Hello, this is Techmong. I was quite surprised after watching the content of WWDC announced by Apple earlier. It was the most satisfying presentation among all the Apple Worldwide Developers Conferences I have seen so far. However, contrary to my thoughts, after this WWDC presentation, Apple's stock price dropped like this, and its market capitalization fell from 2nd place to 3rd place behind Nvidia. Also, looking at the general public's reactions, people are saying things like, They're updating things that have been on Android for ages and calling it innovation. Japsu Hyeong will be furious. Some negative comments are saying, Apple will present like this, don't use the expression 'innovative'. However, I think differently. Apple prepared well, but maybe they didn't present it well, that's why this happened. If Apple really emphasizes the good parts they did and the fact that other devices can already do it, it would be a strong point.

The content needs to be simplified a bit, but it didn't happen, so let me explain why I think what Apple showed this time is innovative from the perspective of using Apple devices. First of all, the WWDC this time started with the updated content of Vision Pro. But let me tell you the conclusion first. Apple shouldn't have put this at the forefront. The update content of Vision Pro OS 2 that Apple mentioned this time was really at a basic level from my perspective as someone who really uses it for one or two hours every day. Because if you look at the updates of Meta Quest devices these days, they have become completely different devices to the extent that there are many things that are almost revolutionary. Many practical gestures have been added, a lot of fun games have been increased, and since users have already done the localization, Meta Quest 3 has really become an amazing device. But Vision Pro...

When I looked at the OS update contents, well, the only thing that caught my attention was that now you can see the Mac screen a bit bigger. Besides that, there wasn't much that stood out to me. So, many people probably felt a bit disappointed at the beginning of this WWDC. If I were Apple, I think they should have shown the wow factors that everyone, especially those who already use Apple devices, would appreciate first. For example, those who are wondering what I just mentioned are probably users of Galaxy or Android smartphones. Among iPhone users, those with a keen eye probably thought, Wow, what's that? when they saw what I just showed. I have already installed iOS 18 on my iPhone and iPad, and I've seen what's coming. So, from now on, I can show you features like Is this really happening now? to Wow, this is a real innovation. directly.

I'll show you. First, let me talk about some small changes. Those who use iPhones will all agree with this. When you open the iPhone phone app and press the list, the call goes directly to that person. So, for those who actually use iPhones, there are many cases where they accidentally make a call like this. But now, when you press the number, the call doesn't go through, it only goes through when you press the phone icon next to it. It has changed like this. Wow, I thought they would never update this, but finally, I thought they did. But there's something even more surprising. Now, you can officially use the call recording feature on the iPhone. It seems like they made a service called SKT ES, then KT and LG also tried to make similar features, but the development was a bit sluggish. Oh, but here.

There is a somewhat serious issue. Apple, in their recent announcement, mentioned that if one starts recording a call to avoid surprising the other party, a notification will be sent in advance to the other party. So, when I saw this, I thought, If the notification that recording has started is sent, wouldn't the other party be surprised instead? I wonder if it will actually allow this to be turned on in the settings, and whether it will be slightly different depending on the region of use. In the past, people might have just thought that Apple would simply display all notifications, but these days, Apple seems to try to fix things if people find them uncomfortable and keep complaining, such as not immediately making a call when tapping on the recent call list. So, if the iPhone in Korea officially supports call recording, when call recording is supported...

Let's start. When people start complaining about being annoyed by notifications, there is a slight expectation that Apple might fix these things a bit nowadays. Also, as I was looking at the updates on the iPhone this time, from the perspective of Galaxy users, there were quite a few things that are now available. For example, there are features like allowing more freedom in app placement to create gaps, or the ability to apply themes to change colors. If this WWDC is filled with these kinds of things, it would be quite disappointing. However, in this iOS update, I think there are three quite meaningful things: Control Center, App Lock, and Apple Wallet. Let's talk about the Control Center first. In the past, the Control Center used to just appear on one page. But now, the Control Center is divided into several pages.

The page has been divided, so at first, just looking at this, you might think, Oh, only the interface has changed a bit. But Apple has greatly upgraded the customization of the Control Center interface. In the past, with the Control Center, you would just swipe down from the top and it was all on one page. Now, you can swipe through page by page like this. Instead of having to swipe down every time to go to the 3rd page directly, which can be cumbersome, now, when you swipe down and keep swiping, it transitions smoothly downwards like this. They optimized the interface like this. For example, if I want to make the Auto-Rotate feature larger, I can press and hold the empty space here to move the position of Auto-Rotate to the side, and I can also adjust the size of this icon like this. This way, you can customize it to some extent as you want.

It's possible. Of course, since it's the beta version, it moves a bit roughly. When it goes into the official version, I think it will be much more convenient to use. Also, if you press Add Control here, you can see that there are many more control center items that you can add. In the past, the things you could add here in the control center were quite limited. But now, you can add a lot of native app functions here, of course. Apple has opened up the API for this new control center, so third-party apps can also be registered here. Wow, I think this can greatly expand the convenience of using the iPhone. And being able to customize a lot on the iPhone seems to be a trend in iOS these days. Originally, it wasn't like that, but now, even the power button is here when you go down.

It looks like this. Now, I will tell you about the second biggest change in iOS 18, which is the App Lock feature. On the iPhone, now, besides unlocking the initial screen with the original function, you can individually lock each app you want. The usage is really simple. If you want to lock an app, just long press on the app, then press here on Require Face ID. By doing this, you can set a separate lock function that forces Face ID verification when opening the app. So, if you try to open other apps, they will open immediately, but the one I just locked will require a separate verification when pressed. This is a very simple way to use it. Of course, after seeing this, you might think, Oh, on Galaxy or other phones, this has been available for a while. In Galaxy, there is no built-in feature to individually lock apps like this; you have to download a separate app.

The function of individually hiding apps can be done using security folder apps, but the current locking feature is different. To view hidden apps on Galaxy devices, you have to enter the security folder one by one, which is a bit complicated. On the other hand, the individual app hiding feature on iPhone is really intuitive, convenient, and nice. So, the third biggest change in iOS that I think of now is the feature of sending and receiving money using Apple Wallet. Just by bringing phones close to each other, you can immediately send money to the other person. Apple really makes it like an art as much as just one animation. Of course, how well we can use it conveniently in Korea where Apple Wallet does not work properly needs to be seen in practice. I remember in the past, Apple devices could exchange name cards through a feature called NameDrop, among people who use name cards, especially Apple users.

Using this name drop feature was a real function that only some people were good at while using the device. I think the feature of sending and receiving money can be used much more widely, it's a great technology. In that sense, Galaxy, Samsung Pay, well, Samsung originally has really good features. If this one also just allowed you to send and receive money by simply placing it, it would be really nice. Maybe it's because of security that they're not opening up such a feature. If I'm missing something, please let me know in the comments. Now, I'll switch to the iPad. Personally, I think the iPad OS update is really fun and great, more so than the iOS update. Of course, now even the iPad has similar features like iOS, why is this happening now, there are functions like that, and the Control Center is also customizable, so it may have improved in its own way. But if only this, I wouldn't be so excited like this.

No, it won't. The biggest change in this iPad is the significantly upgraded usability of the Apple Pencil. Now, you can use features that correct handwriting in real-time when you write by hand, adjusting the text with just one touch. It can even recognize your handwriting and convert the handwritten text directly into your own style. It was already impressive, but what's truly amazing starts now. Normally, when we write and want to insert something in the middle, what did we usually do? Until now, we selected the cursor tool, moved it down like this, then wrote something, and so on, changing tools and making it quite complicated. But now, you can simply press and hold the pen to create a blank space and write directly there. It's really amazing.

It's amazing. And conversely, if you want to delete a letter, you can just erase it in the middle like this. Originally, if you do it like this, a blank space will be created in the middle, so eventually you have to select it again, lift it up, and do it like this. But now, the letters below automatically move up. Wow, isn't this amazing? Of course, maybe in the beginning, you can only write mainly in English. It may take more time for Korean, but I think this will greatly enhance the usability for those who use the Apple Pencil. Also, with the update to iPadOS 18, finally, you can use a calculator app on the iPad. When I first heard this, I thought, Oh, they finally did it now. Apple is really weird. I've heard a lot of stories like, Steve Jobs didn't like the design of the iPad calculator app, so they couldn't put it in.

Yeah, I was curious to see how pretty the iPad calculator app would be when it comes out. But as soon as I looked at the calculator, I thought, Wow, if it's going to be like this, why did they add it now? The design is actually nothing special. But when I tried out the functions a bit, I thought, Oh, if it had been added a bit later, it would have been really good. There are a lot of really good functions in it. That's the formula memo function right here. Actually, you can use apps to export this kind of thing on an iPad or a Galaxy Tab, but this one has much more advanced features. This formula memo function is where you can enter numbers like this with the Apple Pencil, put an equal sign next to it, and the result comes out automatically like this. When it's just up to this point, it's something that can be done with that kind of value, but it's really fun because the data is reflected in real-time here. And it's quite interesting when I put in these log values here.

It's really fun that the changes are reflected. When you input a 2 here, the original numbers that came out will appear. Also, these recorded items can be retrieved because they are linked to a memo app. So, when you want to add up various numbers like this, you just need to underline them, and all the numbers will be added together. Isn't the intuitiveness really amazing? According to the information announced by Apple, even more complex formulas with various variables can be calculated in real-time. If you change the values in the middle, you can see the results changing in real-time as well. Just up to this point, it was already impressive, but what's even more amazing is from now on. By creating a variable like this, and then tapping the equal sign to add a graph, it automatically turns the formula into a graph. Then, if you tap on the variables above and swipe left or right, the numbers will change.

This is automatically linked to the graph, and I really think this is an amazing feature. After seeing this, I felt a bit angry wondering why they only added a calculator now, but it fits perfectly. It's a truly impressive feature that makes the heart of a tech geek beat faster. Also, now you can naturally add items to the Control Center by pressing Add Item here. You can make it larger like this, and I like it. This is a common change in the new iOS and iPad. When you go into settings now, instead of all the apps being lined up at the bottom, they are organized neatly like this when you tap on an app. It looks cleaner on the outside. In the past, it was a bit annoying when all the apps were lined up like that, but I honestly think this is a very positive change. Next, let's look at the Mac.

I did mention features like the ability to mirror your smartphone and AI functions, and also talked about features like Safari automatically highlighting areas of interest for you. However, the most practical feature that resonates with me now is the window management feature that allows you to conveniently arrange window positions. In fact, with the existing Mac, if you install an app called Rectangle, you could do similar things. However, since it wasn't a built-in feature, there were inconveniences like apps occasionally shutting down, needing to restart them, occasional conflicts with other apps, and the hassle of setting everything up manually. But now, with this built-in feature, you can adjust windows simply by dragging the mouse, and being able to move them with shortcuts is a truly satisfying feature. Ah, Apple used to not really listen to what people wanted in the past, but now they have finally brought in this feature.

Now, it seems like we are getting some customer feedback. Besides this, there are a few other changes. I also use a Mac in real life, but it doesn't resonate with me that much, so I'll briefly mention the Mac and move on to other features. Next, about the earphones. The two biggest features of the earphone function are head gestures and call quality improvement. When you have the earphones on and receive a call, the sound of the incoming call comes from the speaker inside the earphones. This was already possible before, but now, if you nod, you can immediately answer the call, and if you shake, you can reject the call. Oh, this is so convenient. When you are outside listening to music and a call comes in, you have to check your phone and press to receive the call, which is bothersome. However, being able to do this with gestures like this is quite a convenient feature in my opinion. Also, when making calls with the earphones, the call quality of AirPods wasn't that bad to begin with.

It wasn't comfortable, but now with the software update that separates my voice from the surrounding noise, it enhances the call quality by delivering my voice better. Hey, the performance of that chip inside the AirPods seems to be good, so it can handle things like this. I will test how much it has actually improved when the official version is released. Now, the last part left is arguably the most anticipated AI feature at this WWDC. Apple calls it Apple Intelligent Light, so originally, what AI smartphones like Galaxy and other devices can do, like finding photos with specific people, is possible. But, I don't remember well, finding a specific person doing a certain action in a video.

I know that this isn't possible right now, but Apple, when asked to find a video of Maria doing tumbling in a grass field, accurately finds and presents the content like this. It recognizes all the content in the video like this, enabling users to utilize it. Also, while surfing the web, there are moments when you need to input your driver's license number. Normally, if you use a Galaxy or a regular smartphone, what do you do? If you have taken a photo of your driver's license, you would go to the gallery, check the photo of your driver's license, look at the numbers, then go back to the web browser, and enter them. But do you know how it works now with an iPhone? When faced with this situation, it immediately displays the result of the driver's license photo. Here, with just one tap on the add button, you can input the information right away. Isn't this amazing? Of course, this kind of amazing AI.

In addition to functions, many minor functions have been introduced. For quite a long time, for example, things like AI drawing pictures for you are a bit cliché now. Of course, now Apple can draw specific missions here, so you can express sentimentally like this, and they say you can create emojis the way you want. Actually, I don't really know how amazing and great this function is. But now, in the Notes app, this feature is called a magic wand. The magic wand feature allows you to roughly draw a picture, then press the magic wand, draw a circle like this, and analyze the drawings and text inside to create an image. This seems really useful, and even more useful is that if you draw a circle with the magic wand in an empty space, it automatically...

I'll order and draw related images for you. Isn't this function really useful for people who can't write well? In the past, you had to search for related photos on places like Pixabay, then find similar images, download them, adjust the size, edit, and so on. But now, you can just draw a circle once and create it like this. Isn't this innovative? At this WWDC, Apple showed features like spell check and text correction, which can all be done in Pages. Some people evaluate Apple's AI shown at WWDC as trash, but from my perspective as an iPad user, I think this is a very convenient feature that many people can use. Especially, this feature is said to be an on-device function that processes without an internet connection.

So, usually people who use the iPad often use the Wi-Fi version instead of the cellular one. But it is said that this feature is really useful even for those people. However, this feature is expected to not be available in third-party apps like GoodNotes or Flexcil for now. It seems like it will be supported in some native note-taking apps like Notes or Keynote in the future, but I am curious if it will be expanded through updates. The last AI update is real. Actually, Siri was a feature that many people hardly used, but this time, Siri has been significantly updated. Firstly, it now understands speech better, and secondly, it is integrated with GPT-3. When they say it understands speech better, it means that now it can catch up even if you pause in the middle of speaking or change your words.

It means recognizing. For example, Siri, if you ask, Siri, how's the weather in Seoul, especially in Dongdaemun? Seoul and its surrounding areas are currently under clear skies. If you change your words in the middle like this, Siri may not understand properly. However, in the future, even if you change your words in the middle and stutter a bit, it is said that Siri will understand better. After saying this, you can ask, How's the fine dust in that area we just talked about? It is said that even if you use a slightly indirect pronoun, Siri will understand well. And now, it's not just about calling Siri by voice, but anytime you press the home button twice, you can use the Siri function to type and write. It's very welcoming. However, if the existing Siri is asked a bit complicated question, like Siri, what smartphones are being sold now?

Please organize the sales figures by date. I'm sorry, but I can't help with that. I already mentioned that I can't assist. However, even if you ask complicated questions, would you like to hear the answer with Keynote and PowerPoint integrated? Siri answers like this, and by simply pressing confirm, you can immediately see the neat Keynote and PowerPoint results. I think it's a significant advantage. From my perspective as a die-hard Galaxy smartphone user, I envy this a bit. So, when I look at different parts of this WWDC, I really wonder why these features, which have now been introduced, weren't implemented earlier in Galaxy. I feel that many essential points were not emphasized enough due to the abundance of features. However, as someone who uses a lot of Apple devices these days, I believe that the content presented at this WWDC was truly practical and innovative. In fact, there were too many things shown during the presentation.

When I look at it, the content that used to be exclusive to Galaxy is now so exciting and fascinating when Apple presents it. When they make a big fuss, some truly innovative features are somewhat buried. However, in this video, I explained various features for quite a long time. How do you think? Aren't there really great features? Of course, as with what Google recently announced, like GPT-4, something that will surprise the world, it was not present at this WWDC. However, from the perspective of actual users, many practical and good features have been updated, and because I can somewhat anticipate what kind of AI features Apple will update in the future, as someone who actually uses Apple devices, I think this presentation was very pleasing. However, if I were to point out one slightly disappointing aspect in this presentation, it would be something other than iAd or iOS updates, but Apple's intelligent AI features.

The supported devices are very limited, so looking at this, Samsung initially restricted the devices that support AI features quite a lot, but as people said it's not right, they expanded the devices. So, I hope Apple will also expand the devices that support AI functions more broadly, regardless of other things. If you are curious about what was announced at Apple's presentation, I hope this video was helpful. Alright, I will stop here for this video. If you enjoyed the video, please subscribe and like. Thank you, this was Techmong.
