No big features yet the update size was so big
You started the video with 66% not bad
What do you think of Ads in Apple Maps?
the only thing apple maps had over google was no-ad experience, now there is literally no reason to be using a-maps over g-maps
I wonder if Brandon has ever said not to update
At least Apple Intelligence is still in beta almost two calendar years later! Woohoo Apple! Crushing it!
I remember when .5 updates were exciting and featured huge changes.
Awesome, Looking forward to IOS 27 now in June!!
Your ads on maps explanation isn’t helpful.
I’m going to write a 1-star review for any company that shows up in an AD on maps.
That was fast
The new wallpaper with all the shades of green is dope. Especially with always on.
it’s smooth and fast so cool
Between the false advertising by Apple and the lackluster updates (no value, just pretty paint), this is yet another big YAWN!!!!
The reason I’m not ditching WhatsApp yet is because if I send a message to a group on WhatsApp it tells me if it was delivered so I know when I can turn off my cell. Unlike messages just hope the blue bar actually sent
6.2GB on IPhone 15? Im on 26.4 right now going to update soon. I hope that they at least provided 100 fixes to justify this huge GB number
Hey Brandon, Any chance on covering Macos updates in the future, I think they'll be great!
Well glad to see they have updated the ID check for UK customers to include passports.
Fuck ads, apparently the company doesn't make enough fucking money. Turning more and more into Microsoft every update
Downloading the update while I watch this
