Hello Simon, I share your sentiment especially regarding the new Focus feature. Then again, we must always remember that many of these features are based on the needs of young, rich, highly active San Francisco Bay area based users.
This is just my opinion but I would put money on the demographic I describe. As I think back over the years at some of the photos they display regarding their staff, during the presentation, it leaves little doubt about which demographic gets the most attention and it ain’t low-paid blue-collar wage earners (smile). Just my opinion, nothing more (smile).

Some of these new to come features sound pretty far out there, To the point I think, as cool as that feature sounds, Why do we need it, Or more to the point, do we need it? Are we starting to get lazy It’s almost like the IOS 15 OS will do everything for me except make my coffee in the morning, and sleep for me at night. Or should that be the other way around, Don’t get me wrong, This stuff sounds very very cool and helpful, But really, do I need to know when I’m going to fall over? But we in New Zealand wont get the benefit of a lot of these features because our systems aren’t up to stratch Like my medical test requests / results, I don’t believe we have the inferstructure in our medical systems to get this without jumping through rings of fire! But still. Lets see where this goes once the os is actually updated.

The one thing I’m actually looking forward to is the SharePlay feature. Especially since a lot of the big streaming services appear to be onboard. Not that my sighted wife or family/friends for that matter would ever say anything or complain, but hopefully with SharePlay, it’ll be a lot more convenient to watch and enjoy something with others for those of us who need or want the audio described track by simply slipping on a pare of headphones. It’s been something I’ve always written to Apple Accessibility and feedback about with every major iOS release since I don’t know when.

I guess the good old days are over when the Viphone list had 200 messages on a day when Apple delivered a keynote. -- The following information is important for all members of the V iPhone list.
