hi everyone Aaron here for Zollotech and this week has been filled with all
sorts of upcoming Apple news and leaks and things like that so I wanted to talk
about not only iOS 14 but watch OS 7 all sorts of other information as well
including some new things from today and so the first thing is I'll just cover
real quickly we're really expecting basically new iPads Pro that have an
updated camera this could be coming later in the year or in a few months we
don't really know a hundred percent for sure along with the iPhone 9 or iPhone
se 2 that will look very much like this iPhone 8 with the same sort of display
and then also we should have some new updated Apple TVs and things like that
along with later in the year Apple watches but let's first talk about air
tags now air tags doesn't have a major update in fact we haven't even seen it
in reality or in person anyway but air tags will be user locatable tags that we
can place in a backpack or something like that
and it looks like Apple instead of having a rechargeable battery may
actually have user replaceable batteries to allow the device to work for a long
time so that's something I would definitely welcome and hopefully we see
something like that maybe they'll offer two options it's really hard to say now
let's start off with Apple TV and Apple TV will supposedly be getting a new
Apple TV remote now a lot of people really dislike the current remote I'm
one of the strange people that actually likes the remote and I've never had an
issue with it maybe if it was a little bit bigger it
would be better but it seems like we're going to have an updated Apple TV remote
with the next Apple TV new specs but there's no real hint of a redesign of
the box itself also we may have a new workouts application that will be used
along with the Apple watch so if you're working out a lot and you want to use
your watch to track your activity there may be a new app where you can train
with people on an Apple TV app much like there's already apps but Apple will have
their own version now speaking of workouts with the Apple watch watch OS 7
is expected to have some new features like we do every year and the first
feature would be a blood oxygen saturation sensor or an o2 set sensor
and instead of just monitoring our heartbeat you could use the same sort of
sensor to monitor how much is actually in your blood which is very
helpful when working out or just checking to see your actual saturation
level it's something that you see at a lot of different healthcare facilities
and things like that they're kind of common at this point so
to have that on the watch would be really helpful
now with watch OS 7 we may also have a tach imager and what that would mean is
a dial around the outside edge or a new info graph with this ability and that
allows us to calculate speed over distance so you could do that to time a
race or something like that and let you know how fast someone's moving based off
your tachometer so we may have that as a new watch face and that's something
that's on other watches that you can buy that aren't Apple watches but it's
something that isn't really used that often so it'll be interesting to even
either have that option or maybe have something similar to that in watch OS 7
also we may be able to share watch faces with others so we'd have a share sheet
in the watch app where you can actually share your watch face with family
members and things like that so let's go into the Apple watch app so maybe you
have some faces that you've actually used maybe some of your photos from and
things like that you'll be able to send those to other people within the watch
gallery so maybe we would be able to share one of these to a friend with
maybe a background we like something like that also we will have a new kids
feature it looks like so where you can actually lock down your iPhone a little
bit with screen time you would have a similar app not just screen time but
instead of screen time you would have a kid's feature where you could pair your
Apple watch and your child's Apple watch to the same iPhone and then you could
adjust things like screen time or manage the watch and also have a school time
mode for the watch so it'd be really interesting to see that along with
remaining information of sleep tracking along with the watch this is something
we've seen on other fitness bands and the Apple watch could benefit from it as
well and we would expect that as long as it has fantastic battery life so that's
pretty interesting we should see all of those things with watch OS 7 and
probably more but again keep in mind this is all sort of early information
and this could change at any time so they could leave some of these features
in they may take some out and add others it's really hard to say now with iOS 14
this is most of the information that many of you are excited about including
my and the first thing is there may be a
new app that uses your camera with augmented reality to show you what's
going on around you so similar to what you can do with Google Maps with maybe
looking down the street for directions and things like that you could use your
phone pointed at a building and it would tell
you what it is so whether or not that would be a completely new app or
incorporated into an existing app it's hard to say but it looks like right now
it may be a new app where you could get a directory of say a store or something
as you point it down a store aisle it will show you where where things are
maybe in an Apple Store you could raise it up and point it and it would show you
that there's max on one side accessories on the other things like that so that
could be kind of helpful and then with Apple home or home kit there may be a
new feature so that if you have lights connected to it they'll adjust
throughout the day sort of like night shift but for your home overall so
throughout the day maybe you could take out some of the blue light towards the
end of the night if you have some Philips hue lights or something like
that where it would adjust the light based on the time of day so if you had
one of these turned on it'll take a second you'll see it light up here and
then you could dim that over the time of the day where it would either dim or
turn on and off or things like that so that'll be really nice right now you can
do that of course manually or change it but it would be all done automatically
based on what you have set up in the home app now also home kit has support
for secured cameras so if you have a secured camera it will supposedly be
able to recognize faces so right now if you have a Google nest cam that will
actually do that already where you can recognize a face but it would do it
securely with iOS on the device itself using the knurl engine so instead of
actually sending that information out to Apple or out to someone else you can
keep it all locally so that would be a really interesting feature as well now
this year Apple seems to be focusing on other accessibility features last year
it looks like they focused very heavily on accessibility for those that are
visually impaired this year they may be focusing heavily on those that are
hearing impaired so if you have less than perfect hearing you may have the
ability to have your phone or other devices in your house detect sounds like
anything from fire alarms to doorbells to baby's crying or someone knocking on
the door and instead have your phone it's haptic feedback or the taptic
engine to let you know that something's going on so that's a really great way to
do that I think if you have this in your pocket or in your hand and maybe someone
knocks on the door it could give you a little tap in your hand and let you know
someone's there so these could be features that we see this year with iOS
14 now along with the haptic accessibility features there may be some
air pod accessibility features where the phone can actually tune the air pods for
those that hear different frequencies differently so maybe you can hear high
frequencies better your phone could tune the air pods so that you could hear
higher frequencies most of the time so if you're using your air pods you could
hear around you more often or easily so it will do things like that and then
finally your camera may be able to detect hand gestures now we've seen this
a little bit with things like the Google pixel 4 and 4 XL where you can wave your
hand using a using a little bit of a radar to detect that but instead Apple
may be using vision to learn what your hands are doing so maybe that means sign
language it's hard to say but there's not really a lot of details but
basically it would be able to detect hand gestures now as far as wallpaper is
concerned Apple may be changing the way it's categorized so if we go to settings
and then we go back to wallpaper currently we only have a couple
different options so if we go to choose new wallpaper we only have dynamic
Stills and live instead of just dynamic stills in life we could have categories
such as flowers or plants or animals things like that where we could better
sort our wallpaper based on what we like wallpaper seems to be something a lot of
it you like as well as myself and it would be great to have a section that's
dedicated to wallpaper and be able to sort that now one of the most
interesting pieces of information that's come out is that iOS 14 home screens
may gain a list view and if you have an Apple watch you may already know that
this exists on the Apple watch and if you go to your apps you can see you can
sort them alphabetically and just scroll through a list now you can switch by
just force pressing go to a grid view or go back to a list view and it looks like
iOS 14 may gain something similar and so I mocked this up to see what it might
look like and this is what it may look like maybe you'd be able to search at
the top and then have all of your apps listed alphabetically so
you could scroll through them I could see how this could be more helpful for
those they have difficulty seeing the display and just want to scroll through
things but I think a lot of us just want the ability to sort the applications how
we want on the home screen and maybe have some widgets or some blank space or
resize them and things like that but it does look like we will get a list view
if Apple continues to add this in and leaves this with the final version now
aside from that we should also get the integration of Ali pay into Apple pay so
it looks like that's in the code I don't see why they wouldn't integrate that
since that's something that's used around the world and so that makes sense
to see that coming to iOS 14 as well now with iPad OS there's been some
information saying there'd be new keyboards with trackpad or Mouse
integration that could work really well in the future but in order for that to
work you would need to redesign iPad OS a little bit to change the way the
current mouse cursor works that was introduced with iPad OS 13 and so what
that means is there may be a new mouse cursor that shows up when you're using
the mouse and then quickly disappears when you're not using it you'll also be
able to to finger tap to right-click on an app and basically get the touch to
press or happen to press feedback that you would normally get and then also
there may be some new gestures to help you navigate between applications so the
current ones are a little bit confusing for some people and right now if I
wanted to bring in multiple apps it's a little bit confusing where you want to
bring in maybe say settings here off to the side it works fine but it doesn't
work as well as some other things do so for example if I want to bring music
over here now now we can bring it in and sometimes it snaps in place and it
doesn't and there's been a lot of complaints about that lately so maybe
we'll see a slight redesign with that now that's all the information so far
with iPad OS and that doesn't mean we won't see more with iOS 14 and iPad OS
in the future but there's even more information that was kind of leaked
today about new MacBook Pros and MacBook Airs shipping by June now there may have
been delays I thought we'd see them already but they
may be pushed back to June but a MacBook Pro and a MacBook Air should be coming
with the new keyboards also there's some information from Minji quo which it's
hard to say whether or not this is legitimate or not but there may be new
arm Macs as soon as the fourth quarter of twenty
twenty or twenty twenty-one but in 2021 supposedly there will be a complete
redesign of the MacBook Pro that actually makes sense since it's been a
long time for a full redesign but at this point I think they're doing well
with the sixteen inch and the upcoming forty ninjas so there's all of this
information out there saying that all these updates are coming we will only
know this when WWDC is announced or whether or not Apple live streams that
are whatever they're going to do this year so it's hard to say what the what
they'll actually do with that but I'm excited for iOS 14 particularly with a
ListView and hopefully a new home screen view along with some iPad OS changes and
some other things that we hopefully aren't expecting and watch OS of course
but let me know your thoughts in the comments below if you'd like to get your
hands on this wallpaper I'll link it in the description as I always do if you
