In the iOS 15 update, Apple redesigned notifications. From now on, Notification will display contact photos in large icons for applications to make them easier to identify.
Notification summary basically will let you bundle up non-essential notifications from apps that you don’t care about and have them delivered at a particular time of the day in a beautiful widget not to distract you in the meantime.
Revamped Notification Centre - iOS 15 Features
The Notifications refurbishes in iOS 15, where you can add photos in contact and larger icons in applications. In addition, the notification summary will collect the notifications together for delivery according to your time and arrange all the messages like a priority to reduce notifications. That is one awesome feature that makes it very easy to get notifications from critical applications and eliminate the risks.

Revamped Notification Centre
Another best thing about this is its novelty feature “Do Not Disturb” feature. This feature is now called Focus, where you can select what apps are allowed to send in your notification or which contact can bother you to message and call.
Focus mode will tell all the apps that you have all the notifications silenced as a heads-up and enable them to override your DND request if they have something significant to say to you. Here, you can automate these focus states to turn on and off at the selected time of the day, just like “Do Not Disturb”.
Focus is a new feature that allows users to filter notifications and apps based on their wish to concentrate. Customers can customise their smartphone to help them be more present in the moment by setting a custom Focus or picking a suggested Focus, which leverages on-device intelligence to advise which people and apps should be notified.
A suggestion of Focus depends on users’ context, suppose during their work time or at the time of rolling down to bed. When the Focus is set on an Apple device, it will automatically apply to all other Apple devices.
Moreover, Users can construct Home Screen pages with applications and widgets that only display relevant apps and prevent temptation by applying them to moments of focus.
Apple has been regularly promoting WWDC2021 using their popular Memoji, and with that, they brought improvements to the various iPhone devices with iOS 15. A new customisation option is also available in Memoji in a recent update, says Apple. These new customisation options in Memoji will give the users an outstanding advantage to design and customise their Memoji according to their choice of looks and appearance. This message will be available for iMessage.
New Memoji
At the time of the keynote speech, Apple announced that iOS 15 would come with 40 new outfits, headwear, accessibility options and glasses. Here, users will be able to mix and match the color of clothes according to their choice so they can style their Memoji in any funky or classy type freely.

The coolest thing right here is sending a bundle of messages; they now appear as a collage that you can swipe through very quickly, and it’s so much neater, occupies less room, and you can get a glanceable collage view by clicking on the five photos there.
Now you can open up the photos in the form of a grid view just by tapping on it.
Shared With You is a critical option in this. This makes the user experience much better and makes it easy to handle.
Here, users will be assembled to pin a notable content search and access a detailed view of the conversation.
Because of the Shared With You feature, Messages will also get some region-wise improvements in iOS 15, as in SMS filtration for unwanted messages. In the time, this is going to be introduced in Brazil and notification options in China and India. Shared With You, the notification option will allow users to turn off the notifications for the messages of their choice. In addition, it’s now possible to search for photographs sent via Messages using a contact’s name.
When you’re on a video call, your mic is picking up a cacophony in sound. So, in voice isolation, machine learning distinguishes this sound, blocks down the ambient voice, and prioritizes your voice.
Sometimes, you might want every bit of sound to come through. Thus, at that time, you can switch to Wide Spectrum. In Wide Spectrum, your mic picks up an entire symphony’s worth of sound, your voice and everything around you.
If you wish to see every person’s face in the room on a video call, you can now turn on the grid view giving another way to view facetime calls and make your facetime video capture more beautiful than ever.
