Thanks for great detailed walk through videos!

Highlights not working on my 14 pro max ios 18

[WBTat]

Recording phone calls I have been doing for a while and it’s actually a inhouse option that doesn’t notify the other person. If you put your phone on speaker and hit screen record you can actually have their contact info on display while having a recording.

[geolykos]

Now that we finally have all these features I want suggestions on what to do with all these!

[pauldreeves]

Suggestion for a video that I'd find super useful - how do you keep your shortcuts organised, and how do you plan them generally? Do you keep notes else where including 'progress' and 'status'? I find after 50 or so shortcuts I just get lost and loose interest in working on them.

[TrailBikeMike]

Toggle in shortcuts? This might just be the best new feature in iOS18! The complicated workaround always had a slight delay in responding.

Great video as always, keep up the great work.

[heatherprauto]

Hope the existing Schlage Encode plus lock has the ultra wide band mode software update for the home key!

Thanks again for awesome detailed videos so we can really utilize our phones capabilities

[hojayevmekan]

I do not have a call recorder, iOS 18. Should I wait for iOS 18.1?

[minncognito]

Thanks for another awesome video! One of the main reasons I wanted to get a new phone is to fully understand its capabilities and leverage them fully. Your videos make that possible in the best way!

Awesome wallpaper in this video as well!

[basmatiDR]

The iPhone mirror function has to be up there for the best new function - got it sat on Mac desktop neatly lined up next to other widgets.

[Oleg__]

In the next iOS updates, I hope to see a feature to show the remaining time until the alarm goes off.

[Seandjsullivan]

Hey man, great video, quick question tho, where did you get that wallpaper from?

[subrahmanyamgantasala]

How to downgrade from ios 18.1 beta to ios 18 stable version?

[SnoopBok]

Biggest camera update (I think you didn't mention): be able to pause video while recording.
I switched to iPhone from Android 2 years ago (after 12 years of Android). I always wondered why we couldn't pause videos while recording 😮

[PixZTech]

Cool “let Tim Cook” t-shirt 😂
but the “buy your mum an iPhone” hits different 🔥😂

[jaclynfleishmanades]

How to remove time stamp on calendar events? Some of mine have them and some don’t.

[Alfredo_Laureta]

Can we add the option of location on/off to control center?

[thirsch]

Hey, do you have a video specific to vocal shortcuts? I’ve created a few, however, looking for more ideas. When I want to send my husband a text, I start with hey Siri and I tell her what I want to say to him, tried setting up a vocal shortcut, but it only opens the messaging app. It doesn’t record what I wanna say like it does when I first say hey Siri

[baldfvi]

I was/am on the developer mode, I didn't get the official update since the build # I have is 22A3354 right? Do I turn now off the Beta updates and go ahead and perform my first official iOS backup as a regular/normal iOS user?

[User]

What is that icon in the top left? The one with the two people in it? It also appears just above the 'switch camera' button.
