I wish my iPhone had this awesome security feature that’s on every Android

iOS 14.5

iOS 14.5 has been one of the most consequential updates in recent memory to Apple's mobile operating software that powers the more than 1 billion active iPhone devices in the world, such that even users who don't follow technology news too closely are no doubt paying much more attention to this iOS release compared to previous updates. That's partly a result of the ongoing spat between Apple and Facebook, which culminated in the new iPhone setting that allows users to tell services like Facebook not to track them across the various apps they use (something that's, of course, at the core of Facebook's business model). And boy, are users flocking to that new setting in droves, in the process delivering on advertisers' worst fears -- analytics data published in recent days points to users in the US choosing to opt out of this kind of behavior tracking some 96% of the time, now that they're given the choice following the release of iOS 14.5.

Of course, there's a lot more packed into this new software release, including everything from new emoji characters to a re-calibration of battery health reporting, AirTag support, and new Siri voices, to name just a few examples. But this is not to suggest by any means that there's not still room for new additions to iOS, at least one of which arguably ought to be brought over from Android.
