iOS 15.4 official version of the experience, iPhone 13 incense burst

Although Apple released a large number of new products at last week's spring conference, such as: the green iPhone 13, the cheapest 5G iPhone SE 3, the strongest chip on the surface M1 Ultra and so on. But the fruit is not interested in them at all, it is really not that the wallet has no money

What Guozi is most concerned about is actually the official iOS 15.4 system. And just this morning, Apple finally pushed the official version of iOS 15.4 for iPhone users! So I immediately put the iPhone 13 Pro Max in my hand non-Hainan duty-free Apple Care + 1TB Emperor Edition completed the upgrade ~ after staying up late to experience, the fruit has only one word evaluation - real TMD incense!

These iPhones can be unlocked with a mask

For the fruit, under the premise of not wearing a mask, I prefer the face unlock ~ after all, people with sweaty hands like the fruit can't be identified by fingerprint unlocking many times. Of course, under the trend of wearing masks for all people today, face unlocking has become very chicken... Whenever Guozi went downstairs to "7-11" to buy something and showed the payment code, he had to go through it again: face recognition error - click on the password to pay - enter the payment password, the efficiency is simply ridiculously slow...

After upgrading to the official version of iOS 15.4, in the "Face ID and Password" option, you can select "Wear a mask to use Face ID"! The recording process is the same as recording Face ID, and if you're recording with glasses on, you'll need to take off your glasses before you can continue recording. Of course, after the recording is successful, you can also select "Wear Glasses" in the settings to add your glasses-wearing face. And oh, if you have more than one pair of glasses like a fruit, you can also wear a pair of inputs, and the iPhone will keep the information. However, unlocking when wearing a mask does not support sunglasses, because Face ID cannot read the information of your eyes

As for the difference in the recognition speed between wearing a mask and not wearing a mask, it is basically the same in the eyes of the fruit: it is very fast, and the recognition rate is also very high

And more importantly, iOS 15.4 this mask unlocks: in addition to unlocking, it can also be used for payment, app purchase, auto-fill password, etc.! That said, this is not a "castrated version" of the mask-wearing unlock, but a full-featured Face ID.

But after all, most of the face is covered, and the recognition accuracy of using face ID wearing a mask is worse than that of face ID without a mask: for example, when you don't look at it, you will be prompted to "look down to unlock" when unlocking.

More importantly, the ability to unlock iPhone with a mask is only supported on iPhone 12 series and above. iPhone 11 series and below notch models and iPads that support Face ID do not have this feature... Apple's explanation for this is that the old model does not support the deep fusion function, and the NPU computing power is not enough ~ but I understand it ~ I want everyone to buy a new iPhone! At the same time, users below the iPhone 11 model can buy apple watches to unlock. Cook's wave is simply "killing two birds with one stone" ah~

The new emoji emoji is coming, and it's more whole

Chinese culture is broad and profound, like Chinese, and saying it in a different tone will have different meanings. For example, if you send a message back to your girlfriend saying "I know" three words: it is likely to be interpreted as "angry", "impatient", and then trigger the Cold War... But if you add a (dog's head) emoji to this sentence, the situation is completely different

Apple added support for the emoji 14 standard in iOS 15.4 and introduced a series of new emojis. Such as pregnant men (men who are full), melted faces, salutes, lip bites, oblique faces, hearts, and so on. Emoji 14 has 37 new emojis and 75 skin tone additions, for a total of 112 new emoticons.

However, it should be noted that the device can only send and display the new emoji emoji normally after upgrading iOS/iPadOS 15.4.

Stronger, more secure anti-tracking capabilities

Last year, Apple released a very interesting product , airtag. Many people think that AirTag will be very useful, helping people find their personal belongings faster. However, security issues such as illegal tracking and theft caused by AirTag have attracted the attention of many consumers. For example, after being put into an AirTag by others, the mobile phone will not remind itself that it has been tracked... After upgrading to iOS 15.4, the AirTag anti-tracking function has finally been enhanced!

Now when airTag losers are added to iOS 15.4 systems, an alert appears on iPhone to inform users that it is a crime to use AirTags to track others without permission in many parts of the world, and that law enforcement can request the owner's identity information.

In addition, when an unknown find network accessory is detected nearby (such as AirTag or similar products): iPhone will pop up with reminders to avoid the user being tracked, and you can customize how notification alerts appear. Included in the "Find App - Me" interface, a portal to set notifications has also been added.

Update the system to available cellular data

Earlier, iPhone models that supported 5G could turn on "Allow more data to use when 5G" was turned on in the cellular network settings to download system updates through traffic. After upgrading the iOS 15.4 system, Apple also relaxed the restrictions on downloading updates with traffic on 4G models. Of course, I still don't recommend that you use traffic to update the system, if you are very rich, then when I did not say it~

Show grace loves a new way, share with the broadcast

In the official version of iOS15.4, the SharePlay sharing function has been added, you can call FaceTime to share to your girlfriend after selecting good music and videos.

What, you tell me you're still a single dog? It doesn't matter, you can also choose to share the music with your friends after you have it.

iPhone 13, smoother and silkier

Yes, after updating iOS 15.4, another obvious point of the improvement of The fruit's iPhone 13 Pro Max is that the system animation is more silky and smooth, and many third-party apps, such as Weibo, WeChat, Taobao, etc., are also faster for daily browsing and sliding ~ This should be related to the support of iOS 15.4 with new third-party applications for 120Hz high refresh rate. The developer @Christian Selig test has successfully detected a refresh rate of 1/120 = 8.33ms.

Update recommendations

If your phone is the iPhone 13 series, my advice is – update now! First of all, this system version provides everyone with a very practical and just needed "wear a mask to unlock" function. Secondly, as far as the current use experience of the fruit is concerned, the stability and fluency are very good! As for the battery life, the overall feeling of the fruit is the same as the factory version just purchased, it is quite strong ~ really, the latest model does not dare to upgrade the system, I suggest that you provide the iPhone on the good ~

And the iPhone 12 series, the fruit of the recommendation or update iOS 15.4 bar. After all, the "Wear Mask To Unlock" feature is really practical! Of course, if you don't care about the "wear mask to unlock" feature. I like to enter the password, and attach great importance to the battery life, then I suggest that you can not update the system, directly "pension" ~

If it's an iPhone 11 series and below, my advice is – don't update to iOS 15.4! The reason is simple, you can not experience the "wear a mask to unlock" new function, the battery life may also be directly bloody. Finally, I have to admire, Cook's knife technique is really accurate!
