In early June, during Apple's Worldwide Developers Conference (WWDC 2023), the brand officially announced the iOS 17.
Let's face it, the highlight was Vision Pro – the company's augmented reality glasses – but the new operating system was also highly anticipated.

With design changes and new features, iOS 17 promises to greatly improve the daily lives of those who use iPhone, iPad and other Apple devices. If this is your case, continue reading and find out what will be in the palm of your hand soon.
Unfortunately, the company has not disclosed the release date. However, Apple's timeline is pretty predictable, so we can expect the new operating system in mid-September or October - along with the announcement of a new iphone.
Among the features that version 17 of Apple's operating system includes:
text prediction
Apple wants iPhone and iPad users to be more agile when writing something. So they will make typing more intuitive in iOS 17.
The system will learn and adapt to the way the user writes, studying the most used words, textual constructions and even slang.
Automatic completion of verification codes
You know when you download an app and it sends you a verification code via SMS or email? The new system will automatically pull the number sequence from the email for you.
Today, this function only works when the verification code arrives via text message.
Siri faster
Let's face it, the Crab it was kind of slow compared to other virtual assistants like Alexa. Now, you only need to speak “Siri” to activate it and you can also teach it sequential commands, without having to ask for everything separately.
contact posters
Now you can make a “poster” for your contact. You can choose a photo – which will appear in full screen when he calls you – and customize fonts, colors and even add a Memoji.
New app: Journal
“Dear diary”… iOS 17 will have a new application, Journal, which will act as a daily of modern days. In it, you can record details of your day to day, adding text, photos and even inserting information from other applications.
Offline Maps
Apple has been trying to improve Maps for a long time so that it starts to clash with the Google Maps. This time, the apple giant brought the option to download the app's maps to use them offline. However, Google has been doing this for a long time… It is difficult to compete.
interactive widgets
Apple decided to improve the widgets on iOS 17. Now, the user will be able to perform actions with them, such as playing a song or marking a task as finished.
What's New on FaceTime
O FaceTime also got an upgrade on the new iOS. It is now possible to leave a “video message” when the person does not answer. In addition, you can use gestures to react during the call, such as sending hearts and fireworks.
Standby mode with upgrade
Your iPhone or iPad locked screen will get a new face. It is now possible to make the screen look like a clock radio and add other information. This is ideal for when you put your cell phone in at night to charge.
NameDrop
This one was the talk of social media and is perhaps the coolest of all. Now, you can share your contact details in a more practical way: just bring two iPhones together and they exchange phone number, email and other credentials. Modern, isn't it?
