I’m very much enjoying the GenMoji stuff. Being able to send or react with an emoji tailored to the situation is not useful, but it’s fun when you come up with a good one.
Also Siri is definitely more functional than it used to be. It understands when I correct myself or change my mind. Very handy. Still far from perfect though.
Also on iPad all the AI-driven handwriting cleanup and stuff is really nice when taking notes.
But otherwise it’s not super useful. I don’t like the notification summaries, they aren’t very good. Though they are sometimes hilarious. Like Ring being summarized as “Thirteen people at your door and gunshots heard.”
Yeah Siri being more understanding is pretty nice and has gotten me to actually use it more again, but beyond that none of it is super useful to me.
…I did enjoy finally getting to make “shrimp with cowboy hat” using Genmoji after Apple kept using that as an example, though
I made a “Sanderlanche” emoji for use when discussing Brandon Sanderson’s mastery of story structure. Reading every one of his books I reach a point where it feels like I have to frantically push to the end.
It’s just a book with a big vaguely-snowy wave coming out of it, but I like it.
How do you use genmoji? Is it not rolled out to everyone on 18.2? I looked on YouTube and it’s showing that an an option in iMessage that doesn’t display for me.
Gotta have iPhone 15 Pro, 16, or 16 Pro, unfortunately. Or an M-series iPad.
