The latest update to iOS, version 16.4, has brought several exciting new features to the iPhone. One of the most significant improvements is support for “Pure” 5G, which promises faster and more reliable connections. But there’s another feature that’s worth paying attention to: Voice Isolation.
According to Apple, Voice Isolation is a new option that changes the behavior of the iPhone’s microphone to detect the user’s voice and only send it over the call, significantly reducing noise from other ambient sounds. This feature has been available on FaceTime since iOS 15, but now it’s finally here for voice calls.
