What’s New Apple iOS 14.6?
The new OS includes some features which the Cupertino giant detailed in its April Spring Loaded event. Apple Card Family is now available on iPhone models with iOS 14.6. Users can share their Apple Card with up to 5 individuals via a Family Sharing group with Apple Card Family. This would allow families to keep track of their spending, create credit, budget, and more.
Apple Podcasts Subscription, which is available in iOS 14.6, allows users to purchase a premium subscription inside Apple Podcasts. They can subscribe to channels or particular shows to get ad-free episodes, extra content, as well as early access to episodes or exclusive content. The podcast creators will set the price, and they may also give free trials. Apple Podcasts premium subscription costs Rs. 1,799 per year in India.

In Lost Mode, users can also provide an email address rather than a phone number, as well as AirTag and Find My network accessories. When tapped with an NFC-capable phone, AirTag will not display the entire number. Users who are using Voice Control may access their iPhone using just their voice for the first time after a system restart.
Finally, the iOS 14.6 update solves issues such as not being able to unlock with an Apple Watch, blank reminders, missed call blocking extensions in settings, Bluetooth issues, and decreased startup performance.
Additionally, bookmarks in Safari may be reordered or relocated into a folder that appears hidden, some web pages may not show properly after your Mac wakes up from sleep mode, keywords may not be included when exporting a picture from the Photos app, and display would appear unresponsive while searching something in PDF documents.
