Apple’s latest software update, iOS 14.5, brings a new feature called “Silence Unknown Callers.” This tool automatically routes calls from unknown numbers directly to voicemail, saving iPhone users from unwanted interruptions. The update also includes the ability to require a passcode for App Store and App Store purchases, adding an extra layer of security for users.
Another useful addition to the iOS 14.5 update is the ability to search for saved passwords across all apps. Users can now easily locate their passwords by using the built-in Passwords feature in the Settings app. This feature not only saves time but also helps users remember their numerous and complex passwords. Additionally, the update introduces support for PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X controllers, allowing gamers to enjoy their favorite titles on their iPhones and iPads.
Furthermore, iOS 14.5 includes several accessibility improvements, such as the ability to recognize and describe objects in live photos and videos using Siri. This feature, called “Vision Recognition,” can be particularly helpful for individuals with visual impairments. The update also introduces AirTag, Apple’s new item tracking device, which can be attached to keys, wallets, or other valuable items and located using the Find My app.
