Apple has filled Adrenaline and Dopamine inside Apple fanboys/girls with dozens of never-before features in iOS 15.4. Rumours said it’d be the last update till iOS 16 arrives, but Apple fades them off with yet another update — the iOS 15.5.

Best part, it still brings many new features! However, as yet, it’s in beta, so you may not be able to download if you use public iOS software. Anyways, you can scroll further to know the features you’ll be enjoying with the final iOS 15.5 update.

#1. Apple Pay → Apple Cash

You might have already seen a button saying ‘ Pay’ (Apple Pay) below the message bar in the default Messages app. Now it’s rebranded to ‘ Cash’ (Apple Cash).

#2. Apple Card in Wallet App now has Request and Send Buttons
