Apple released the iOS 15.1 with new features for a range of iPhones starting from the latest iPhone 13 to iPhone SE.
Apple released the new iOS 15.1 today with some additional features. One of the most prominent features of this OS is SharePlay that allows uses to share experiences with others over FaceTime. The new FaceTime also allows users to stream television episodes, movies, and listen to streaming music while connected with friends.
Not all streaming service providers are compatible with this new feature. The ones which are compatible include Disney+, ESPN+, HBO Max, Hulu, MasterClass, Paramount+, Pluto TV, TikTok, and Twitch.
With SharePlay every user has controls to pause, play, rewind, and fast forward the shared content. This feature also adjusts volume with Smart Volume when other members start a conversation while streaming the shared content. According to the changelog, this SharePlay is “an entirely new way to have shared experiences with family and friends in FaceTime.”
