A couple of hours ago Apple released the long waited iOS 9 to the public and it is currently available for download via OTA. iOS 9 comes with handful features and improvements that you guys should know. However, I've covered in this post what's new in Settings application and right now I have counted 20 new features..
Shall we start ?
#1 Ability to search in Settings app
Yes from now on you can quickly search for the settings rather than navigating through different screens to get to the setting you want to change. Just type whatever you want or you looking for and the results will pop up.
#2 Battery
According to Apple, iOS 9 improves your device's battery by an additional hour. They have achieved this feat by making the entire operating system, apps and key technologies more efficient. iOS 9 also includes a major new feature called Low Power mode, which can extend your iPhone’s battery life by 3 hours.
So quite rightly Battery has got its own settings panel in the Settings app in iOS 9, which allows you to enable or Disable Low Power mode, and where you can check Battery usage (instead of Settings > General > Usage > Battery Usage).
#3 Passcodes are now 6-digits
Whenever you try to set a passcode in iOS 9 you will have to enter 6-digits instead of 4. It doesn’t force you to change the passcode to a 6-digit passcode, but if you try to change it, you will have to use a 6-digit passcode.
You also have the option to continue using a 4-digit numeric code. You get the option when you tap on Password Options.
