Two new features will be released in iOS 17.2 in 2024.
The iOS 17.2 update has finally been released this week, and many iPhone users have been waiting to try out the new features that have been teased through the iOS 17.2 beta for the past few weeks. iPhone 15 Pro users get a new status video feature, while all iPhone users get a new Journal app, among other system improvements. However, some of you may have missed that two features that were expected with the iOS 17.2 update didn’t actually come out.
AirPlay for hotels
During the WWDC 2023 keynote, Apple introduced a new version of AirPlay that works in all hotels and was supposed to come with iOS 17.2, but new reports have now pushed the timeline to 2024 without giving a clearer idea of when it’s likely to roll out. out.
The AirPlay feature is meant to help Apple users scan a QR code on a hotel TV to securely share videos, photos and music from their iPhone to the big screen. The company is likely to support TVs from brands like Samsung and LG, while the list of hotels should become clearer closer to the launch date.
Apple Music collaboration playlist
As the name suggests, Apple Music users can share with friends, have them add their favorite songs, or even remove less popular ones. The feature was part of the iOS 17.2 beta, but Apple reportedly removed it due to spam.
Although these two features are delayed, Apple has already started working on the iOS 17.3 beta, which brings new useful features such as stolen iPhone protection, which makes it difficult for thieves to reset the device. Keep an eye out for other features that iPhone users can expect to see in upcoming iOS 17 updates.
