by this point we mostly know what we're getting with apple announcements a dash
of groundbreaking here a pinch of vaguely trash can-shaped thing there and
maybe a sprinkling of new software to tie the whole thing together and that's
exactly what we got at the June 2017 Apple event with our first look at iOS
11 and although Apple didn't announce a
new iPhone to go along with it there is a bevy new features in iOS 11 that might
make your existing device feel like it's
on the bleeding edge yet again first off
iOS's navigation features will get a huge facelift Apple Maps has been
expanded with detailed floor plans for large facilities like airports and
shopping malls and if you're a driver
you'll see speed limits and even get a do not disturb while driving feature
that will disable all notifications when the iPhone thinks you're behind the
wheel useful for avoiding getting a ticket and giving even more money to the
local government while we're on the subject of bad ideas while driving you
can now enter special characters with a flick instead of entirely changing
keyboards while texting and on the
iPhone Apple took note of one of their
competitors key fablet features you can
now enable a special one handed keyboard that will push the buttons to one side
if your other hand is uh
occupied but while that will undoubtedly
be useful a feature that's already proven to be a little more divisive is
the overhauled control center instead of
being a smaller menu with fixed items
the control center now takes up the entire screen and is totally
customizable meaning that you can rewi widget to your heart's content though
some people have commented the design seems a bit more cumbersome of course
modern-day customizability doesn't come without a fair amount of data collection
machine learning will now help your device automatically characterize what's
happening in a particular photo to sort them into albums and Siri will begin to
suggest custom searches and even play
songs based on past habits which you
might consider either super convenient or super
unnerving either way Siri is also
getting her voice overhauled so maybe that'll distract you from the big new
Warehouse apple is building to store all of the dirt they have on you and your ey
device won't just be keeping track of your searches there's also an option
that will automatically delete apps you haven't used in a while in order to free
up space which could come in handy since there's still still no expandable
storage option for iPhone or iPad do
note though it'll hold on to the app data in case you change your mind and
reinstall later speaking of
regrets iOS 11 also offers you some
exciting new ways to part with your money with Apple pay integration with
imessage so you can make payments via text and a redesigned App Store with a
greater emphasis on screen filling images and easily accessible video
previews of the apps on offer then once
you're done installing apps and it's time to consume some music or video
you'll be glad to know that not only can the new AirPlay 2 control speakers in
different rooms individually but the volume display won't hog the freaking
middle of the screen anymore yes anyway
if you're on an iPad there are also enhanced multitasking options such as
the ability to drag an app from the dock at the bottom of the screen to open it
in split view as well as to drag data between split screened apps if you've
dropped even more dollar bills on an apple pencil you can now Mark up PDFs
and even take notes directly from the lock screen if you find yourself in a
hurry to scribble something important down or if your jackass friend with a
better iPad than you left it lying around and you're feeling particularly
bitter in that moment iOS will be coming to iPhone 5s and newer iPhone 5c users
are out of luck iPad Mini 2 and newer this fall and you can even get it if
you're using a sixth generation iPod Touch do iPods still
exist really wow neat racing against the
