hi everyone Aaron here for zollotech and iOS 17 has been looking great according to the rumors
and leaks but are they accurate over the past few weeks and months a few leakers online have been
claiming different changes coming to iOS 17. some of the leaks have had a consensus across different
leakers including Mark German while some of them just haven't however a Twitter account
who was leaking a lot of information the other day suddenly deleted their account after after
Apple announced a Final Cut Pro and Logic Pro for iPad they went on to Mac Rumors stating that
there was an internal Apple operation to catch the leaker and ultimately their sister who they
were getting the information from was fired this seems very unlikely and even Mark German stated
that it's pretty much nonsense saying that it's mind-boggling that anyone would believe
this so whether or not any of that information was accurate it seems to be based on what Mark German
has said as well but the leaker had originally claimed that Final Cut Pro would release next year
and then logic pro would come after that that then Apple actually announced it and they deleted their
account after that since they weren't accurate they also had said iOS 16.5 would release after
WWDC but we know that it's actually coming this week so let's break down what's actually accurate
as far as the features that we believe to be accurate since they're from reliable sources
and go over some of the more questionable ones out there so far so the first thing we can pretty
much guarantee is it looks like Apple's going to redesign the control center typically we hear this
just about every year but there'll be things with refinements in here maybe not a full redesign but
some leakers have claimed that things like the flashlight instead of having a stepped version
of brightness would instead just have a variable slider instead instead of just five different
steps also there'll be more use of the dynamic Island this seems likely in that Apple's really
adopted this it's expected to come to iPhone 15. and right now it's basically used for things such
as timers or the stopwatch or different things with apple music and just not having a whole
lot of uses it's a great idea but it seems underutilized so having more features there
makes sense one thing that many of us are looking forward to that you can pretty much guarantee is
this will be a stability and reliability update that's according to Mark German and every leaker
so far has said that originally we thought there wouldn't hardly be any features in it
and it would focus on stability and reliability that's great as iOS 16 has been not so great up
until more recently with the latest updates we're also expecting performance enhancements whether
that's to older phones or whether or not even older phones are supported with the iPhone 10
and older we don't really know but it seems like all of the different phones will have support and
then we'll have performance improvements in general that's great news as there's been odd
lag here and there with things from the dynamic Island to just different applications opening
closing swiping things like that that should be much better this time around with the rise in AI
we're expecting Apple to at least integrate something into their services whether that's
search or something else completely we don't know but every year they typically update Spotlight
with some sort of functionality you can do things such as math here you could maybe do six plus four
and it will actually give you the sum so that's something that you'll see within
Spotlight search probably getting enhanced to have more functionality than it does now it's
a super useful tool and makes sense that Apple would just add at least a few things even if it's
not incorporating AI we're also expecting updates to Apple carplay this was promised last year with
iOS 16 and now seems to be finally rolling out in different vehicles that have been shown off such
as the Lincoln Nautilus for 2024 so it looks like it's sort of a based on an Apple carplay
setup where the whole dashboard including gauges and more would be taken over by it so we're going
to see more of that in the future we're also expecting updates to the Apple wallet Apple
wallet is expected to get some sort of redesign at least a little bit and that's probably due to the
additional features that keep being added to it so if we go into the wallet and we could see more
and more different state IDs or driver's licenses as we only have three currently but as Apple adds
more features such as the Apple savings account or Apple pay later a different interface would be
welcome to maybe unclutter it a little bit also we're expecting find my updates now specifically
what they're for we're not exactly sure but find my in general could be cleaned up a little bit and
also Apple's been working on making sure that air tags that are nearby that are not owned by
you notify you that they're nearby this has been a big problem and even Apple and Google have paired
together to make sure that there's some sort of notification system in place and standard that
if there's some sort of tracker nearby you're notified about it so that makes sense that they
would build something like that and to find my or possibly even more features in there as well
we're also hearing that there's going to be a journaling app included now a journaling app
such as day one but built by Apple and maybe using the device's information to actually
put information in there now apple is typically pretty good at making their own apps but other
third-party app developers who are focused on it such as day one will give you more features for
example that's why I use craft currently as far as notes go it just seems to be more feature packed
it looks better and is more organized for me but there are things such as the notes app that works
well I would expect something like day one but maybe less feature Rich but that's what we know
is actually coming to iOS 17. it doesn't seem like that big of an update when you look at it that way
however there's even more as Apple's already shown off a few features that we haven't seen yet one
of them is iMessage contact key verification we thought this was becoming already with iOS 16.4
where you would have contacts verified with an iMessage and not really have any issues as far
as knowing whether or not that's a legitimate text one thing we know Apple's working on is
accessibility modes with customization around the time of iOS 16.2 we thought Apple would introduce
this based on some information that nine to five Mac had found in the code they posted it on their
site and you can see what it would sort of look like with different customization accessibility
modes and also different icons you could change for the home screen making them larger if that was
needed this is something we haven't seen yet and hopefully will be in iOS 17 as this would be great
functionality added for accessibility however there's some questionable changes as well most
of those seemed like they could be legitimate but now that the leaker has disappeared maybe they
aren't but other sources have sort of corroborated some of this information so let's take a look at
those and some of those have to do with widgets widgets in particular are something that we've
really used for a couple years but haven't had a ton of functionality we could have customizable
widgets that actually allow for interactivity meaning that we could maybe have a music widget
where we could just change different songs or just get more functionality out of it in general that's
something that is still said to be in the works but hasn't been confirmed by multiple sources
also we're hearing more and more about the lock screen being customizable now that makes a little
bit of sense since we can already do that and maybe instead of just having what we currently
have some people have said we'd have more font customization as well as more widgets or more
information we could see on the screen then ultimately we could share that through a share
sheet just like we can with the Apple watch and custom setups so something like that makes sense
but currently you can't really customize it to the point where sharing this out would make sense so
maybe we'll have some significant changes as far as wallpapers I definitely would like to see some
changes recently The Pride wallpaper was added and interacts like previous wallpapers meaning
that as you slide up and down it moves it has interactivity and also when you switch from light
to dark mode or back from dark mode to light mode it actually changes we've lost these wallpapers
that have that ability and it's definitely something I would like to see apple bring back to
all wallpapers in the future so that's something we'd definitely could see fairly soon also we can
expect more live activities whether that's current apps that we have recent rumors say that we could
see maybe a larger map on the lock screen when we have directions for navigation enabled or we could
just see more interactivity with it in general that makes a lot of sense and also one of those
things supposedly has to do with music music is said to get a full redesign this time around
to get rid of some of the text that we currently have it's fairly text heavy and it would be more
visual if it gets a redesign I've never really liked it since they redesigned it to this sort
of app hopefully they change it in the future and I would really welcome some sort of change there
current features allow for things such as lyrics and that's said to be coming to the lock screen as
well so maybe we'll have the lyrics on the lock screen whether that's on the always on display
is hard to say but some of these features make sense as little additions to what we currently
have again we don't know that for sure though these things could or could not be on iOS 17.
also leaks from elsewhere have said that the app Library will be getting an update currently it's
a really nice way just to sort of see all of your different apps in one place but its organization
is completely hands off you can't change anything about it it would be nice to be able to organize
these into categories that I would want to use regularly putting not just what I have recently
added at the top but what I want at the top maybe being able to fully rearrange this some of that
customization makes sense but a lot of things I don't think we'll see that have been leaked
however I do expect at least a few of them to be accurate Mark German had recently said that he
plans to actually release more in the future based off of his Mac Rumors podcast so in a
recent podcast with Mac Rumors he said some of the different features that he expects and then he'll
have more in the coming weeks so within the next couple of weeks we could hear more and more as we
get closer to the final release of iOS 17. now the good thing about all of these leaks sort of maybe
not being true is that it opens the possibility of some surprises or maybe some disappointment
Apple hasn't seemed to surprise us for quite some time and so hopefully we'll get some of that we
are expecting Apple to unveil an AR VR headset at WWDC and of course that code should be within iOS
and iPad OS as well so those are things I would really expect to be in the update but some of the
things such as interactive widgets I would love to see but it's not really guaranteed also one thing
that could be in the update has to do with side loading of apps now the reason I didn't mention
this earlier is while it seems likely it doesn't seem likely across the world it only seems like
it's going to be in the European Union to comply with different rules in place so it would allow
for side loading of apps possibly additional app stores and it's similar to the rule that's going
to make apple switch to USBC on the iPhone with iPhone 15. so those things seem likely hopefully
they'll expand that that to the world we can currently install apps on the Mac outside of the
App Store it would be a similar sort of setup you don't have to do it but you would have the option
now as far as iPad OS 17 we're not really hearing a whole lot about that now recently like I said we
had Final Cut Pro and logic pro announced and that could mean we could get more functionality through
the Thunderbolt Port recent leaks have actually said that there would be some functionality here
with different monitors maybe different audio or video devices and multiple hard drives or solid
state drives for editing or something like that I would love to see apple redesign the files app to
make it more like the Mac in fact I would like this to be similar to a Mac when you plug it
into a monitor there's also rumors that maybe you could have a closed clamshell type of mode when
you plug it into a monitor meaning you could turn off the display and just use a mouse and keyboard
with it like you can on a Mac but again a lot of those rumors and leaks were from that source
that disappeared now as far as anything else well watch OS 10 is also said to be one of the
focuses to get a major redesign so there could be a full redesign here with a focus on widgets and
different interactivity that would be specific to the watch instead of sort of topping what we've
had with the iPhone we don't really know much more than that but it seems that's going to get the big
update along with that AR VR headset as far as features I would like to see well I think most
people would like to see split view multitasking where you could have an app at the top and the
bottom maybe iMessage on the top while you're watching a video on the bottom or maybe just
notes on the top While You're Going Through Safari and trying to take notes something like that would
be welcome but Apple hasn't done that yet I think they should as we have it on iPad but other than
that there's not much more I want from IOS it's at a point of maturity personally I would just like
to see a redesign of some of the icons as they're a bit stale and I personally am not a fan of flat
design a redesign of the music app a redesign of icons and some of the things I mentioned
were to be more than enough to make me happy with iOS 17 specifically stability but let me know what
you want most in the comments below hopefully we'll hear a little bit more and of course on
June 5th we'll actually see everything from Apple where we should have IOS 17 beta 1 released to
developers then the public beta is usually a week or two after that a final release is
typically within a few months in September before the iPhone 15 launches that's what Apple usually
does every year so it's not far away now only a few weeks and we'll see what iOS 17 really has to
offer so again let me know what you're looking most forward to in the comments below and of
course if you'd like to get your hands on this wallpaper I'll link it in the description like
