The Apple company will continue betting on music through the integration of its streaming service in its mobile devices, although the company announced that it will stop manufacturing its iPod player models.

In a statement, the company explained that the development and demand for Apple Music streaming music services and devices such as iPhone or Apple Watch displaced the device in the market.

As you may recall, for many years the iPod was one of the main products in the Cupertino company’s inventory. However, they pointed out that the iPod touch model can be purchased until the market runs out of stock.

In October 2021, the first iPod was launched on the market, and it was the first MP3 player with a capacity for a thousand songs and an autonomy of ten hours. Today, Apple Music allows access to more than 90 million songs and more than 30,000 playlists.

At the time, the iPod revolutionized the music industry and impacted millions of people. According to Greg Joswiak, Apple’s senior vice president of worldwide marketing, this device has redefined the way music is discovered, listened to, and shared.

The fifteenth version of the iOS operating system developed by Apple for its iPhone series was launched on September 20.

The iOS 15 update is available for models 6 and up and came loaded with very interesting news presented below:

Portraid Mode in FaceTime

This peculiar function will be very useful in teleconferences because from a “Wide Spectrum” system, using artificial intelligence, the voice can be isolated and improved during calls. It will also make the background of photos more diffuse, making selfies stand out.

Focus mode

It is a new way to personalize the iPhone because it allows you to change icons, widgets, wallpapers. In addition, the “do not disturb” mode allows you to configure different scenarios and each one with its respective notification permissions, which can also be activated and configured automatically.

Share health data

With this software it is possible to share different health indicators, such as heart rate, number of calories lost, stability when walking, hours of sleep and food. All information can be linked to the Apple Watch.

Private Relay

It is like a VPN integrated into the operating system and although it is still in beta phase, it can be used just by downloading the software, without access to information on exclusive pages for each country.

Camera for texts

It is called “Live Text” and consists of using the camera to read texts, it works in different languages, allowing translations to be made and after scanning them, it can be shared in any way.

3D Apple Maps

Some cities and locations will be better represented in 3D on Apple Maps such as New York City or London and will also have “immersive directions” to facilitate the journey.

Optimized Safari

Apple’s search engine will adopt extensions on phones, which will allow plugins to be installed on mobile phones. It will also allow to group the tabs into groups and restore the page through scrolling up and down.

Privacy and permissions

The new update will provide the option to monitor the permissions granted and when detecting that they use the photos or the location of the person without need, the operating system will send a notification and the app can be removed and reported in the App Store.

Improved emojis

Apple emojis will be more inclusive, they will come with different accessibility options and a variety of skin colors. On the other hand, they can be personalized with various expressions and other details.

Entertainment

Through a FaceTime call you can use SharePlay, with which you will have access to watch movies, videos and listen to songs with the person you are talking to. This function is in full development, but the company promises to have it operational in the coming months.

The new Aplple Watch smartwatch, which will be launched in 2022, will include sensors to measure body temperature. In addition, the company is working on the inclusion of a device that will allow the calculation of blood sugar levels in the future.

Different sources highlight that the technology company had planned to incorporate a temperature sensor into the 2021 model, although currently the company’s plans are focused on launching a new model with temperature sensors by 2022.

The company has been working for years on sensors that allow measuring blood glucose levels through the skin, trying to design a minimally invasive system that will be aimed primarily at those who suffer from diabetes, although there is still no precision of when would go on the market.

Meanwhile, some unofficial information indicates that Samsung already has an optical sensor incorporated in its next smartwatch model that will allow measuring glucose levels without punctures or pain.

New features

For this year, Apple plans the Apple Watch Series 7 line. For these models the company carried out tests with thinner screen edges and closer to the front developed with a new lamination technique.

These devices will include faster processors, excellent wireless connectivity and a new display. The watch could be a somewhat thicker overall size, but almost imperceptible to users.
