Apple today announced iOS 17, a major release that upgrades the communications experience across Phone, FaceTime, and Messages; makes sharing even easier with AirDrop; and provides more intelligent input that improves the speed and accuracy of typing.
Another big launch from yesterday's WWDC was iOS 17. The most exciting part for me is definitely the call posters, I love those little bits of creativity, that and the standby mode
I like the suggestions API that came with the journal app since that sounds like it can bundle all the different apps you use and allow developers to summarize activity, all the airdrop features, and the real time collaboration
The live voicemail stuff is pretty exciting, also very curious to check out the new journal and mood check-in apps.
I've been waiting for "videomails" (the video message at the end of a missed FaceTime call) for ages! Also transcripts for audio messages... now I can finally get on board with audio messages.
the first prime-numbered iOS version since 2019. Big day for giga-autists like me
