System: iOS 18.1 released, new Apple Intelligence and call recording features


iOS 18.1 brings the first batch of Apple Intelligence features for iPhone 15 Pro models and iPhone 16 series. It may take some time for Apple to launch the full version of Apple Intelligence features, but a few features are now available, including smart replies, smart summaries, and writing tools that proofread, summarize, and rewrite text throughout the operating system.

Another highlight of iOS 18.1 is support for call recording. Clicking the recording button in the upper left corner after making a call will start recording and notify all participants that the call is being recorded. The call will be saved to the Notes app, and the Notes app can also generate transcriptions.

In terms of imaging, iOS 18.1 supports the space photo shooting function of iPhone 15 Pro and iPhone 15 Pro Max, and joins the existing space video shooting function in the new space camera mode. The space photo function was previously exclusive to the iPhone 16 series, and now it has also been pushed to the iPhone 15 series. The new system's control center has added connection controls for satellites and AirDrop, allowing these buttons to be added to the control center separately. Previously, Apple also added new Measure and Level controls to the Control Center.

In addition, the new system has also launched updates to hardware and software such as Apple Music, AirPods Pro 2 Headphones, Wallet App, and has also fixed some bugs in previous versions. In terms of provincial funds, iOS 18.1 will be available for iPhone models that support iOS 18. Including all iPhones from iPhone XS and iPhone XR to the current iPhone 16 version, as well as the second-generation iPhone SE and above.

AI function: Apple Intelligence is online


Apple Intelligence currently only supports American English, a limitation that has disappointed some users. However, Apple plans to expand this feature to other English-speaking regions soon. According to the latest iOS 18.2 beta information, Apple Intelligence's support will be expanded to Australia, Canada, Ireland, New Zealand, South Africa and the United Kingdom in December, providing a localized English version that conforms to local voice and expression habits.

For users in non-English-speaking countries, Apple Intelligence support is not far away. According to the notes attached to Apple's press release, Apple plans to add support for more languages ​​in the software update released in April 2025. At that time, users of multiple languages ​​including Chinese, Indian English, Singaporean English, French, German, Italian, Japanese, Korean, Portuguese, Spanish, Vietnamese, etc. will be able to experience the new AI features brought by Apple Smart. Apple said that it will continue to expand the supported languages ​​in the future to further meet the needs of global users.

The launch of Apple Smart has brought many new features to users, but not all Apple devices can enjoy this upgrade. Specifically, only Mac devices equipped with Apple Silicon chips are supported, and other Mac models equipped with Intel chips cannot use Apple Smart. In addition, among iPad devices, only models equipped with M1 and above chips, and iPad mini equipped with A17 Pro chips have this feature support. In terms of iPhone, Apple Smart is currently limited to iPhone 15 Pro, iPhone 16 and iPhone 16 Pro series, highlighting Apple's exclusive optimization for high-end models.

Policy: Apple abandons cars to protect AI


It is shocking that Apple stopped making cars. On the one hand, Apple cars were once highly expected, and Apple electric cars were once considered Tesla's strongest competitor. On the other hand, Apple has also invested huge amounts of money in the car-making project.

Although Apple has not mentioned the hard work of making cars, according to Bloomberg, Apple has invested more than $1 billion in car research and development every year in the past decade. In total, in 10 years, the Apple car project has become a billion-dollar project. But Apple's road to making cars is not smooth, as can be seen from the frequent personnel changes. Apple's car project has been dowed again and again, greatly reducing the input-output ratio of the product.

At the same time, the iteration of the electric vehicle market is getting faster and faster. Whether at home or abroad, the profit margins of car companies' new energy vehicle business have been sharply compressed. In addition, Apple's sales have been fatigued after the epidemic, and Apple's revenue has declined for four consecutive quarters in fiscal year 2023. Under the "external and internal troubles", Apple's stopping car manufacturing is a timely choice to stop losses.

We believe that iPhone 16 will no longer be complained about sooner or later. Because of the influence of new systems, functions and policies, iPhone 16 will get better and better.
