Adam Kos We are waiting for WWDC, an event where Apple will show us a lot of features that its older devices will also learn. This is usually done worldwide, but there are also services that focus exclusively on the US and are very slow to reach international borders. And since the Czech Republic is a small pond, maybe this time too we will see something that we may never see.
So here you will find an overview of selected functions and services that our neighbors can already enjoy, perhaps just beyond our borders, but we are still waiting, not when or if Apple will ever have mercy on us. Perhaps, as part of its developer conference, it will surprise and mention how it intends to expand to the rest of the world with Siri. If this voice assistant finally came to visit us, we certainly wouldn't be angry. But we can probably forget about Apple Cash.

What else to start with than the most burning pain. Siri was originally released as a standalone app for the iOS operating system in February 2010, and at that time the developers also intended to release it for Android and BlackBerry devices. Two months later, however, Apple bought it, and on October 4, 2011, it was introduced as part of iOS in the iPhone 4S. 11 years later we are still waiting for her. She is also the reason why the HomePod is not officially distributed in our country.
Apple Cash
Apple Cash, formerly Apple Pay Cash, is a feature that allows you to transfer money from one user to another via iMessage. When a user receives a payment, the funds are deposited onto the recipient's card, where they are immediately available for use at merchants that accept Apple Pay. Apple Cash was already introduced by the company in 2017 together with iOS 11.

CarPlay is a smarter and safer way to use your iPhone in your car so you can focus more on the road. When the iPhone is connected to CarPlay, you can use navigation, make phone calls, send and receive messages, listen to music and do many other things. The function works more or less smoothly in our country, but unofficially, because the Czech Republic is not among the supported countries.
Apple News
Personalized news directly from Apple, bringing you the most interesting, relevant and above all verified news is only available in Australia, Canada, the United Kingdom and, of course, the United States. This also applies to the Apple News+ service, Apple News Audio is only available in the US.
Live text
Have you also learned how to use the iOS 15 novelty, which takes over different texts from a photo using OCR? And how does it work for you? It's also surprisingly good for us that the Czech language is not supported by the function. Only English, Cantonese, Chinese, French, German, Italian, Spanish and Portuguese are present.

Fitness +
We have Apple Music, Arcade and TV+ here, but we cannot enjoy exercise in the form of Fitness+. Apple is relatively behind in the expansion of the service, while there is absolutely no reason to limit access to it to other non-English speaking countries, who would certainly understand what the trainers are saying. As one of the reasons why Apple does not want to expand the service, there may be concerns about possible legal wrangles if someone does injure themselves while exercising because they misunderstood the given exercise that was not told to them in a language they understand.
This is how Apple introduced Fitness+
What about text prediction? which has been in ios since version 8 and is not in the road anymore :D
