today I'm going to show you the five
0:02
awesome new features coming to messages
0:07
18 let's start with number one above the
0:10
keyboard you'll see a new button to the
0:12
right for text formatting tap and drag
0:15
to select the text and then on the
0:16
options on the top you can apply bold
0:18
italicize underline or striketh through
0:21
formatting options below you'll see
0:23
various animated text effects these can
0:26
be applied to the whole text message or
0:28
to a specific portion you can have
0:30
multiple effects apply to different
0:32
parts of the same message but
0:34
understandably you can't apply two
0:36
different effects to the same word a
0:39
word can't be both big and small that
0:42
would be silly number two an instant new
0:45
favorite feature of mine is the ability
0:47
to schedule text to be sent
0:49
automatically in the future if someone
0:52
asks you to remind them of something at
0:54
a future date and time but you yourself
0:57
struggle to remember such things well
0:59
you can schedule your text message to be
1:02
advance the great thing is that the
1:04
other person doesn't need to be running
1:06
iOS 18 you can start using this feature
1:08
right away if you update or install the
1:11
beta just hit the plus menu scroll down
1:13
and tap send later you can type in
1:16
whatever message you want adding in
1:17
links or images tap the schedule button
1:20
above the text box to set a date and
1:22
time messages can be scheduled up to a
1:25
week in advance and tap the send button
1:28
to schedule it to get back to text ing
1:30
in real time tap the X to close the send
1:32
later box and you can see all of your
1:34
scheduled messages by scrolling down
1:37
below the current conversation you can
1:39
tap edit for a few different options
1:42
send message we'll send the message
1:44
right away instead of at the schedule
1:46
time edit time will let you change the
1:49
time and date that the message is sent
1:51
and delete message will make sure the
1:52
message is never sent unlike deleting a
1:54
text after it's already been sent
1:56
deleting a scheduled message won't send
1:59
an alert to edit the contents of the
2:00
message itself tap and hold on the
2:02
bubble and tap edit again unlike editing
2:05
a message after it's been sent you can
2:07
edit a scheduled message an unlimited
2:09
number of times and the edit history
2:11
won't be shown number three if you want
2:13
to react to a text message but find the
2:16
Facebook style six options a little
2:19
limiting you can look forward to iOS 18
2:21
where you can now react using any Emoji
2:24
tap and hold on a message just like
2:26
before and you'll see the same six
2:28
options as before but now rendered in
2:29
full color you'll swipe over to see some
2:32
of the more popular Emoji or you can tap
2:34
the emoji button to bring up the full
2:37
list instead of the basic haha like it's
2:41
2005 you can react using the skull emoji
2:44
or if you want to confuse someone you
2:46
can react with man in business suit
2:48
levitating or aerial Tramway number four
2:53
every iPhone owner has a few people in
2:55
their lives with an Android phone no
2:58
judgment it can happen to anybody
3:00
sometimes people just don't make very
3:02
good life choices but then you go to
3:04
text them a video of your cat or your
3:06
human child and for some reason it sends
3:10
with the resolution of a postage stamp
3:12
now in iOS 18 if you're texting somebody
3:14
on a supported Android device SMS
3:17
messages will be upgraded to RCS or Rich
3:20
communication services that means that
3:23
photos and videos will be sent in much
3:24
higher quality than before you can even
3:27
send audio messages or files too you'll
3:29
get read receipts and typing indicators
3:31
if you have those enabled you can even
3:34
send emoji tapbacks just like an
3:36
iMessage using any Emoji RCS messages
3:39
still appear as green bubbles not blue
3:41
bubbles that's because there are still a
3:43
few features exclusive to iMessage only
3:47
iMessage is securely end to end
3:49
encrypted supports inline replies and
3:51
threading named group conversations and
3:54
iMessage apps number five if you ever
3:56
get lost in a spot with no cell signal
3:59
like if you're hundreds of miles out in
4:01
the GOI desert or in New York you can
4:04
now send full text messages over
4:06
satellite satellite connectivity will
4:08
work anywhere you can see the sky this
4:11
feature is available for the iPhone 14
4:13
and newer which first introduced
4:15
satellite connectivity previously you've
4:17
been able to send limited messages and
4:20
contact emergency services but now you
4:22
have full access to messages with emoji
4:26
and tapbacks and everything well not
4:29
quite everything you still can't send
4:31
photos or videos because of the limited
4:33
bandwidth while it's currently free for
4:35
iPhone 14 and 15 owners Apple has
4:38
indicated it will be part of a paid
4:40
service going forwards Apple hasn't
4:43
elaborated on what features will be free
4:45
and what will be paid or what the
4:47
pricing will be or how billing will work
4:49
when you're abandoned in the middle of a
4:51
desert but speculation is that emergency
4:54
messages will continue to be free while
4:57
full messages access will be a paid
4:59
feature with a limited free trial for
5:02
