Better Email Experience: 

Many people use their phones to send quick emails.

You can also unsend emails and never forget to send or open an important email with the handy “Remind Me” feature. 

Internet Safety: 

Passkey is a new internet security feature for Apple devices. Instead of remembering hundreds of difficult passwords, all you need is a simple passkey, and it can provide access to websites and apps on devices other than your phone or Android devices. You can scan the passkey with a QR code through Touch or Face ID and call it a day.
