Updates

Find my iPhone has been updated too and the camera has had some additions that will make it faster to use.

When you received iMessages and SMS previously, there were many who disliked the lack of a timestamp, but now TechCrunch says you can reveal the timestamp for each and every message stating you’ll “never argue about exactly when a message was sent again!”

The always helpful Siri has also been given a voice makeover and can search for more on your phone.

Reviews on Twitter have been mixed, with some loving the update while others regret updating.
