iOS 17 Update; From The Release Date To The Most Interesting Changes And New Features

In This Article, We Will Look At The Rumors, Changes, And New Features That Will Probably Be Added In The iOS 17 Update.

Google plans to release new news about Android and the Pixel phone series next month with its famous I/O event. But Apple fans will have to wait until June to see a similar event held by Apple. It is said that Apple has put new features in iOS 17, and extensive changes will be made to the current capabilities of iPhones.

As we get closer to the date of the WWDC conference, more news and rumors are heard about this event. Although this event is not only for the iOS 17 update, it is expected that the new version of the iPhone operating system will stand out more than other topics of this event.

New features of the iOS 17 update

Setsuna Digital has revealed new information about Apple’s event, which may be false. This news source does not have an excellent track record in revealing information ahead of time, and its claims may not be valid. But the 9to5Mac website has also confirmed with Setsuna Digital that the iPhone 14 will be introduced in a new yellow color.

According to the rumors, significant changes will be made in a number of the current features of the iPhone, which, of course, are not considered so substantial and essential. Some of these changes are related to the new function of the Flashlight button and control of screen brightness. In the iOS 17 update, Apple has sought to personalize the lock screen as much as possible, and users can add different font sizes, emojis, wallpaper, and other features. It will also be possible to share the layout and lock screen mode in iOS 17. If you are a big fan of making changes to the lock screen and are happy with the new feature of iOS, we must say that we are just getting started, and there are other unique and exciting features in this operating system version.

The Apple Music application has also changed, and in the iOS 17 update, instead of focusing and relying on text, it uses graphic designs to convey information to the user. It is said that this program will be able to display the lyrics of the songs even on the lock screen. It is possible to personalize the list of programs in this version of iOS, which can bring new capabilities and features for users.

Will iOS 17 be a big update?

Answering this question may be a little early and even disappointing. We cannot say how well iOS 17 can shine among the previous versions of this operating system. Let’s also consider the unveiling of Apple’s mixed-reality headset. We will realize that this technology giant has spent more time developing and advertising this headset than the new version of iOS.

You have probably heard rumors about the possibility of sideloading programs and installing applications from a source other than the official Apple App Store. It is said that Apple will add the feature of installing applications from third-party sources to the iOS 17 update due to the pressures of the European Union to issue licenses for the operation of other software stores. This feature has been present in the Android operating system since its inception, and now after several years, we will probably see it on iPhones as well.

The removal of Apple’s dominance over the software discussion is a significant issue. Some believe these third-party software stores will be allowed to operate under Apple’s license and comply with the company’s rules. In this way, there will be no news of cracked or hacked programs; in fact, we will see the same original app store in the clothes of another program. Some other technology people say this feature is only for the European market, and the App Store in non-European countries will remain the only primary reference for iPhones.

Another possibility about the iOS 17 update is related to changes in the Control Center. This part of the operating system has been untouched for years, and it is not so unlikely that Apple wants to make changes in the control center after the lock screen. In recent versions of iOS, Apple has put more personalization on its agenda than ever, and users like this. Editing shortcuts and various features will be a big step forward.

There is still a whole month until the official presentation of iOS 17 and the WWDC 2023 event. As we get closer to the date of Apple’s event, the speculations increase, and at the same time, the probability of their being real increases. We must wait to see what Apple has in store for the techies.
