Although the long-awaited reintroduction of battery percentages is the feature grabbing the spotlight in the most recent iOS 16 beta, another practical utility appears likely to make its appearance when the operating system comes later this year.
Users of iPhones now have the option to “Copy and Delete” screenshots in iOS 16 beta number 5, which is meant to lessen the likelihood that your photo gallery will become clogged with occasionally fascinating (but ultimately unwelcome) pictures.
The new iOS 16 beta features a “Copy and Delete” option that, when clicked, will save the screenshot you just took to your clipboard so you may paste it wherever you like. Importantly, though, the feature will remove the problematic photograph, saving your iPhone’s priceless storage space.
Users in iOS 15 have the choice to email, save, or delete screenshots, but doing both of those things at once necessitates a lot of back and forth clicking.
But as of right now, it seems like you won’t have to worry about sending screenshots taking up too much space in your iPhone’s photo gallery. Although the feature is still in testing for now (here’s how to participate yourself), considering how helpful (and easy) it appears, we’d anticipate it to make the cut when iOS 16 goes live in its entirety at the end of 2022.
The customisable lock screens, which include dynamic widgets, configurable text fonts, and more colour possibilities, are the main new feature in iOS 16, while Focus mode is also expected to receive an update.
With the help of “Live Activities,” which are essentially pinned, widget-like alerts that let you check the score of a game, watch the status of food delivery, and other things, notifications are also receiving a facelift.
