Yes !! As a long-time Android user, I keep asking myself with my new iPhone why Apple is still so far behind in terms of customization options, freedom in designing the user interface and numerous other user-friendly functions of Android. I am already looking forward to buying an Android phone again soon and being able to leave the deadlocked Apple tragedy behind me ;)
Because they are being smart about it, they easily could have implemented these features many years ago, but back then everything was getting customization. In doing so now, they everyone will be more excited about it because they have wanted it for a long time

DID I JUST HEAR RECORDING WITHOUT HAVING TO PAUSE SYSTEM AUDIO ?? FINALLYYYYYY I’ve watched maaany videos about this update and you’re the only one who has mentioned this.
@@ranjeetsohanpal752 Well, it won’t be a light update then, still. I guess I’ll wait and see before I update, I don’t wanna get the initial, potentially buggy version.
I am too because that’s the only thing I missed about having Samsung is the Samsung theme this update still doesn’t compare I haven’t did it yet but with Samsung theme everything changed from the Lock Screen to the settings app was all customized this update doesn’t offer that from what I’ve seen so far
I agree. I've always had android and I have been using these features for years. It's nice to see apple getting into customizing and giving people options... I will say that moving icons on the screen is kind of crazy to me, I've been doing that since like 2012, kind of seconf nature.. I dont mean that as a diss , but it's crazy how that's "new" or "innovative " lol. To each their own. I've always enjoyed the scheduling of texts, love that feature.
I was an android guy and switched to iPhone in 2020. And I realized then, and now, while reading comments, I never cared about customization 😅😸 I would change a wallpaper once in a while and a ringtone once in a blue moon. But I can only remember downloading one song to my old flip Sony Ericsson phone. It even wasn’t an Android I think 😅 and I never touched icons, nor did I move them around 😸 sometimes when I deleted apps, I would have a gap 😸 but I never rearranged them because it would mean I had to learn a new location of my apps. 😅😸 but I love how some people customize their phones 😻
While iOS 18 is really cool and there are so many little things that enhances the experience, this initial release is buggy. I recommend waiting on iOS 17.7 until Apple fixes an uncountable amount of bugs and battery drain if you value more battery life in a day. Overall, this first release is unfinished...
Being a creative designer of different things in general, I absolutely LOVE the new iOS 18! It helped me complete my Marvel Gold and black Black Panther design theme with a Gold app design. I love the new app face ID feature too. The new update overall makes me even more happy to be an iPhone owner/user now lol. 😆
@@WillBowers do you get special permission from apple to review the phones early? or do you have to wait for the phone to arrive like regular customers? do you know any creators that do?

Hey Will! How do you get the Not Boring Weather app widget to display the weekly weather like that? I can only get it to display the daily weather! TYIA!
lol i laughed when he said that you can put icons anywhere on your screen now! cause that's what we android users have been able to do for a decade now.
I’ve just switched from a Samsung a14 to a iPhone 13 using its u.i takes a lot out me to remember and I’m the call app there’s no redial it annoys me cause I live in Jamaica, right now I’m missing ppsspp games I’ll be getting back my Samsung soon
AHHHHH I want IOS18 sooooo bad but I cannot stand that scrubbing on the redesigned photos app 😭. Please keep us updated if they ever backtrack and go back to the original scrubbing
There are some very frustrating problems too though, especially the lack of customization of the control center, where you can’t remove AirDrop from their new “Connectivity” group to bring back cellular data like it was, and the fact that control center doesn’t have a standalone WiFi on/off switch. So either you use their unnecessary connectivity group or make your own WiFi switch in shortcuts. That’s absolutely outrageous in 2024!
I love iOS 18, in concept. I haven’t updated yet. I love iOS 18, the control center took getting used to when I first demo’d it, but that photos app redesign is a redesign for the worse. That’s what’s keeping me on 17.7.1.
I would be more interested in you sharing what performance degradation users might expect from specific updates. We all know Apple does this in order to get people to order new phones faster.
I’ve had iOS 18 since the first beta release a couple of months ago there been minor bugs every now and then but other than that it runs smooth and gameplay really isn’t affected.
Which phones does it come out for though? I’ve got an iPhone 8 and have been looking to upgrade for a while now, but I don’t know what phone I should do.
I’ve been using android for many years and now I bought the new iPhone 16 Pro and really love it. But one thing would be nice that android has is when you lift the bar and see all the applications, on android you can share any images from any apps just by skidding it on a contact. It even works with TH-cam video. You can also select text even from an image, translate it, make easy screenshot, and many other tasks. On the iPhone, it is only for browsing through apps.
Okay so is there any issues with screen time requests with the iOS 18 update? I’ve heard some people talking about how that’s a problem with the beta version, but I’m not sure if that’s still the case for the official release that just came out. Thank you!
I have mistakenly downloaded the release candidate version of iOS 18. Is there a way to get the standard ios 18 public version coz the phone shows iPhone is up to date with 18 and no updates available. Or do I need to wait for 18.1 public
I don’t like it ! I have tested it on another device and it hasn’t done anything that I can’t get with iOS 17 so far and the little improvements like customization hasn’t made it so amazing for me to update all of my devices. The worst is the photos app. The layout is bad!
The freedom to customize the home screen is very nice.

for sure, very inconvenient to watch all shorts
yes!!
“Heavy focus on customisation” just like you focus only on “apple” & can’t see out of it

Ability to schedule msgs and not pause audio while recording is actually huge 😔
Sadly you cant edit the messages text you can only change the time for the schedule so if you had a typo you would have to retype the whole thing
@@lime7152 Bruh 😭 did you download 18?
Recording video without pausing audio is the most underrated update! Been using Instagram or Snapchat camera for years just to do that!
You can already do that since iOS 10 by simply staying on PHOTO mode then sliding the PHOTO button to the right.

You can just go to the keypad, make sure it's empty. And click on the call button.

Why is rcs messaging limited to certain phones? Hardware shouldn’t be an issue for rcs messaging.

Does scheduling messages notify the person who receives the message that the message was pre typed/scheduled?
There’s a really easy way to have a blank page anywhere it makes the phone layout look amazing.
Will my iPhone XR receive the apple intelligence update or is that only for the later models
I have the 18.1 update right now, Apple AI isn’t available yet, but being able to record phone calls to note has me a little worried
