iOS 18 is about to be officially announced, and expectations are higher than ever. In the latest edition of his Power On newsletter, Mark Gurman shares exciting insights into what Apple has planned for its latest operating system update. Let's take a closer look at what iOS 18 has to offer and why it could potentially be considered one of the most significant updates in Apple's history.
Every year, Apple strives to improve the user experience of its devices through innovative updates, but with iOS 18, the company seems to have taken a huge leap forward by introducing new features and improvements that make the iPhone even more intuitive and user-friendly. From redesigned apps to a more flexible home screen, iOS 18 promises to change the face of mobile technology.
Comprehensive app updates
iOS 18 brings Gurman according to extensive updates for some of the most popular built-in apps. The Photos, Mail, Notes and Fitness apps are not only getting a visual makeover but are also getting functional improvements that make them more useful. For example, the Calculator app is being expanded and is now also available on the iPad, which further increases productivity.
iOS 18: New features on the home screen
One of the most exciting changes in iOS 18, according to the report, is the redesign of the iPhone home screen. For the first time, users can freely place their app icons and are no longer bound to a rigid grid. This flexibility allows for a more personal and efficient use of the screen.
design improvements
The design of iOS 18 is described as "modular," meaning it's easier to update and customize. This modularity could make it easier for developers to continually improve apps and ensure they're both aesthetically pleasing and functional.
AI integration
In addition to visual and functional improvements, iOS 18 will also introduce advanced AI features that have the potential to revolutionize the way we interact with our devices. These AI-powered features are designed to personalize and optimize the user experience.
Apple: Universal Apps
In another step to unify its platforms, Apple is working to standardize its app library, making it easier to keep apps consistent across different devices like iPhone, iPad, Mac, and even Apple Watch.
