iOS 15 released! Is your iPhone compatible with new blockbuster features?
APPLE has now released iOS 15 to iPhones across the world. Find out whether your handset is compatible with this all-new upgrade.
Apple fans have now been treated to the next blockbuster version of iOS. Dubbed iOS 15, the new operating system was announced back in June at the firm's WWDC Developers Conference and includes better FaceTime calls with background noise reduction, improved Apple Maps and a redesigned Safari web browser that's more streamlined and easy to use.
Other extras include Live Text, which adds the ability to copy-paste any text from within a photo, and Focus Mode, which allows users to switch off certain notifications and change the apps on thier homescreen based on the time of day or what they're doing – so you can have email alerts when you're in 'work' mode, but disable them completely at home.
Not available at launch, but coming soon is something called SharePlay which will offer the ability to watch movies together with everyone able to interact with the film even if they are on different sides of the world.
SharePlay also works with Apple Music and Apple Fitness+ meaning you can listen to playlists and workout with friends online.
