Apple announced during its "California Streaming" event that iPadOS 15 is rolling out on September 20, but we've learned that some iPadOS 15 features won't be available yet. Delayed features are part and parcel with Apple's large annual software updates, so while we're not surprised to learn that we'll have to wait on certain functionalities, we're still a little bummed. When can you update, and which iPadOS features will be immediately available and which will be delayed? We'll walk you through it.

Whether you're a caregiver for a friend or family member or just looking to create a little bit of friendly competition by sharing your Health app fitness details, you'll be able to do so thanks to the new Sharing feature in the Health app on iPhone.
