  1. In Music, they need to change the wording from “Play Last” to “Add to queue” like they have it in Podcasts now. It makes more sense to say it that way.
    Also, no “display” for 13’s and older. I don’t understand why the displays can’t stay on all the time while plugged in on the older models, would it cause some kind of screen burn in?

  2. My favourite feature is the unreliable alarm that spontaneously doesn't ring to kindly allow me to have an unscheduled lie in in the morning. Apple are exceptionally kind to include this glorious feature. As for the rest of the updates, well, they aren't functions that I am going to use although the proximity sensor detecting that a phone is in my pocket and not spontaneously taking pictures of darkness is useful, but not a feature that I'm really going to notice (in a good way hopefully). As for the iMessage tip, no, I also didn't know about that. The trouble with the Mac OS and iOS is that there are so many features, many obscure, that it has become difficult to keep up with everything. That isn't a complaint, just an observation. The photo tip is nevertheless, something that I am likely to use from now on. So thank you for that.

  3. Great info! I’m glad they brought back the custom ring-tones. I had a snippet of song identifying each family member—I knew who was calling me by the song that played. I also had a song identifying work so I could decide whether to answer. It’s all back!
