However, iOS 18 includes more exciting additions that Apple didn’t highlight at the event.
Some of them can even change how you use your iPhone.
RCS solves all these problems for better cross-platform messaging.
Support for other carriers should roll out as we approach the final release of iOS 18.
2T9 Dialing
The Phone app is also getting an upgrade with T9 dialing support.
Another improvement to the Phone app is the ability to auto-complete numbers when manually dialing a saved contact.
This feature, long available on Android devices, makes calling someone much faster than searching through your contacts.
3Music Haptics
iOS 18 introduces many new accessibility features, including Music Haptics.
This feature helps people who are deaf or hard of hearing experience music better.
So, you might expect wider support once Apple rolls out iOS 18 in the fall of 2024.
4Eye Tracking
Adding to theplethora of accessibility features on your iPhoneis the new Eye Tracking feature.
This feature requires no extra hardware; it utilizes the front-facing camera and machine learning to interpret your actions.
Apple/YouTube
Fortunately, Apple has partly addressed this issue by integrating Reminders into the Calendar app.
So, this change is definitely a step in the right direction.
Thankfully, it has now received its first major overhaul.

These changes make the iOS controls app far less cluttered than before.
These handy additions make me even more excited about iOS 18.
