has

7
00:00:31,240 --> 00:00:38,840
been generating a lot of Buzz here at the office I mean it's a fair question

8
00:00:35,520 --> 00:00:41,120
what if I need to find my wife's keys

9
00:00:38,840 --> 00:00:45,559
I'm really impressed I mean sure a lot of it's not new whether we've seen it

10
00:00:43,399 --> 00:00:50,079
before in Gmail or Whatsapp or even just plain old Android but the whole package

11
00:00:48,199 --> 00:00:54,680
looks like a big quality of life Improvement for iPhone users and it puts

12
00:00:52,320 --> 00:01:00,000
everything you might want all in one place everything except this segue to

13
00:00:57,320 --> 00:01:04,080
our sponsor switch pod this isn't your run-of-the-mill handheld tripod it's

14
00:01:02,359 --> 00:01:07,280
lightweight Compact and nearly indestructible you can experience the

15
00:01:05,880 --> 00:01:12,080
freedom of quickly switching between handheld and tripod mode in seconds

16
00:01:09,640 --> 00:01:16,600
check out switch POD at the link below with contact posters when you call

17
00:01:14,200 --> 00:01:20,640
someone you get to decide what their iPhone displays whether you want a more

18
00:01:19,159 --> 00:01:24,360
professional looking black and white head shot or a silly pick of yourself

19
00:01:22,680 --> 00:01:30,159
photoshopped onto a gorilla the possibilities are endless but don't

20
00:01:27,479 --> 00:01:35,320
worry there's also a new content filter system that should block any unsavory

21
00:01:33,040 --> 00:01:38,720
content whether it's in a contact poster or an incoming pick or video I'm not

22
00:01:37,520 --> 00:01:44,200
sure if they came up with this out of the blue or if it was that guy airdropping a dickpick on a crowded

23
00:01:42,439 --> 00:01:48,360
plane last year that lit a fire somewhere at Apple HQ the Mac Address

24
00:01:46,520 --> 00:01:52,680
team did some quick testing by the way and the filter does appear to work

25
00:01:50,920 --> 00:01:56,680
though I wouldn't be surprised if jerks find creative ways around it I mean have

26
00:01:54,159 --> 00:02:00,520
you seen a Call of Duty Lobby lately it's better than it used to be but uh

27
00:01:58,920 --> 00:02:04,640
life finds a way another call Related update is called

28
00:02:02,600 --> 00:02:11,080
live voicemail which is what I was talking about in the intro and this is

29
00:02:07,039 --> 00:02:14,000
so cool on the recipient side it lets

30
00:02:11,080 --> 00:02:18,519
you view a realtime transcription of any voicemail that is being left so you can

31
00:02:16,360 --> 00:02:22,599
either leave your ex pathetically pleading to have you back to a machine

32
00:02:20,680 --> 00:02:27,800
or you can decide you want to pick up the call and tell them no in real time

33
00:02:25,560 --> 00:02:33,720
you can also turn on silence unknown callers and send new people straight to

34
00:02:30,280 --> 00:02:36,640
live voicemail I love this I mean for

35
00:02:33,720 --> 00:02:41,200
anyone born after 1999 this may surprise you but this used to be the norm people

36
00:02:39,080 --> 00:02:45,040
would screen their calls all the time by just listening to it being recorded on

37
00:02:43,000 --> 00:02:48,519
their answering machine then picking it up if it was someone they actually

38
00:02:46,360 --> 00:02:52,840
wanted to talk to and apple brought it back and one thing live voicemail does

39
00:02:51,200 --> 00:02:57,200
better than an answering machine is that it can autore reject any calls that your

40
00:02:55,000 --> 00:03:01,680
carrier identifies as spam that's a feature Android already has but hey it's

41
00:02:59,440 --> 00:03:05,319
nice to see Apple keeping up good job little buddy now something else they've

42
00:03:03,200 --> 00:03:09,200
caught up on at least compared to third party chat apps like WhatsApp and

43
00:03:06,959 --> 00:03:14,799
Discord is interacting with text messages they've implemented swipe to

44
00:03:11,680 --> 00:03:16,680
reply so if someone sends you 15 texts

45
00:03:14,799 --> 00:03:20,480
in a row and you really only want to reply to one of them from the middle you

46
00:03:18,560 --> 00:03:25,560
can now just swipe right on it instead of holding to reply that way they know

47
00:03:23,200 --> 00:03:30,000
haha cool story refers to the bit about last Friday night and not the recent

48
00:03:27,640 --> 00:03:34,239
death in their family catchup is also so new if you open your phone to a giant

49
00:03:32,319 --> 00:03:38,159
wall of messages you can just tap the arrow and it'll take you to the top of

50
00:03:35,799 --> 00:03:41,720
the Unseen messages I mean I don't think that one's a huge deal personally but

51
00:03:40,120 --> 00:03:45,959
I've also never been in a hyper toxic relationship so your mileage may vary

52
00:03:44,000 --> 00:03:50,200
speaking of toxic relationships you can now use check in to let someone know

53
00:03:48,360 --> 00:03:54,000
that you've reached your destination okay joking aside this actually would

54
00:03:51,599 --> 00:03:58,439
have been a great feature for me just yesterday my badminton coach was

55
00:03:56,079 --> 00:04:01,439
freaking out because his wife said I'm going out then he missed a call from her

56
00:04:00,400 --> 00:04:05,840
around the time that she should have arrived at the mall he tried to call her

57
00:04:03,400 --> 00:04:10,640
back a few minutes later many times but even though she's usually really good

58
00:04:07,040 --> 00:04:13,040
about picking up nothing which doesn't

59
00:04:10,640 --> 00:04:17,680
seem like a big deal but let me put it this way as a husband and a dad I know

60
00:04:15,959 --> 00:04:21,199
what would be going through his head did she call cuz she's at the Walmart and

61
00:04:19,359 --> 00:04:24,040
wanted to know if I need anything or did she call because she's bleeding out on

62
00:04:22,680 --> 00:04:29,400
the side of the road and she just wanted to hear my voice one last time before she dies with check-in he'd have known

63
00:04:27,680 --> 00:04:33,720
that everything was fine and she was at the mall and we could have started our

64
00:04:31,039 --> 00:04:37,600
session on time I also see this being amazing for anyone who's going somewhere

65
00:04:35,680 --> 00:04:43,199
new or meeting up with someone for the first time until you check in it tracks

66
00:04:41,280 --> 00:04:48,039
your progress and will ping you for responses which will notify expecting

67
00:04:45,400 --> 00:04:52,000
parties if you don't respond with helpful information like your location

68
00:04:50,080 --> 00:04:56,080
your battery level and whether or not you have cell service all of this

69
00:04:54,120 --> 00:04:59,280
information is end to-end encrypted by the way just in case you were worried

70
00:04:57,400 --> 00:05:04,639
that Apple suddenly got lacks about security and if a friend who already checked in

71
00:05:02,440 --> 00:05:08,080
heads somewhere else they can just send the new location to you with a simple

72
00:05:06,240 --> 00:05:11,919
tap from the plus button it'll go straight to your conversation no more

73
00:05:10,039 --> 00:05:15,280
exiting to another window this is going to be a great way for people to help

74
00:05:13,520 --> 00:05:20,560
their friends stay safe and another location related news you can finally

75
00:05:17,600 --> 00:05:24,400
share air tags got a dog that you like to keep track of but your partner's out

76
00:05:22,360 --> 00:05:28,800
walking her well now you can just share that air tag and you can both keep track

77
00:05:26,720 --> 00:05:32,560
together you can share with up to five people just be careful who you give

78
00:05:30,880 --> 00:05:36,840
access to since they will be able to play sounds to pinpoint the air tag

79
00:05:34,520 --> 00:05:41,639
whenever they're nearby another big Improvement is the revamped search

80
00:05:38,680 --> 00:05:45,720
function now with filters in Apple's own words you can find the message you're

81
00:05:43,560 --> 00:05:52,080
looking for Faster by combining search filters to quickly narrow your search

82
00:05:48,600 --> 00:05:54,639
honestly wow thank you this is something

83
00:05:52,080 --> 00:05:58,919
that Android can't do yet and if it works as advertised it's going to be a

84
00:05:56,800 --> 00:06:03,919
game changer I mean I can't stress enough just how frustrating a bad search

85
00:06:01,479 --> 00:06:09,759
function is yes Windows and Microsoft teams I'm not just looking at you I'm

86
00:06:06,479 --> 00:06:11,240
staring into your soul do better please

87
00:06:09,759 --> 00:06:15,080
and there are some more message specific updates like finding all of your most

88
00:06:13,280 --> 00:06:18,960
used iMessage apps by tapping the new plus button along with the ability to

89
00:06:16,800 --> 00:06:23,840
create stickers from objects and photos react to specific messages with those

90
00:06:20,840 --> 00:06:26,440
stickers or my personal favorite audio

91
00:06:23,840 --> 00:06:31,000
message transcription don't you flip and hate it when someone sends you a voice

92
00:06:28,360 --> 00:06:34,720
note or an audio message and it's not a convenient time or place to check it

93
00:06:32,520 --> 00:06:38,080
right now because you know you have a life maybe you're deaf and someone

94
00:06:36,680 --> 00:06:43,120
you've been communicating with online doesn't know that and they send you an audio clip well with this feature you

95
00:06:41,280 --> 00:06:48,280
can say goodbye to that annoying back and forth and say hello to just reading

96
00:06:45,880 --> 00:06:55,560
what they said for real though this is a fantastic upgrade and feels just as much

97
00:06:51,680 --> 00:06:57,039
convenient as it does inclusive love it

98
00:06:55,560 --> 00:07:02,280
and if you like communicating through FaceTime that's also gotten a few albeit

99
00:07:00,000 --> 00:07:06,759
more minor updates now when someone misses your call you can just record a

100
00:07:04,280 --> 00:07:11,840
video or an audio message and send that off which continues Apple's iOS 17 trend

101
00:07:09,360 --> 00:07:15,560
of improving on voicemail and FaceTime is also coming to more devices those

102
00:07:13,720 --> 00:07:20,720
messages we just mentioned those can be checked on your Apple watch and you can

103
00:07:18,039 --> 00:07:24,639
now connect your iPhone to your Apple TV as long as it's second generator

104
00:07:22,479 --> 00:07:28,080
actually there are a lot of asterisks about model specific features in this

105
00:07:26,400 --> 00:07:32,560
rundown but assuming you've got the right Goods you can finally use your

106
00:07:29,919 --> 00:07:35,520
iPhone as your camera and your TV to display who you're talking to just make

107
00:07:34,400 --> 00:07:41,080
sure you're wearing a button-up shirt from LTT Store.com so you look sharp during that call tell you every year we

108
00:07:39,440 --> 00:07:45,879
get closer and closer to living and back to the future I mean first Trump becomes

109
00:07:43,160 --> 00:07:49,400
president now your Apple TV can sort of call someone but what about when you're

110
00:07:47,840 --> 00:07:52,759
not using your phone and you want to completely ignore it well Tim Apple

111
00:07:51,199 --> 00:07:57,720
decided that that's simply not an option so Apple has added new standby features

112
00:07:55,720 --> 00:08:01,199
soon you'll be able to display key info while charging your phone like a claw

113
00:07:59,520 --> 00:08:05,400
talk in calendar you can display Precious Memories or even just the music

114
00:08:02,840 --> 00:08:08,800
you're listening to and you can use live activities to show more pertinent

115
00:08:07,000 --> 00:08:12,400
information like how far along your delivery order is or who's winning that

116
00:08:10,840 --> 00:08:18,599
game that you bet on but don't care to watch because you're not actually a sports fan you're just a gambling addict

117
00:08:16,440 --> 00:08:23,120
Siri hopefully that didn't trigger your phones um can also bring up information

118
00:08:21,000 --> 00:08:28,199
for you in standby now which is pretty neat and it's even easier now that

119
00:08:25,319 --> 00:08:33,039
they've removed the hey from hey if feel like being more direct you

120
00:08:31,280 --> 00:08:37,000
can also interact with widgets right from the lock screen or from standby

121
00:08:35,120 --> 00:08:40,279
which is super handy if you've got a smart home but your hands are too full

122
00:08:38,640 --> 00:08:44,080
to pick up and unlock your phone actually the first phone I had that I

123
00:08:42,080 --> 00:08:48,320
could interact with things from the lock screen was a uh Droid something the one

124
00:08:46,480 --> 00:08:52,480
with that ballistic nylon back it was freaking amazing oh airdrop is also

125
00:08:51,040 --> 00:09:00,079
getting worked on in a number of ways with one of the biggest feature updates being the ability to just walk away and

126
00:08:57,120 --> 00:09:04,200
let your transfer finish that's right if the network drops or you can't wait

127
00:09:02,079 --> 00:09:08,360
around you can just allow the transfer to complete over the internet as long as

128
00:09:06,560 --> 00:09:13,880
both you and the recipient are signed into iCloud that's not out until later

129
00:09:10,839 --> 00:09:15,680
this year but it sounds great they've

130
00:09:13,880 --> 00:09:19,760
also made sharing your name number and other files easier letting you airdrop

131
00:09:17,680 --> 00:09:24,160
just about whatever you want simply by holding your iPhone near someone else's

132
00:09:22,240 --> 00:09:28,839
and a big feature that's sure to kill basically every third party journaling

133
00:09:25,839 --> 00:09:32,399
app is Apple's new Journal it's also

134
00:09:28,839 --> 00:09:34,040
coming later but looks pretty robust and

135
00:09:32,399 --> 00:09:39,000
should allow you to save your memories however you want to almost like a

136
00:09:35,680 --> 00:09:40,160
digital scrapbook this isn't really new

137
00:09:39,000 --> 00:09:45,040
I mean people have obviously been journaling in their respective mediums

138
00:09:42,480 --> 00:09:48,680
for hundreds even thousands of years but now you've got an official app which

139
00:09:46,560 --> 00:09:53,480
will be synced to iCloud using endtoend encryption the app will make suggestions

140
00:09:51,279 --> 00:09:57,959
from time to time but this processing is apparently all done on your device and

141
00:09:55,519 --> 00:10:01,880
apple says that not even they can view your Journal speaking of third party

142
00:09:59,920 --> 00:10:05,240
apps getting sherlocked you can now make grocery lists that automatically sort

143
00:10:03,720 --> 00:10:10,399
items into categories for easier shopping pretty neat but not as neat as

144
00:10:08,120 --> 00:10:14,920
Apple finally getting its own PDF reader that can view and mark up PDFs research

145
00:10:12,560 --> 00:10:18,560
papers and more it even has enhanced autofill so that you can use saved

146
00:10:16,600 --> 00:10:24,079
information from contacts to quickly fill out a PDF or a scanned document

147
00:10:21,279 --> 00:10:27,959
super cool but wait there's still more seriously man I'm considering it better

148
00:10:26,279 --> 00:10:32,320
autocorrect and predictive text like you've got in Gmail so Safari profiles

149
00:10:30,160 --> 00:10:36,240
to keep work and home separate autofill Verification codes from your mail visual

150
00:10:34,519 --> 00:10:41,959
lookup to research objects in your photos password and pass key sharing

151
00:10:38,680 --> 00:10:43,800
adaptive audio for airpods offline apps

152
00:10:41,959 --> 00:10:47,920
it just keeps going they've improved quite a few things here and I'm of

153
00:10:45,680 --> 00:10:51,440
course happy to see that but one of the biggest ones is one I haven't talked

154
00:10:49,360 --> 00:10:56,079
about yet the health app they've got an entire separate page for this because

155
00:10:53,519 --> 00:11:00,399
aside from it finally coming to iPad there are some new features it'll be it

156
00:10:58,279 --> 00:11:04,480
coming soon but new features that look very promising especially these days

157
00:11:02,480 --> 00:11:08,639
with Medical Care being harder to access and tons of people suffering from long

158
00:11:06,200 --> 00:11:12,279
covid symptoms soon you'll be able to use more devices to better track

159
00:11:10,519 --> 00:11:15,480
