favorite feature

[Chris Cook5]

I was just wondering what everybody’s favorite feature was on iOS 18

 

[Just_Me_D]

Live Activities via the Sports App.
RCS support
Reminders in the Calendar app
Send Later feature

RCS support. I use both Samsung and Apple, so I'm glad to see I can use them both together for texting.

The send later would have been a favorite, but as usual Apple has to half bake things and make it only for iPhone to iPhone. I'll just have to lean on the trustworthy Samsung for that feature

Dark icons on the Home Screen.

Apple passwords app

You can switch off the unencrypted RCS protocol

Send later for iMessage

New Control center

Apple notes can now do math.

Thanos snap ads in safari

New photos app

AirPods gestures

Multilingual keyboard support, RCS support and Send Later.

I'm not sure that I have a single favorite, but I do like the reorganized Settings app, send later for messages (I've already done this).

My gripe with the Settings app is not having the ability to rearrange the order of the items therein.

I’ll add the fancy flashlight.

 

[nikkisharif]

Control Center is my fave!

Send Later

RCS (although group messaging is still weird at times)

Math in Notes

The ability to reorganize the Photos app

ETA: I also love the fancy flashlight lol

For me, the top two features are the Apple Passwords app and the Reminders feature in the Calendar app.

I can't handle reminders in the calendars app. I have daily reminders, and it blows up the calendar with every day an underscored day. Looks weird. LOL

You can disable those by going into the Calendar list.


And disabling the “Scheduled Reminders” virtual calendar.

That was not my point. My point is, I can not use that feature because of how it looks. So I keep it disabled. It looks different on iPhone. I don't see what you show in your small screen shot.

I'm sharing how to disable it

The screenshot is taken from iPadOS 18, so an iPad.

Yes. I figured it was iPad. The iPhone doesn't show as much. I have meds scheduled several times each day in Reminders. So it looks weird on Calendar.

For me the UI changes to the home screens for sure. The RCS feature is nice as well as I have some family members on Android devices and being able to see things like read receipts now is very helpful.
