IPhone users are most looking forward to the new features of iOS 15, and off-screen fingerprint recognition is actually the first.

Although iOS 15 will be released soon, reliable news from now shows that iOS 15 focuses more on some existing functions, including health, SMS, notification and so on. I'm afraid there are no functions that iPhone users really want, such as fingerprint unlocking under the screen, split screen, small window, screenshot, application double opening and so on.

Although Liu Haiping's design on iPhone is not a full screen in the true sense, compared with full screen, it brings more screen share and efficient interaction, and the shortcomings of Liu Haiping and Face ID can be ignored.

As wearing a mask has become the norm in the past year or two, users are more eager to add screen fingerprint unlocking on the new iPhone. In a survey on the expected functions of iPhone conducted by foreign media before, the voice of touch ID was the highest.

Apple seems to understand the user's demands and added Apple Watch to unlock the iPhone in iOS 14.5. However, compared with hundreds of millions of iPhone, the popularity of Apple Watch is not very high. To experience this feature, you need to buy an Apple Watch, and this feature is only effective if you wear a watch and a mask at the same time.

From the system level, it is not difficult to unlock the off-screen fingerprint (relatively speaking), but only system support is not enough, and hardware support is needed to unlock the off-screen fingerprint, which means that even the unreleased iPhone 13 series cannot support off-screen fingerprint recognition.

At present, in addition to the mainstream fingerprint unlocking and face unlocking, there are also intelligent unlocking methods through headphones, watches and other devices. Apple Watch is obviously included. At present, most Android systems support unlocking through watch bracelet devices with their own headphones or even third-party headphones. The unlocking condition is only the Bluetooth connection between the mobile phone and the watch headset.

Nowadays, more and more people use Bluetooth headsets, including AirPods. If this function is turned on, the efficiency of unlocking mobile phones will be greatly improved.

Apple's failure to support this feature may be due to security considerations, not technical issues.

Although some renderings show that there will be a split screen function on iOS 15, there is no further detailed introduction, and there is no authoritative source or gossip.

This function is very common in Android system, and has been opened on iPad. Although the screen size of the iPhone is getting larger and larger, which fully meets the requirements of a full screen, the screen is still not intended to be launched.

Both domestic mobile phone manufacturers and foreign Sony Samsung have basically added common side applications and small windows on the basis of supporting split screens. I believe many users have a deep understanding of the practicality of the small window function.

Although videos can be played as small windows in Safari browser or displayed in other applications, there are still many restrictions, such as not supporting other applications.

Similarly, many Android devices even support the use of small windows on the basis of split screen, which makes it possible for a mobile phone to do multiple things at the same time, and is a proper master of time management.

Although Safari browser supports image truncation, it can only be saved as a PDF document, and cannot generate a picture. When using other applications, at present, iPhone still can't cut long pictures without relying on third-party apps, and most Android supports editing and sharing pictures directly after cutting them.

Now more and more people like to separate life from work and study, because they also choose to use multiple social accounts. However, in order not to affect social interaction, they often need to log in to multiple WeChat or QQ on the same mobile phone at the same time. Therefore, the demand for application of double opening is gradually emerging.

There are more functions that are not available on iPhone, but generally available on Android phones, such as better spam messages and phone interception, information screen display, privacy space and so on.

Of course, there are many things that Android can learn on the iPhone, such as the shortcut command function, the relay function connected with other Apple eco-devices, and the restricted advertisement tracking function enforced on iOS 14.5.

In fact, both Android and iOS users need a good UI and a good system experience, and these excellent functions are often the key to improving the experience.
