      Yes! Sharing of AirTags!

      Finally I won’t get notified a million times that there’s an AirTag in my partner’s bag.

      It’s amazing in 17! Noticed first time typing. Especially on the iPad I make substantially less mistakes. It’s a smack in the face change.

    Better voice to text. I’ve been acting like a boomer a lot more recently by dictating things into text fields and judging from the accuracy of the LLM models like whisper, I could seriously see myself using voice to text for everything that doesn’t need to be spelled out.

        Hey , my bad. The pwa improvement are coming to macOS safari and not the mobile safari. I thought there were improvements on mobile safari too but nope.

    The first couple betas had super speedy spotlight searching. This current beta has a basically broken spotlight. I’m hoping by the time 17 is released that spotlight is super speedy again. It’s been really slow for me on 16

    I really look forward to the profile in Safari (both in macOS and iOS). If it’s working properly in Sonoma, I won’t be needing multiple accounts on my Macs to separate my work and porn addiction.

      I’m still not 100% sure how this works, but I’m excited for it with my wife in long car rides.

      I assume this only works with Apple Music, right? Been considering switching from Spotify for a few months now, but so far there’s not really anything that would justify the switch.

        Unfortunately yes—anyone in your car can scan a QR code and help add to your queue, but it only shows up when using Apple Music

    I never answer my phone so having voicemails automatically type out will be a great addition for me!

    Wife will be happy. Mother will be happy.

    The battery life. I heard it was miles better than 16. Also, allegedly, keyboard autocorrect was fixed. Allegedly.

    Another stolen Android feature that they’ll claim to have come up with themselves! Those are the best

      Android fan here, currently using an iPhone.

      You’re not entirely wrong, but you’re missing half the equation. You see, the implementations here actually work fairly decently and feel nice to use. Still took them way too long, and they’re still getting too much credit. But the entire experience is more polished.

      That either matters to you or it doesn’t. It didn’t used to for me, so I used Android for years since it’s significantly more customizable and capable.

      Now I have multiple computing devices and need my phone to fulfill a more general role, and I’d like that to be an enjoyable experience. So I’m on iPhone again.
