At WWDC in June, Apple will officially announce the iOS and iPad OS 17 systems. Apple is very discreet with whatever it is working on. The company almost do not do any official teasers before launch. However, no matter how foolproof Apple keeps its info, they find ways of hitting the public domain. For this reason, there have been several leaks and rumours about the coming iPhone 15 series as well as the iOS 17. According to a recent report, more details about the iOS 17 system are now public. The report claims that the new system will come with major changes in the control center. Also, the dynamic island will support richer interactions (the settings of the always-on screen will be better). In addition, Apple will bring new changes to the search experience of the system.

That’s not all, the company will also improve the CarKey, ARkit API, and camera app of the new system. There will also be improvements to other features of the system to ease use. According to the most recent reports, Apple may speed up the replacement of older users because iOS 17 won’t support devices with 3GB of RAM. Also, the new system might fail to function on devices with A9 and A10 chips. From Apple’s view, whether older devices can upgrade to iOS 17 mainly depends on speed, efficiency, and stability. All iPhones with an A11 chip or higher that can run iOS 16 can upgrade to the new system.
