Read the Apple 15 Preview and think how refreshing the cool-aid will be. Messages will stack multiple photos, Safari has a new fresh look, Live Text from any photo or camera image is cool, Photos now has Visual Look Up for more AI magic, Spotlight Search will find photos and more, Photos is also curating our memories in new ways, iCloud+ will replace existing iCloud storage plans and add privacy features ...
Hidden in the full list of features is this gem: the Photos image picker interface will let us specify the order of photos in Messages ... and other sharing scenarios.
After Apple announces the public OS is available - for free!, take care to review app updates BEFORE you update your OS. Make sure any critical apps are iOS15/iPadOS15 compatible before updating.
Go to Settings > General > Software Update > Automatic Updates > Install iOS Updates > OFF (now the screen changes to Software Updates > Automatic Updates > Download Only).
Once your critical/favorite apps have updated, and you have heard from classmates about their successful update experiences then ... go for it!
