On September 12, Apple held its ‘Wanderlust’ event, where it announced numerous new items, including the iPhone 15 series and the Apple Watch Series 9. However, it also mentioned iOS 17, which was released to the general public today. 

Here’s what to anticipate if you want to take a closer look at some of the less-known features and settings on iOS 17 right now.

TOP 10 IOS 17 FEATURES TO MAKE YOUR IPHONE EXPERIENCE BETTER

  1. DELETE ALL VERIFICATION CODES IN MESSAGES AND MAIL AUTOMATICALLY.

When you try to login in to your numerous accounts, the verification codes you get might soon fill up your text messages and email. Sure, you could individually erase each code, but it would take too long. After you’ve input your verification codes, iOS 17 now deletes them immediately. 

  1. EVEN IF YOU DON’T HAVE INTERNET ACCESS, YOU CAN USE APPLE MAPS.

 It took a while, but Apple has finally included the ability to download and utilize offline maps in the Maps app on iOS 17. Even if you don’t have internet, you can now navigate roads, highways, and tunnels more effortlessly. 

  1. IPHONE WIDGETS HAVE BECOME INTERACTIVE. 

When you touch a widget on iOS 16, you’ll be sent to the related app. For example, tapping on the weather widget takes you to the weather app. That makes perfect sense.

 However, in iOS 17, a select widgets, notably those for Apple Music and Home, are interactive, allowing you to operate the app straight from the widget. You may stop and play tracks, as well as browse through your recently played music, via the Apple Music widget. 

 When iOS 17 is released to the public, third-party developers may expect to include interactive widgets into their applications as well.

  1. APPLE MUSIC ALLOWS YOU TO LISTEN TO MUSIC IN REAL TIME.

 You may now activate a cross-fade effect between songs in Apple Music on iOS 17 instead of a jarring or quiet transition from one song to another. This function is essential if you’re on auxiliary duty. 

  1. TO DETECT LAUNDRY CODES, USE VISUAL LOOK UP… 

The laundry codes on your garments are intended to help you with washing and drying, but if you don’t know what they signify, they may as well be hieroglyphics.

 A new feature in iOS 17 enables you to rapidly interpret laundry codes. Take a snapshot of the tag and utilize Visual Look Up, a Photos tool that can detect words, plants, monuments, and other items and deliver information about them. 

  1. DECIPHERING WHAT ALL THOSE LIGHTS ON YOUR AUTOMOBILE DASHBOARD IMPLY. 

Visual Look Up does more than just detect laundry codes. It can also evaluate any warning signals on your car’s dashboard. Again, all you have to do is snap a picture and see what Visual Look Up says about your warning lights. Perhaps it’s time to get those brakes examined. 

  1. LISTEN TO ARTICLES RATHER THAN READING THEM.

 Podcasts have grown in popularity over the past decade, and for good reason. They’re simple to consume, and you can listen to them anywhere, even while driving.

 If you love podcasts, you’ll likely appreciate a new iOS 17 feature that allows you to ask Siri to read news stories, instructional websites, or anything else in Safari aloud. There is no need to read.
