iOS 17 Update: What can iPhone users expect?
According to the source, iOS 17 will support all iPhone models supported by iOS 16. However, there are some questions about iOS 17's compatibility with older iPads with A9 and A10 Fusion chips that still need to be clarified. The main features of the update are performance, efficiency, stability, and long-term support for older devices. iOS 17 is expected to include some new features, including additional settings for the iPhone 14 Pro's Always-on display, additional filters for Focus mode and changes, and additional options for managing notifications. Additionally, there's said to be a custom accessibility mode, CarKey improvements and more car implementations in the Wallet app, UI changes in the Health app including changes to the "Favorites" interface, greatly improved search and spotlight functionality, an absolute monster of ARKit APIs/frameworks, changes to the Camera app, and "active widgets" that offer "one-touch buttons, sliders, and more" to make widgets "more dynamic."
