Summary

The video highlights the most visible features in Apple’s 17.2 operating-system updates, including Siri AI becoming available in Portuguese and improvements to conversational, contextual requests. It also covers suggested actions in Messages, dual-camera support for FaceTime group calls, and changes to Apple Music, Apple TV, Podcasts, and watchOS. The redesigned Health app did not arrive with these updates, despite earlier expectations. The presenter notes that MacMagazine has a separate post with more detailed changes and fixes.

00:05 Hey B Magazine folks, Rafael Fishman here, as always bringing you the news on the latest updates for Apple’s operating systems. iOS, iPadOS, watchOS , macOS, visionOS—they all dropped. Versions 17.2 are now available, and I’m bringing you a video with the main things, the most relevant and visible ones. Not all of them. For those who want to know all the tiny details, everything that changed, fixes , improvements, and so on, there’s a post over at Mac Magazine about each of these updates. All right? This video is

00:38 supported by Mazi Negócios, by our dear Breno Masi, whom you know from his entire journey with Mac Magazine, Apple , and technology, who will be hosting the MASI Experience on December 5th and 6th in São Paulo. It’s an opportunity for you as a business owner to exchange experiences, expand connections, and discuss the challenges of building businesses that truly grow. It’s a chance to step out of your routine, hear other entrepreneurial stories, and return with great ideas for your company. There’s a link in the description and a QR code so you can get more information and purchase

01:09 your ticket for the MASI Experience on December 5th and 6th in São Paulo. Well, the first and most significant new feature of the 17.2 systems, not just on the iPhone, but also on the iPad, Mac, and Apple Watch, if you have a compatible iPhone, is the arrival of Siri AI in Portuguese, along with a few other languages that weren’t supported before. Remember that it arrived with the 17.1 systems in beta only in English. I already made a full video testing Siri AI in Portuguese on the first beta of iOS 17.2. And what I can

01:40 tell you is that it has improved very little since then. It had some poor examples in my video. Apple made some small tweaks to the responses and performance. It’s still not 100%, it’s still considered beta, and in Portuguese, we still don’t have those cool voice controls; that more natural, modern way to adjust the pace, expressiveness, and rhythm of these voices. We only have voice one, voice two, but it’s really great that we no longer have those things like: “ Here’s what I found on the web for

02:12 you,” and many responses that it simply didn’t provide, which used to break things. That has improved a lot. In the end, it wasn’t very hard to improve the previous Siri anyway. So, I don’t know, even everyday things you never imagined asking Siri, now you can; I just put a cold egg in the pot and turned on the water. It wasn’t boiling. So I wanted to know how long I should leave it now, from what point do I start counting for the egg to be hard-boiled? For a

02:45 hard-boiled egg, you should start counting the time from the moment the water begins to boil. Let it cook for 10 to 12 minutes after it boils, so that’s obvious, just an example. You see that I gave a more complex prompt, right? Not something like just a single short sentence. It’s an LLM that we have here now again, based on the Apple Foundation Model, built on top of Gemini technologies. So I wanted to bring this everyday example just so you understand that we no longer have that restriction of giving a robotic command

03:19 to Siri. She will understand, even if you speak naturally, even if you bring up something more complex. And it’s something that takes time, I’ve been running it since the first beta, for you to understand that you can count on her for this kind of thing now. And there’s also the whole issue of it knowing more about our context and also letting us follow up on requests based on my photos; where was I on October 12th? >> Based on your photos from October 12th, you were in San Francisco, California.

03:55 >> Filter by photos where only I appear. >> Here are the photos from October 12th where you appear. Open the last one. I can’t open the photo directly, but you can tap on it to view it in full screen . >> OK. Enhance this image. Anyway, as I said, it’s not perfect, but you can

04:31 interact and ask more contextual questions. Keep the conversation going. There’s that classic example, right, of asking for the weather forecast in one place, then you can ask about another. It understands these things. It has improved a lot, but then again, it’s not very difficult to improve based on what we already had before. The second novelty is one that I personally haven’t seen working in practice yet, but they are what Apple calls suggested actions within the Messages app. The idea is for it to basically interpret the messages and give you quick buttons to add a reminder or add an appointment

05:04 to the calendar and things of that nature. Again, I haven’t seen this button working yet, but the settings for it are already present here in the system. Just go to the messages area inside apps, I’ll type m here, enter messages, and we have this new suggested actions section here. And it’s cool that you can individually choose which type of suggestions you want it to show you. As I mentioned, add to calendar, add reminders, notes, also show in Maps app, as well as flights and packages. And it even says

05:38 down there that if you don’t interact with these suggestions, if you ignore one of them many times over 30 days, it will stop suggesting it to you, since you aren’t showing interest in it. But again, I want to see this working in practice. Here in FaceTime, we have a cool new feature that had arrived before, but is now also available in group calls. You’re seeing me here because I have my daughter’s iPad right here on the side, but my view is this one. She’s supposedly seeing only my front camera. I can tilt it a little more here. When I tell it to flip, it now uses dual capture. So I’m showing

06:13 both my rear camera and the front camera. And this is what is now available in group calls as well. Here on her iPad, I can see both cameras at the same time. This was already working and requires one of the more recent iPhones. It’s worth noting this was already working before in individual calls, but now it’s also coming to group calls via FaceTime. When you don’t want to keep the dual call, you can tap here. Then it focuses only on the rear camera, or you can tap again here to enable both or go back to the front camera. You must have followed the controversy in the last few days

06:46 about the rebranding of the music app, Apple Music. And here it is, the little white icon, white background, with the black musical note. They also removed those more colorful elements here, more pinks and reds that were here in the app before. It became more of a standard blue. There was indeed a rebranding, which is actually very cool , with an effect based on an oil that responds to sound waves of a specific composition from the Apple Music

07:18 soundtrack, but the icon itself, they kept this boring black and white one. There’s still hope they might use something a little more stylized in line with the rebranding Apple posted on social media and YouTube. It stays a little more boring, a little too simple here in the system. Moving on to the Apple TV app, profile support is coming to the iPhone, just like it already had on Apple TV and iPad. So you can create a profile here for the Apple TV app,

07:50 specifically with a name, specify if it’s for a child, and customize other profile options here. So you can better separate your history—what you’re watching, series episodes, movies you’ve seen—you can keep it more separated. It’s a bit strange for it to come to the iPhone, but at least you can keep things organized and synced across iPhone, iPad, and Apple TV. The Podcasts app home page also got a small reorganization, especially in this upper area here. First, we have a section for new episodes. So, the

08:22 podcasts you follow will have new episodes highlighted here, and right below we have “Up Next” with things you’ve started listening to or watching that you want to continue later. So, it ended up a bit more organized and a bit more cohesive compared to what we had before in the Podcasts app. If you have an Apple Watch and installed watchOS 11, you certainly missed being able to double-click the Digital Crown to see open apps and eventually even kill an app you need to close for some reason, like to restart it and so on. There was a workaround to do this, but Apple

08:58 brought back the app switcher in watchOS in a slightly different way. I don’t know if I like it, but at least it’s back. When you’re in an app— I’ll open any one here, let’s use the calculator—instead of double-clicking here, which will be used for Camera Control, that new visual intelligence feature, which is why it’s not doing anything for now. But again, here in the calculator, you can touch and hold the bottom area of the app. And then it brings up the switcher just like before . And if I want to kill, for example,

09:29 the Home app, I swipe left and tap the X. So it’s the same switcher as before, but the way we access it now is by touching and holding the bottom area of the system. Finally, to wrap things up, there was a high expectation that this update would bring a redesigned Health app. Apple promised many improvements for the Health app. It was in the first betas, still only in English, but even in English it was scrapped—postponed, actually, right? Who knows, maybe for 11.3. Even those running the system in English, in the

09:59 United States, won’t see the new Health app. So it’s important to note here because there was an expectation for this to come in these updates and it still wasn’t the time. Alright? As I said, these are the first, the main new features we decided to highlight in this video here. There are others listed in the post that’s there in the video description, alright? Thanks for watching and see you next time with more. Best regards. Bye.
