New Delhi: APPLE has announced iOS 15, a major update with powerful features that will take the iPhone experience to a new level this fall.
FaceTime calls will now extend beyond Apple devices, so anyone can join a call from their web browser on Android and Windows devices.
The tech giant also introduced 'SharePlay' that will help users focus and be in the moment with new ways to manage notifications and quickly access information.
"iOS 15 helps users stay connected while sharing experiences in real time, gives them new tools to help reduce distraction and find focus, uses intelligence to enhance the photos experience, and, with huge upgrades to Maps, brings new ways to explore the world," said Craig Federighi, Apple's senior vice president of Software Engineering.

"Inspired by the stunning portrait photos taken on iPhone, Portrait mode is now available for FaceTime and designed specifically for video calls, so users can blur their background and put themselves in focus," Apple announced during its WWDC21 conference on Monday.
Users can now share experiences with SharePlay while connecting with friends on FaceTime, including listening to songs together with Apple Music, watching a TV show or movie in sync, or sharing their screen to view apps together.
