As Apple's WWDC continued, details of iOS 15, which weren't revealed in Monday's keynote, were gradually revealed in individual sessions. It also includes new features for gamers who want to share gameplay highlights online.

Full-scale support for PS5 / Xbox controllers

The iOS / iPadOS 14.5 update introduces support for Sony's PS5 DualSense controller and Microsoft's Xbox Series X controller on iPhones and iPads. It also supports a dedicated share button and a create button on each controller, allowing you to capture gameplay screenshots with a quick press or record a game screen with a long press.

This feature was a handy shortcut for users who want to record videos without having to leave the app for in-game boss battles or important moments, or use screen capture controls on iOS or iPad OS, but at the same time the user records their actions. If you don't, you can miss moments and unplanned highlights.

In addition, on iOS / iPad OS 15, Apple will leverage the adaptive triggers on the PS5's DualSense controller to provide a unique gameplay experience that recreates the feel of a real object, like pulling a bowstring. Until now, Apple's mobile devices have been suitable for casual games, but not for more serious game titles. But as the company expands its support for superior third-party controllers and hardware, it will be a great option for full-scale gameplay on the go.
