What’s new in iOS 14.5

Unlock iPhone with Apple Watch

Apple is currently testing out a feature for the iPhone that allows you to unlock your phone even if you’re wearing a face mask but there’s a catch. You need to have an Apple Watch to use the feature. Obviously, that watch needs to be running WatchOS 7.4.

Set a default music player of your choice

At last, Apple is letting you set a default music player of your choice. That means you can now choose Spotify as your default music player in iOS 14.5. So the first time you ask Siri to play music, it’ll list all the music streaming services you have installed on your device. All you need to choose which one you want to set as your default music player.

Dual-SIM 5G support

Once the iOS 14.5 update is live, 5G dual-SIM support will be made available to all the users.  That means dual-SIM iPhone users will get 5G on the phone’s physical SIM slot and digital eSIM. The support for dual-SIM 5G was previously only available in China. 

App tracking transparency

One of the big features of iOS 14.5 is App Tracking Transparency. Simply put, users will be able to see which apps have requested permission to track. Right now, app tracking is turned on by default, though users can disable it. Facebook worries that by keeping tracking off by default the move would impact its business.

Support for PS5 DualSense and Xbox Series X controllers

iOS 14.5 includes support for PlayStation 5’s DualSense and Xbox Series X’s controllers. With this support, you can the PS5 DualSense controller and the Xbox Series X controller to be used with iPhones and iPads. The good news is that Apple Arcade games and iOS games that support controllers will be compatible with the PS5 DualSense and Xbox Series X controllers.
