New Delhi / San Francisco, NFAPost: Apple iOS 16 will let users edit an iMessage for five times and once they reach the limit, the edit option will disappear from the long-press menu.
In previous releases of iOS 16, the company allowed 15 minutes to unsend a message. With the latest update, the time frame has been significantly reduced to two minutes. The user will still have 15 minutes to edit a message.
Furthermore, each of the edits will be logged and visible to both the sender and the receiver of the iMessage, reports 9to5Mac.
“This means the person you are messaging will be able to see any edits you’ve made,” the report said late on Wednesday.
You’ll be able to check the edit history by tapping on the “Edited” text that sits below an edited message and all of the edits will appear above the latest one.
The change has been spotted in iOS 16 beta 4 that will help users edit and unsend iMessages.
Other new features in iOS 16 include a redesigned Lock Screen with support for widgets and additional customisation, and an Apple Pay Later installment plan.
Live Activity is a new feature that helps users stay on top of things that are happening in real-time, such as a sports game, workout, ride-share, or food delivery order, right from the Lock Screen.
In addition, SharePlay is coming to Messages, making it possible to enjoy synced content like movies or songs and shared playback controls all while chatting in Messages.
Apple gets Lamborghini veteran onboard to help boost EV programme
With an aim to boost its electric autonomous vehicle programme, tech giant Apple has onboarded a veteran Luigi Taraborrelli of car maker Lamborghini, media reports say.
According to Taraborrelli’s LinkedIn profile, the executive appears to have left Lamborghini in May, TechCrunch reported citing Bloomberg.
Taraborrelli has worked at Lamborghini for nearly 21 years, most recently leading the development of chassis and vehicle dynamics.
During his tenure at the company, Taraborrelli worked on Lamborghini’s Urus SUV, Huracan Coupe, Performante and Aventador Coupe, among others. He also worked on a few limited series projects, such as the Lamborghini Sterrato.
Taraborrelli’s hiring, along with a few others in recent months, suggests Apple is still committed to producing an electric car, the report said.
Of course, Apple has made those signals before only to lose key employees or run into other headwinds that threatened to derail the project, it added.
Applea¿s so-called Project Titan has had its ups and downs since launching in 2014. The project has been repeatedly delayed and the company even reduced the team’s size at one point.
As per the report, it also lost its fair share of talent. For instance, Doug Field, the engineering executive who was leading Apple Special Projects — a team that was also working on the Titan car project — was poached by Ford in September 2021.
However, Apple has made a few key hires and appointments in the past year, including tapping one of its top software executives Kevin Lynch to oversee the project.
In May, Apple hired Desi Ujkashevic, a longtime Ford executive who most recently was global director of safety engineering.
