Apple rolled out iOS 15 RC and iPadOS 15 RC on Tuesday, shortly after its big iPhone 13 reveal event came to a close. The release candidates are the final versions of the software that Apple seeds out to developers ahead of the public launch of the update. Everyone with an eligible device will be able to get their hands on iOS 15 and iPadOS 15 next Monday, which is the full public release.
First of all, we should point out that all of the devices that were supported by iOS 14 will be supported by iOS 15 as well, so if you were able to update to iOS 14, you’re in the clear for at least one more year, even if you’re still using an iPhone 6s Plus, an iPad Air 2, or an iPad mini 4.
As for the new features, iOS 15 is upgrading FaceTime with spatial audio, a grid view, Portrait Mode, and SharePlay to share music, movies, and more during video calls. The new Focus feature lets you make custom modes to decide which notifications you see depending on what time it is and where you are, Live Text can recognize text and make it selectable, and a few apps are getting significant redesigns, including Maps and Weather. All in all, it’s a pretty substantial update.
