Apple's annual developer conference WWDC 2024 has been the talking point all around the world especially in America ever since the tech giant unveiled the much-awaited iOS 18. While many are lavishing praise on Apple for the inclusion of new features in iOS18, billionaire Elon Musk has threatened to ban its employees from using iPhones at his workplaces as Open AI may store their personal information and even can use it without their permission. Called ‘Apple Intelligence,’ the AI features will manage notifications, automatically write things, or summarise text in mail and other apps. Now, another iOS 18 feature has come under the scanner of social media and Americans are worried that it may contribute to infidelity. Now, the question How an iOS 18 feature can rise cheating between partners?
How iOS 18's feature can raise infidelity?
Apple on Monday announced that iOS 18 will come with a feature that will help people hide or lock apps on their phones. Notably, the concept is already present in Andriod phones. Apple shared that the feature is meant to help people keep their banking apps private and prevent kids from accessing certain apps like Amazon so they don’t make wild, unsupervised purchases.
Apple in its statement said, "Users can now lock an app, and for additional privacy, they can hide an app, moving it to a locked, hidden apps folder. When an app is locked or hidden, content like messages or emails inside the app is hidden from search, notifications, and other places across the system.
Apple's iOS 18 hiding apps feature allows the user to obscure the app’s icon and name on the home screen and even pause notifications. And, this has worried netizens on social media.
A user took to the X handle and wrote, "This goes out to all my kings out there. If you are in a relationship, you are finished. IOS 18 is bringing the ability to lock & hide apps. If you think you’re girl was cheating on you before, wait until this update comes out this fall. Stay away from women gentlemen. -Focus on yourself -Build up your business -Make money online Today’s generation is f**ked."
Another user wrote, "iOS 18 gonna cause more problems in relationships then whoever you’re cheating with .....you heard it here first because it’s a feature they shouldn’t give but hey ... ima be good."
