Uiteindelik, you can use Face ID while its in landscape mode.

So, if you accidentally lock your phone while watching a YouTube video for example, no need to faff around, you can keep your device in the same position its in.

New iMessage features

And tap and hold over the area of text you want.

Extract pictures
