If anyone wants my collection of unhinged / dumb emojis here they are on Google Drive: drive.google.com/drive/folders/1LSrgk0qzFYUJypUAOkvP_GTr94PlKctK?usp=sharing Several of them I made myself in photoshop, others I found. You can add them as a sticker in iOS by viewing them in Photos and long pressing on them, it should automatically extract it out, then you can hit "Add Sticker".
I get what you mean by your phrasing, that there's no direct mention of Apple Intelligence here, but I'm pretty darned sure that math notes feature is powered by their "AI" stuff behind-the-scenes. But the user-facing experience hides all that crap from you, just type, it's intended to just work as expected (but we'll have to see how that pans out once real people start using it).
Another not talked about feature: for audio nerds like me, Voice Memoes now supports recording in stereo. Go to settings, apps, voice memos, then toggle stereo recording on
Joe! You gotta check out under accessibility settings! There is eye tracking which can help select things hands free. Takes a bit of time to set up but I can see how it'd be useful for some people.
I’m a total fan of albums and photo folders. Apps just made my library look like a mess. The fact that they go straight to the created folder is awesome 😍
I’ve been really happy with the update. Just switched to the 16 a week ago, but I’m struggling a bit because I’m not sure what screen protector to put on it
One small feature they added was to add a background sounds toggle in the control center. Previously it was buried in the settings no not a lot of people knew or used that feature. What the background sounds feature does is basically being a simple white noise generator. It has some few different sounds like rain, waves, white noise etc. the sounds also can play over other content so it’s good for relaxing or sleeping. Before the feature was mostly unusable since it’s buried deep in the settings but now that you can put a simple toggle button it’s nice to use.
Could you please make a tutorial on how to remove the shortcuts app notification for custom widgets (ios 18) I cannot find a tutorial anywhere and the notifications showing every time I open my apps are annoying. Please help!!
I’m more excited about the changes now since watching your videos! This has got to be one of the best videos I’ve seen for new features with iOS 18. Explained well, and to the point. New sub. Thank you!
Hi ThioJoe, There is supposed to be a way to record incoming and outgoing phone calls as well. I would love to see the step by step ways to get this to work! Thanks
This is exactly the video I needed today! One thing I've noticed is that legacy widgets are no longer supported. I used the Google home and kasa widgets multiple times a day to control devices in my home.
What I found different with IOS 18 is they made it simple for old people to use. I am using my iPhone now for more things then I ever did before. I make notes on it, use the calendar, the calculator, so no more just making phone calls and picture taking. I love it. When up dates came out I use to think Oh God another two weeks of learning and then doing nothing but make calls take pictures. This time after seeing a video on OIS 18 I had to download it right away. I am so happy I did. I am one very happy 75 year old woman who loves her phone.
You win the TH-cam award for “clearly communicating the largest amount of useful information in the shortest amount of time”. It’s a very impressive skill that is rare these days.
Best thing I've seen is the attention to detail when you press a button on the side of the phone. Try increasing and decreasing the volume and watch the screen near to where the button is. It's the little things!!
Hi Joe, as an Android user for more than a decade (I think I've only touched an iPhone once), what do you think will be the first thing that will shock, amaze, or surprise me when I start using an iPhone/iOS?
The photos app is the first app to remind me I’m old and cranky haha. I’m so used to the old app that I don’t want change but the more I play with the new one shows me it’s actually better
My daughter watched this video and found it interesting, there were some features even she didn't know about, and shes pretty good with thumb wrestling a phone!
for apple music users; apple music now has a proper add to queue feature that spotify has had for ages; what used to be play last has now become add to queue and it creates a separate queue that will finish playing before continuing with whatever playlist was playing before
I was hesitant about iOS 18 because some of the major changes were donkey, But thank god you made this video because I actually love these little changes! 😅
Another cool notes/calculation thing is that if in notes you handwrite, for example, “7+7=“ it’ll solve it and even show the number in a handwriting font. I saw a video somewhere saying it tries to match your handwriting but not sure how true that part is. Still cool though
I also noticed that you can now place an app anywhere you want on a virgin phone page screen on your phone instead of it placing the app automatically at the top left corner of the phone screen.
Would you please do a video on things like simple algebraic equations? I can’t figure out how to a solve a simple 4x x 3y if x=6 and y=8 on the calculator app.
For me the calendar reminders + month detail view and bilingual keyboard (I’m a German who uses English like half of the time but could never use autocorrect etc) And the control centre (assuming they’ll fix the arrangement issues) Are the most important ones. They make my phone much more useful
Thio_Joe in the section that you were in when you scrolled down from the top right if you look to the right you will see a heart, music and WiFi symbols scroll down and you can directly to your music recently played or your connections such as Wi-Fi, Bluetooth and other connections. I thought this was rather neat and a good idea.
They finally gave us a font option for the time on the front screen, thats my favorite thing about the update so far, although when I was a kid I did it on my jailbroken ipod touch🤣 I do wish that we could choose the font for our keyboard too
There are some cool new functionality in the Magnifier application. Also, under privacy and security, there’s a button to toggle on to protect us from pictures of naked people… true story.. Thanks for the video
I'm just glad they got rid of the swiping left and right in the Photos app. That was in the first few dev betas and public betas and I found it unusably bad. Great video as always! Edit: also i forgot to mention, I LOVE vehicle motion cues! It was kinda broken at first but now that it seems to work properly, it's great and helps me out a ton.
A few years ago, your video about the LG G6 convinced me to buy it. And it was worth it. Now, I think I'm going to use an iPhone for the first time because of you (Though Samsung will still be my main phone)
Control Center is hit and miss - for example why are there Separate button controls available for Airplane, Mobile Data, Hotspot and Bluetooth BUT NOT Wifi. I hope the next update corrects this.
its not a feature persay but just a cool added thing i haven't seen many people talk about, when you press buttons, like volume up and down ect, theres a little indent that goes on the side of the screen to make it feel and look like you've pressed it

Joe you're not sending them to us in SVG
I was gonna look it up on google after this video. Thanks for the quick link❤
That emoji is downright terrifying 😂😂😂
In roblox RCS stands for Roblox Chat Simulator 😂
Finally a video about iOS 18 features that isn't about Apple Intelligence
Really ? I’ve seen more videos like that than apple intelligence
I get what you mean by your phrasing, that there's no direct mention of Apple Intelligence here, but I'm pretty darned sure that math notes feature is powered by their "AI" stuff behind-the-scenes. But the user-facing experience hides all that crap from you, just type, it's intended to just work as expected (but we'll have to see how that pans out once real people start using it).
@@TheNuttGuysame, especially given apple intelligence doesn’t exist on ios 18
You forgot the inverted commas around Intelligence.
@@HavingFunTimes yeah, because there is no apple intelligence in iOS18
That math notes feature is pretty cool actually
It's also available in other apple apps, like notes.
Apple finally doing something right taking jailbreak features and refining them
Another not talked about feature: for audio nerds like me, Voice Memoes now supports recording in stereo. Go to settings, apps, voice memos, then toggle stereo recording on
YES, this is an amazing video highlighting those awesome QOL features and actually explaining them properly. Thanks!
The calculator changes are cool.
Joe! You gotta check out under accessibility settings! There is eye tracking which can help select things hands free. Takes a bit of time to set up but I can see how it'd be useful for some people.
It's the subtle updates that gives life to iPhone and makes it sooo much better! We love hidden updates!
My iPhone 7 looked at me and gulped when I started watching this
My iphone 17 too
same with my iphone SE 1
@@KimYoungUn69 iPhone 17 isn’t even here yet
@@M3WTTV it’s there even the iPhone fold phone is there
yooo it’s man
Superb video, packed with really handy suggestions. So much more useful than control panel customization, etc
Your video is more organized comparing others. Big like
The best video about iOS 18 features, and I watched like 10 of them at this point. Good work!
I’m a total fan of albums and photo folders. Apps just made my library look like a mess. The fact that they go straight to the created folder is awesome 😍
I’ve been really happy with the update. Just switched to the 16 a week ago, but I’m struggling a bit because I’m not sure what screen protector to put on it
Vionentus privacy screen protectors are next level
You’re on my team.. I literally can’t use anything other than a privacy screen.
The one I have is awesome because it doesn’t kill your eyes like some others
+1 for Vionentus, the screen protector works great
This is a more useful video than other TH-cam creator videos.
This is why I love this guy, I kind of never watched any video on the topic except for our guy
One of the best videos on iOS 18 ! Excellent! Very useful, just appropriate speed, easy to understand!
A comprehensive insight to some not so talked about features in iOS 18. Thank you.

@@Hartbreak1 definitely glad it is more accessible. Such an underrated feature to begin with honestly
I had made a shortcut for it myself. Nice of it to be accessible now
I have gotten car sick my whole life and the vehicle motion cues really help
The T9 feature was by far my most useful thing that I missed when switching from android to apple. I’m so excited that it’s an apple feature now!
Could you please make a tutorial on how to remove the shortcuts app notification for custom widgets (ios 18)
I cannot find a tutorial anywhere and the notifications showing every time I open my apps are annoying. Please help!!
Thank you …this was so helpful for me
Cracking explanation, TJ, more than anyone else has given us. Well done.

I've just figured out I can make shortcuts for kasa scenes and put them in the control centre, so that will do for now
Simply the best, most useful stuff! Been my go-to channel for all stuff Windows, and now the iPhone too haha! Thanks 😊
I know this guy from like 6 years back and learn alot from it.
Thanks ThioJoe

At last, one of those “allll the features” videos that’s actually super useful. Thanks for this!
Super excited about the new updates and the ones you spoke about in your video. Thank you
At last, someone who doesn't just copy all other reviewers. Thank you, I actually learned some stuff. Well done 🙂
2:18 So glad to see a fellow Apollo sideloader
He could just have it to bump download counts on OF AppStore, or just never bothered deleting it, or using it more of a support symbol...
Love that they try to make things easier for us to use. How far we ve come since first iPhone 🎉
i’m actually so happy for this update
I just checked my flashlight and I have the about to change the focus. Thank you for the Tip
Great features! SLOW DOWN!!
Yes, please slow down.
Very many thanks for these "hidden" tips! Some of them are really useful for me.
Best thing I've seen is the attention to detail when you press a button on the side of the phone. Try increasing and decreasing the volume and watch the screen near to where the button is. It's the little things!!
Crazy it’s taken this long for the pause feature while recording.
Loved your performance in Zombieland 😂
Great video, thanks for sharing stuff that’s not just apple intelligence
Ok. This was actually useful
ThioJoe iPhone 16 pro or should I wait for S25 ultra?
Hi Joe, as an Android user for more than a decade (I think I've only touched an iPhone once), what do you think will be the first thing that will shock, amaze, or surprise me when I start using an iPhone/iOS?
Hm I’d have to think about it cuz i’ve used it so long 🤔
The best thing about Apple is that their features actually work reliably, they aren’t gimmicky like a lot of android features
@@ThioJoe 🙂👍🏻 okay
no bugs - no adware - no virus
Literally everything.
THIS VIDEO - Thio - is awesome! Thank you 🙏 😊
The best video about iOs 18 features i ever watched! ❤️❤️

t9 dialing! what a relic of the past
Great review!!!😮
Interesting video.
I know I will use the charger indicator from time to time.
This was spectacular! Thank you!
Very informative video thanks Theo Joe
Not sure if you read all the comments, but I am a iOS guru and I MISSED the folders in the Photos. That is GIANT!!! Thanks!!
THANK YOU BEAUTIFUL INFO
Awesome 👏🏾 video definitely different from the other video😂🤜🤛
Great video! Learned a few things despite being on the beta for a couple months now.
i just saw this new aesthetic feature thats cool to me. when u press any side button on your phone it will show a notch depending on where u press it
Outstanding review, learned a lot from your review. 👍
Some great items in here! Brilliant
Fantastic. Thank you.
I was hesitant about iOS 18 because some of the major changes were donkey,
But thank god you made this video because I actually love these little changes! 😅
definitely subscribed after watching this
Wow great video, well delivered, clean concise and very to the point. Thank you for your great video!
An awesome video! The really good one is the extra in the calculator app.👍👏
The most useful video on iOS 18 I've seen. Thanks!
Bruh the Eye Tracking is dope
Can control everything just with your eyes.
Needs alil refining though.
Another cool notes/calculation thing is that if in notes you handwrite, for example, “7+7=“ it’ll solve it and even show the number in a handwriting font. I saw a video somewhere saying it tries to match your handwriting but not sure how true that part is. Still cool though

13:41 Now you can photos into folders can you delete from library and they will still be folder?

Great video!
Appreciate you doing this dude! Great work
This looks good, this too is avaliable in ipad? (all versions)
What are your thoughts on setting up a computer offline? I'm finding it surprisingly hard to do.
Outstanding !
How do I get to customize my lock screen? Where can I find that option?
I wish you had explained the photos folders thing. I have no idea how to get to that.
Control Center is hit and miss - for example why are there Separate button controls available for Airplane, Mobile Data, Hotspot and Bluetooth BUT NOT Wifi. I hope the next update corrects this.
what’s the shortcut in the Vocal Shortcuts timestamp?
Most of these features we have on Android for long time now :)
