Apple’s developers hosted their annual Worldwide Developer Conference and debuted iOS 15. Here are all the features coming to your iPhone this fall: wired.trib.al/NxUPYFB 1/

Live Text is making life easier. Simply point your camera app at anything with text, and it will highlight the text, making it ready for you to easily copy it and paste it to another app—this works for images with text in your Photos library too. 2/

Facetime is getting a facelift. Like the similar feature in the Camera app, portrait mode will be available on Facetime to keep your face in focus while blurring out the background for a more polished presentation. 3/

Sharing is caring. SharePlay is making it easier than ever to share movies, music, and your screen with anyone you're FaceTiming with—feel free to jump around to AppleTV, TikTok, Disney+, and other participating apps while staying connected and in sync. 4/

Background noise got you down? Voice Isolation and Wide Spectrum are here to save the day. The former will cut out all ambient noise so whoever's on the other end just hears your voice. The latter will try and pick up all sounds in your surroundings. 5/

No need to get overwhelmed by the endless list of notifications on your iPhone. iOS 15 gives you a new way to manage them. The new Notification Summary allows you to check unimportant alerts at specific times of day to help you keep balanced. 6/

No wallet, no problem. You’ll now be able to scan your driver's license with the iPhone's camera & add it to the Wallet app—this is only available in participating states for now. A seemingly low-key announcement could well be the most impactful: wired.trib.al/N1i1xQ0 7/
