Apple's Safety Check is meant to help protect people in abusive relationships

Source Apple

One of the new personal safety features Apple introduced at WWDC 2022 is meant to help those in abusive relationships. The new Safety Check feature makes it easier to cut ties with their abusive partners. With iOS 16, you can manage app access and passwords and revoke any access to apps and features like Find My, location, data, contacts, and more. You can also find out who has access to your passwords and information.

And if you need it, there is an Emergency Reset option that resets access for all people and apps at once across devices synced with your iCloud. It's also a way to review your security settings.

Apple will let you edit or unsend an iMessage in iOS 16

Apple

One of the new iOS 16 features will allow you to unsend or edit a message after sending them. But this only works if you're sending a message to another iOS 16 user. And you can only edit or unsend a message up to 15 minutes after it's been sent. After that, it will be uneditable or can no longer be unsent. Those running iOS 15 or earlier won't get this feature. And they might even see the messages you have unsent even if it's no longer visible from your end. 

To edit or unsend a message, you need to long-press on the specific line in your conversation and tap on either Edit or Undo Send. As MacRumors pointed out, these features will only be available to blue bubble iMessages and not the green SMS messages.

It's still very early in the rumour cycle to verify any reports, but we wanted to share what you might expect from the next version of iOS. Online publication iPhoneSoft reported that Apple plans to drop a few iPhone devices from its support roster when the iOS 16 drops next year. The site got its information from someone running an internal seed, claiming the iPhone 6s, 6s Plus, and original iPhone SE will no longer be supported. 

On the iPad side, iPadOS 16 will reportedly be incompatible with iPad mini 4, iPad Air 2, fifth-generation iPad, and 2015 iPad Pro models. If the report is accurate, it still demonstrates how long the company supports its older hardware.
