Top iOS 12 Features

**Exploring WWDC 2019: A Fun Journey with Justine**

Hey guys! It’s Justine here, and I just wanted to say how much fun I had at WWDC this year. Not only did I enjoy the event itself, but meeting so many of you guys made it even more special. If you haven’t checked out my previous videos, I posted several from WWDC, including one where my sister followed me around, making it feel like you were there with me! I visited two Apple Stores in Cupertino—the One Infinite Loop store and the visitors center—where I picked up some cool products.

One of the standout items was this beautiful leather iPhone case. It’s a salmon color, which is my favorite shade, and I couldn’t resist getting one for myself. But here’s the catch—it was displayed right next to an electric blue case, which happened to be Jenna’s favorite color. So, in a gesture of love, I got us matching cases! To top it off, I also picked up matching Apple Watch bands as a thoughtful gift for Jenna, who had been filming me all day.

While at the Apple Store, I stumbled upon the new Apple Watch band I purchased. It’s stunning, and I’m already planning to get my nails painted in the same salmon shade. Speaking of which, I think I’ll go ahead and do that—why not?

**Discovering iOS 12: A Stable and Exciting Update**

I also installed the iOS 12 beta, and wow, it’s been a game-changer so far. Usually, the first iteration of a new iOS can be quite unstable, but this one has been nothing short of impressive. One feature that’s already made my life easier is group notifications. For instance, when Jenna texts me multiple times, I can now see all her messages in one consolidated view by clicking on the three dots next to her name. It’s incredibly convenient!

The new Memoji and Animoji features are pure joy! Creating these has been so much fun. My latest creations include a tiger, koala bear, and even a T-Rex—though Jenna still hasn’t forgiven me for bringing up *Jurassic World* with the park long gone. The tongue detection feature in Animojis is another highlight; it’s hilarious because, let’s be honest, we’ve all stuck our tongues out without any reaction before. Now, it’s finally getting the recognition it deserves!

**The Camera App and New Features**

I also noticed some changes to the camera app. Previously, clicking on it would take me directly to my photo library, but now I have to manually tap a small icon for that. While it’s a minor inconvenience, it’s not too bad overall. One of my favorite new features is the improved stability and speed in iOS 12. The camera swipe is up to 75% faster, and the keyboard display is 50% quicker. App launches are also twice as fast under heavy workloads, which is great for multitasking.

Another feature I’m excited about is FaceTime, which now supports up to 32 participants. Although I don’t have 32 friends with iOS 12 installed yet, it’s something we’ll definitely explore in the future. The updated Photos app is another gem, offering better search suggestions and categorization. Did you know you can search for specific types of photos like selfies or bursts? I discovered I have over 1500 pictures of dogs on my iPhone—clearly, I’m a dog lover at heart!

**Screen Time: A Reality Check**

Speaking of which, I’ve been using the Screen Time feature to track my phone usage. It’s eye-opening! Today alone, I spent five hours and 44 minutes on my device. Breaking it down, I was in messages for an hour and 19 minutes, social networking for 35 minutes, and on Twitter for 29 minutes. The rest of the time was spread across other apps. It’s a bit scary to see how much time I spend glued to my phone, especially when you factor in all the pickups—277 times today alone! I even took a nap from 5 PM to 6 PM, which explains the lull in activity.

**Shortcuts and Siri: Enhancing Productivity**

I’m also excited about Siri shortcuts. With this feature, I can automate tasks like sending texts or adjusting my home settings. For example, if I tell Siri I’m on my way home, it can text my sister, turn on the lights, and adjust the thermostat—all hands-free! While I haven’t had much time to explore this yet, I’m sure it’s going to be a game-changer once I dive deeper into it.

**Looking Ahead: More Features and Fun**

I didn’t get a chance to try out the watchOS 5 beta since I forgot my Apple Watch during yoga today. But I’m excited about the new gym kit features, like tracking yoga and hiking activities. The walkie-talkie feature on the Apple Watch is also something I can’t wait to try—it’s going to be so much fun!

In conclusion, iOS 12 has a lot to offer, from stability improvements to fun new features like Memoji and Animoji. If you haven’t installed it yet, I highly recommend giving it a shot. Just remember that beta software might not be for everyone, but if you have an Apple Developer account, you can download the profile needed to install beta versions.

Thank you all for watching, and I’ll see you in my next video!

"WEBVTTKind: captionsLanguage: en- Hey guys, it'sJustine and oh my goodnessI had so much fun at WWDC and not onlydid I have a reallygreat time at the eventbut I had a lot of funmeeting so many of you

the emojiand I also posted another video,it was just a vlog of mysister kind of following meround WWDC so it waskind of like you guys were there with me.At the Apple store I boughtthis leather iPhone case.It's beautiful, it's kindof like a salmon color.I've never had a leatheriphone case before,this is my first one.So I kind of had togive in cause this casewas right next to an electric blue colorwhich was my sisters favorite color.And the salmon is my favorite color,so I got us matching cases and I got usApple watch bands to match.It was kind of like my gift for sayingJenna, thank you forfilming for me all day.Let's take a look and see --Oh wow, this looks really good.I think I'm gonna have to getmy nails painted that color.I'll think about it, I thought about it.I'll do it.I also got this Applewatch band, it's very nice.But watch oS 5, really,really excited about it.The walkie talkie featureis going to be so fun.I'm probably gonna annoythe heck out of my sister.Any probably annoy anyother friends that give meaccess to be able to walkietalkie them on my watch.So I install the iOs 12 betaand I am loving it so far.It's crazy how stableit is cause usually likethe first iteration of aniOs is not very stable.So far its been awesome.One of the things that has alreadymade my life so much betteris group notifications.So as you an see here my sisterjust texted me several times.Okay, well it needs to be unlocked.That is my face.So when you press andclick into it you can seethe messages that you received.Hey Justine, helloWhat do you think we'llget for dinner tomorrow?Spageht?(laughs)We're obsessed with spaghetti.So when you click on those three dotsthis will bring up this little tab hereThis will let you adjust yournotifications accordingly.Deliver quietly, turn it off,or you can go in to get more settings.So a lot of the complaints and issuesthat we all had in iOs 7,a lot of those are nowofficially being resolvedin iOs 12.Of course again, this is still in betaso it won't be out untilthe fall for everyone.Obviously ne of thehighlights is the Memoji.It's so silly but they're so much fun.Maybe soup, Jenna isstill sending me messageseven though I told herI was making a video.So I made this Memoji a little bit ago,my other one that I madeat WWDC had curly hairbut now I'm back to mystraight hair again.Hey Jenna how's it going, I love spaghettiI also love souuuup, souuuup.I'll be like licking thesoup out of the bowl.Cause now there's tongue detection.That was one of the funniest thingswhenever they announced thefeature of tongue detection.It sounds really, really sillybut I'll tell you what,you guys are not gonna tell methat there has not been many many timesthat you have used Animojisand you've stuck yourtongue out and nothing has happened.So it kind of only isa natural progression.So I approve of it.So there's a few newAnimojis, we have the tiger.Hello, I'm a Tiger.Then there's the Koala Bear.Look how cute!Oh I love the Koala, Ithink Jenna will like this.Hey Jenna, I'm a Koala!Oh my God, the Koala has a tongue too.This is so weird.T-Rex,um, hey Jennawhen are we gonna go see Jurrasic World.Did you know that the park is gone?Boo, spooky!I'm gonna be so annoying.No friends will be safe in iOs 12.One of the things thathas already slightlybeen driving me crazyis usually when youclick on the camera app,it'll give you the option togo into your camera library.But instead you have to clickon the little photo icon right thereand that'll bring upyour photos, so it's finebut not an ideal situation.So here isI showed you guys this in the other videoI did about the Memoji butI'm gonna show you guys again.This is my Ani-- Wow, whydoes my head look so big?This is so silly, okaylet's take a picture.Okay how do I look?Oh, I look just, basic.Oh I'm making a video, oops!Okay, I'm making a video.This is me, this is still all new to mebecause I just, Okay well, woops!Oh my God, this is me withoutthe Animoji on my head, oh my God.I don't wanna see it, I don'twanna see it, I'm embarrassed.So you can add things.Let's see, what's this?Oh look at that, and it's greatbecause you can justlike pin them places too,so it's kind of like Snapchat.I'll pin that there, Wow!It's pretty accurate.Let's put an arrow,this is one of my favoritestickers, it's so stupid.It's called Poop Troop.They're just, they'relittle pooping stickers.I don't know, I have a problem.But of course if you don'thave the iJustine stickers.Look at that, there's me!I'm sticking myself all over the place.Of course there's a poop, a coffee.Well I guess I'll takea picture of myself now.What have I done?So here is my screen time,this is out of five hours and 44 minutes.Wait a minute, no, that'show much I've used my phone.I thought that was justout of the past five hours.That's how much I've used my phone.So I've been in messagesfor an hour and 19 minutes.I've been socialnetworking for 35 minutes.I've been on Twitter for 29 minutes,and other for an hour and 54 minutes.So let's go and look in here.Messages, social networking,what is the productivity?Oh, the Insta360 One, I'mdoing a video on that.I've picked up my phone 12 times per hour.277 pickups, if you guys can see herethere's a little rightthere, I took a nap.So that's why there's no activity.So here's the notification,there's around 14 per hour.208 messages, youtube tips, interesting.There is all very interesting.Yeah, that's when I took my nap,from five to six.That's why there was no activity.I installed this around noon today.So after a week I wouldlove to give you guysan update just to see whatmy usage is actually like.Today was kind of like a weird day,I've been shooting a lotof videos, and kind ofrunning around doing a lot of stuffso I haven't really been on my phoneas much as I normally think I would.So that's definitely somethingthat's going to be terrifying to seehow much time you really arespending on your devices.So another huge iOs 12 updateis stability and speed.Says its up to 75% faster camera swipe,50% faster keyboard displayand up to 2x faster applaunch under heavy workload.You can also FaceTime up to 32 peoplewhich I don't think that I have 32 peoplethat have iOs 12 beta installedso we're gonna have totry that another time.They've also updated photosso there is supposedly likea better search suggestionI really only search myphotos, for photos of dogsso if you guys didn't knowthat you could do that,you can.Find me photos of dogs.There are 1500 pictures ofdogs on my iPhone right now.So what's great is you can searchby selfies, bursts, live photos or videos.So as you can see there's1544 photos of Dogs.Oh look, there's categories!There's dogs, hot dogsand coach dogs?What does that mean?Okay this actually haspictures of hot dogs,this is from a super old video.Why is this even on my phone?This is from July 4, 2015.Oh this is May 2, 2015.That's not a hot dog thoseare actually fried Oreos.But hey, nice

There's Hawaii pictures.What about Pittsburgh, oh my goodness.Wow, some of these picturesare like really old.This is crazy.Did I ever tell you guys I filmed a movie?Well, here's a spoiler alert.Here's me in the movie, wefilmed it December 20, 2017.It's gonna be a cool movie,I'm very excited about it.Here's some old technologythat I was using in the movie.So Siri shortcuts is alsosomething that I'm really interested in.So you can make specificrecipes for thingsthat you wanna do.So if I tell Siri,hey, I'm on my way home,I can see up a shortcut totext my sister, have my lights turned on,change the temperature.Really whatever you canget your phone to do,You can have Siri do that for you.I haven't really had a chanceto mess with shortcuts yetso I can't really speak too much on it.But as I play with i0s12 a little bit more,I'm sure I will talk moreabout that in a future video.Let me know what you guys think of iOs 12.Have you installed it yet?I feel like so many ofyou guys keep askinghow you get access to thesebetas to download on your phoneIf you have an Apple developeraccount you can downloaddifferent profiles on your phoneso that allows you todownload beta software.So it's not something that iseasily accessible for everyone.I don't have the watch oS 5 beta installedbut I did go to yoga todayand I even forgot my watch.So I was like even if I wanted to track itI wouldn't have even been able to.I'm excited about all ofthe new gym kit features.You can track yoga, hiking,but mostly, man, walkietalkie is gonna be fun.Well thank you guys for watching,I'll see you in my next video, bye bye!\n"
