New control center
Does this have location services toggle yet? My number one battery drainer?

Yeah but stickers tho, that thing we use.
Yeah. Honestly, I'll take an uglier, better control center. It's hidden most of the time, anyhow.

Airport interiors in Maps... worth iOS 11 by itself
And here we go.
New Maps that no one uses. LOL
Good, I can finally check the mall floorplans of the malls I will never visit.

Very glad lane guidance is in maps. My biggest gripe with turn by turn nav.

I swear to god if they announce lane assist for Maps, I'll buy a carplay console right fucking now.

Yep. I can chalk "Apple is out of ideas" off on my Apple Event thread bingo.

The Apple Pay in texts seems really weird, where the hell does that money go? Do you have to tell your phone to put it somewhere? I don't think that's how a lot of stuff works when it comes to putting money in an account.

Wow, thought they were gonna go the Android route and let you use your phone as CarPlay and not need a head unit.

Apple giving me directions to retail locations just in time for the death of American malls
Oh lane guidance. That's one bit from Google Maps that made me more likely to use it.
This part of the keynote is paid by your friendly neighbourhood mall.

Was thinking that was where it was headed too lol.
Android had that feature in 2009 it was nice.

I'm torn on DND for driving. I mean I appreciate it. But I dunno. We'll see. Nice to have it though.
It'll probably work like facebook messenger payments.
Goes into ApplePay Cash, and from there you can spend it or transfer it to your bank.

It goes to the Wallet app as a gift card to pay for things anywhere Apple Pay is accepted or you can transfer it to your bank.

speaker definitely coming.
I remember my Lumia 640 having this feature, if yo told the system this BT device is a car it activates the exact same settings. I think it was removed in Win 10 though, lol.

Yeah, I'd love to have CarPlay on my phone. Since I don't have Sync 3 in my car I can't even use it. Let me set it to change to CarPlay mode when I am driving.

I made a thread once that this idea shares a thread of. Giving the OS status messages that other users who view your contact info can see. Like "in a meeting" "driving" "eating", etc. Hopefully it expands to that one day.

I don't have CarPlay in my car, just a standard Bluetooth kit,but the DND for cars is a life saver. Especially the auto reply. I'll appreciate that when driving.
