iOS 15.2 is updated.

The official version of iOS 15.2 is online, and the most high-profile updates are the APP Privacy Report and the Digital Legacy Program. In recent years, the supervision of personal information protection has become more and more stringent, and users have paid more and more attention to the acquisition of personal information by mobile apps. According to Apple's official website, after the official version of iOS 15.2 is updated, users can view the frequency of accessing location, photos, cameras, microphones, contacts and other content and their network activities in the past seven days through the "App Privacy Report" in the "Settings".

In addition, the topic of whether personal data can be inherited has long been widely discussed. The Civil Code, which began to be implemented this year, has included online virtual property in the scope of protection of inheritance; at the same time, WeChat, Alipay, Weibo and many other enterprises have previously made provisions on virtual property inheritance, most of which require that accounts are only used by users themselves, and cannot be donated, inherited, leased, transferred, etc. Official iOS 15.2 information shows that the officially launched Digital Legacy program designates someone as an inheritance contact, giving them access to their iCloud account and personal information after the user's death.

In addition to the App Privacy Report and Digital Legacy Program, iOS 15.2 officially introduces the Apple Music voice-activated solution, which allows users to access all songs, playlists, and radio stations in Apple Music using Siri. In terms of camera updates, users can enable macro photo controls in Settings on iPhone 13 Pro and iPhone 13 Pro Max to switch to ultra-wide lenses for macro photos and videos.

On December 14, the topic of #Apple Watch online ELECTROCardiogram function was on Weibo's hot search. According to the information on Apple's official website, on December 13, the mobile ECG atrial fibrillation prompt software and the mobile pulse rate atrial fibrillation prompt software have been launched in China with watchOS 8.3 and iOS 15.2. The two software, combined with the Apple Watch, helps users identify signs of atrial fibrillation. Mobile ECG atrial fibrillation cue software allows customers to create a single-channel ECG on the watch similar to the lead I. ECG.

Nandu reporter inquired about Apple's official website and learned that the mobile ECG atrial fibrillation prompt software is suitable for Apple Watch Series 4 and subsequent models (excluding Apple Watch SE), and requires the installation of the latest version of iOS and watchOS.

According to reports, to record the ELECTROCardiogram, the user can start the mobile ECG atrial fibrillation prompt software on the Apple Watch, and press and hold the digital crown with his finger. After 30 seconds, heart rhythms will be classified as atrial fibrillation (AFib), sinus rhythms, low or high heart rates, or uncertainty. When arrhythmia is detected, the mobile pulse rate atrial fibrillation alert software prompts the possible presence of atrial fibrillation in due course when sufficient data is available for analysis.
