The joy about the fresh iOS 16 subsided slightly, and I began to notice some innovations and “chips” of the operating system, without which it would be really more convenient and better.
For example, the new search process, which appeared in place of the “dots” on the main screen, can safely be (here’s how to do it), as well as sudden collections of photos from personal media libraries that can be dangerous too personal.
To the credit of the guys from Cupertino, there are not many such functions, and all can be dealt with using the iPhone settings.
And it will only get better.
1. Disable Sidebar Call Control
If you accidentally press the power button on the side of your iPhone while on a phone call, hang up. This feature is enabled by default on the smartphone, but you can use it in iOS 16.
Go to Settings – Accessibility – Touch and move the toggle switch “Call End Prevention» to inactive position.
Now, if you accidentally press the side button during a call, the iPhone will go to sleep, but the active call will not be dropped.
2. We prohibit making and showing photo collections from the media library
Your iPhone constantly collects collections of photos by itself, united by a single theme, such as a vacation, an event, or a period of time.
Sometimes a smartphone shows you these settings as a reminder of a good time, but it’s not a fact that others appreciate these pictures, which may include too personal or inappropriate.
In iOS 16, you can show public featured photos or Memories in photo widgets on the Home screen and in the Search and For You sections of Photos.
To do this, go to Settings – Photo and move the toggle switch “Display selections to an inactive position.”
Now the iPhone will stop collecting and showing collections of photos and videos. You can create new folders in “Photos” yourself and sort media into them.
3. Returning to the old format of appearance on the lock screen
If you miss the old lock screen appearance design, there is a way out. It is possible to set their appearance to full screen at the top, and not on the surface, as the default return of the authors from Cupertino.
For this health Settings – Notifications – Display as. In this menu, you see three options:
“Counter” – setting the display in the counter view at the bottom of the screen.
“Stack” – setting the display in a stack at the bottom of the screen
“List” – full screen display console
To return to the previous random style, select the List option.
Otherwise, iOS 16 is great. We’ve already explained why:
▪️ 75 new features in iOS 16. All the innovations and changes
▪️ 16 new iOS 16 features to try after installation
