Following the announcement of the new iPhone SE, Mac Studio, the new Mac Studio Display and the updated iPod Air, Apple has announced that the iOS 15.4 update will be available starting next week.
This is the fourth major evolution of iOS 15, which was introduced with the iPhone 13 last September. The beta version of iOS 15.4 is available for download. As with all unstable software releases, it is recommended that you install it on a test device, not on your primary smartphone.
What is the release date of iOS 15.4?
Apple has not announced the exact release date for iOS 15.4, but said that this update will be available as a free upgrade next week. The new iPhone 13 Green, iPhone 13 Pro Alpine Green and the new iPhone SE will be shipped with iOS 15.4 pre-installed.
How to download iOS 15.4 beta?
You must register first
Apple beta software program. Next, download the configuration profile from Apple. Go to this and find the latest beta version Settings> General> Software Update And select Download and install.
What is Universal Control?
Universal Control allows other devices to be used as a second screen, moving content between them seamlessly. This much-anticipated feature was first announced for the MacOS Monterey, but late in the fall, a new timeline called “This Spring”. Universal Control appeared in the iOS 15.4 beta and will launch in general beta with the Monterey OS 12.3 and iPadOS 15.4 updates.
Can I use Face ID with the mask?
Apple is updating its Face ID technology so it can be used with a mask. This involves tapping a small part of the face to verify the identity, which means that the angle at which you hold the iPhone will be more specific when using Face ID. This update should work for those who wear sunglasses and not sunglasses.
What are the new emojis?
If you are a fan of emojis, you will love iOS 15.4. This update includes 37 new emojis for pregnant women, including heart-forming hands, hello and lip-biting emojis.
Another feature in iOS 15.4 is the ability to copy text from objects using the camera in notes or reminder applications. iOS 15.4 Beta also fixes an error related to Siri interaction recordings.
