Apple WWDC 2018: iOS 12 introduces group notifications

During the WWDC, Apple introduces a new feature to iOS 12. The new group notifications feature will allow users to group notifications together with a swipe and offers the ability to manage notifications from the lock screen.

VP of software Craig Federighi says, “These great features help you limit your distraction.” Additionally, users will also get a new ScreenTime feature which will let users limit how much time they spend on their device.

Apple has also brought in changes to Siri. Craig Federighi says, “We want to make Siri do much more for you.” Users can now record and assign your own phrases as Shortcuts and once Siri hears those phrases repeated.

And we finally have group FaceTime. You set up a group call or if you have a group chat, you can just hit a button and do a group FaceTime. Members can join or drop out as they want. Group FaceTime works in iPhone, iPad, Mac.
