Apple will announce iOS 17 and other “major releases” of its operating systems during the WWDC (World Wide Developers Conference) to be held in early June, when it should also release the first betas to developers, starting a testing process that will will probably conclude in the autumn.
So far there have not been many rumors about the novelties of the iPhone operating system, even if, according to what was stated in recent months by Mark Gurman, Bloomberg journalist, it should be a update particularly focused on improving performance and stability.
The ultimate goal, it seems, was to ensure greater “reliability”. In fact, Cupertino would have tried to avoid repeating what happened with iOS 16, an ambitious update that had both deadline problems and an initial phase in which bugs had to be fixed and the development of some functions that only arrived in the months had to be completed. following the public release.
However, according to Gurman who returned to talk about iOS 17, during the development of the operating system the strategy would have changed. iOS 17 should in fact include several new featureseven if it seems that a real “killer feature” will be missing like that of the renewed lock screen seen in iOS 16.
iOS 17, whose internal codename would be “Dawn”, it should still have features that will “satisfy” some of the most frequent user requests, new features that will be “nice to have”. Basically, says Gurman, instead of focusing on revolutionary improvements, Apple will focus on small changes that will make using the device smoother and more intuitive.
In short, Apple would be working on a version of iOS which on the one hand should avoid problems in use, especially in the launch phase, and on the other will introduce new features as always. Among these, according to rumors, there would be anext generation CarPlay experiencedifferent changes to Sirisupport for the sideloading and alternative app stores (due to comply with various regulations), mixed reality headset support with a specific app, new features for Mail, Apple Music, Reminders, Files and more.
