New to iOS 8.3


Apple just recently launched a new update, iOS 8.3. Check out a few of the cool new features!

Reorganized emoji layout with additional skin colored emjois

Press down on an emoji and additional icons will appear. I can now send emojis that look just like me and my brown hair! I still cant figure out why the couples' emojis don't change, we're not all yellow, but at least you can get 5 different Santas. 
 

Wifi Calling 

Sprint and T Mobile only (in the US) as of now. Come on Verizon, get with the in crowd! 

Filter Unknown Senders

Ever get a text message from a spam company? To filter these out of your messages go to Settings, Messages and scroll to the bottom to Filter Unknow Senders and turn that button on. Great, good bye sweepstakes I've never actually won! 

Password Settings for iTunes

You can now set your password settings for purchased, in-app purchase, and free downloads. Go to Settings, iTunes & App Store, Password Settings. I love that I wont have to enter a password for free downloads, I think I can trust myself, right?
