The autumn appointment with Apple's news is approaching, during which the new iPhone 15 should be unveiled. The "Wonderlust" conference will also be the time to launch the iOS 17 operating system update worldwide, which will probably be made available after the presentation. Apple has already unveiled the main news of the software during the WWDC developer conference in June. At the heart of the experience will be greater personalization for the user.

Screen charging

When the iPhone is placed horizontally while charging, for example, the screen will show information at a glance, similar to what happens on Google and Amazon Alexa smart speakers. The new screen shows the time, photos, widgets and activities in real time; almost all customizable. It's a cross between the always-on display of the iPhone 14 and the nightstand mode of the Apple Watch. Standby can also show visible widgets. For example, you can check the weather, connected devices in Apple Home, the score of sporting events, or the status of a package delivery. Much will depend on individual app developer integrations.

Digital diary

iOS 17 brings with it a new app called Journal that creates personalized suggestions to inspire writing. These are selected based on information on the iPhone, such as photos, location, music, and training sessions. The diary gives the possibility to select a moment, for example, "morning visit, sea", and start writing. You can also schedule notifications to remind you to write and receive new suggestions.

New visual secretariat

Another novelty of iOS 17 concerns the answering machine. When someone calls but you can't answer the phone, there will be the option to leave a message, which the recipient will see transcribed live on his iPhone. A very similar feature is Bixby Text to Call on Samsung Galaxy smartphones, which has recently been updated with the Italian language. As for messages, Apple will introduce location sharing through the app. The feature, called Check In, is designed to let a loved one know that you have arrived at your destination safely.

Contact poster

In the Phone app you can create Contact Posters, graphics that the contacts who receive the call will display on their smartphone. For example, we can customize the contact in a similar way to the Lock Screen of iOS 16 so as to "send" this cover to the contacts we call.

Health

What's new in the Health app focuses on mental well-being. The user will be able to record their moods throughout the day and emotions, to see how to improve their mental state. This, also accessing assessments related to depression and anxiety in line with those used in hospitals, as well as resources available in your area. iPhones with Face ID will also help people position themselves at the right distance from the phone screen, reducing the risk of myopia for toddlers and helping to reduce visual fatigue for adults.
