In the latest version of iOS, Apple has invested more in features compared to cosmetic changes. With that, Safari now offers a simpler method of navigation, and we have a better way to handle distractions via Focus Mode, while FaceTime now allows broader access for those who do not own an Apple device.

Check out our complete iOS 15 guide to learn what are the features one can expect to see in the next version of Apple's mobile operating system.
