Everything New in iOS 14.7

The iOS 15 betas are in full swing and gearing up for a fall release, but iOS 14 still has some life left in it. The latest iOS 14.7 update for iPhone brings watchOS 7.6 and an update to the HomePod. Let’s take a look.

“I think one of the coolest features is the new MagSafe battery pack support,” Neil Parker, co-founder and chief technology officer of the Lovecast video streaming service, told Lifewire via email. “I think this is going to be super useful specifically for livestreaming events,” he added, not surprisingly.

If you want to use Apple’s new MagSafe Battery Pack, you’ll first need to update to iOS 14.7. That’s because it’s not just any battery with a magnet. The pack supports a bunch of useful Apple-only features that require some deep software hooks: reverse charging from the iPhone and a lock-screen (or widget) display of battery levels. Apple’s battery brick isn’t the cheapest, or even the most spacious, battery pack for iPhone, but it is arguably the most useful.
