At WWDC, we\u2019ll get new versions of every operating system that Apple has. That includes iOS 17, iPad OS 17, Watch OS 10, and macOS 14. But today, we\u2019re going to focus on everything that\u2019s coming in iOS 17 later this year. Like what features are we getting? When is the first beta coming? When will it roll out to everyone? and much more.<br \/>\nWhen will iOS 17 be announced?<br \/>\niOS 17 will most likely be officially announced at WWDC (WorldWide Developer\u2019s Conference) in June. That\u2019s Apple\u2019s annual developer conference, which is typically focused on software, but we do sometimes get some new hardware there too. Now, we say \u201cmost likely\u201d for WWDC because there is always that chance that it could be announced earlier or later. However, Apple has always announced the new version of iOS at WWDC, since it was iPhoneOS.<br \/>\nWith the announcement of iOS 17, Apple will also go over a bunch of new features being added to the update. As well as releasing the first developer beta that same day. The public beta typically launches a month or two later.<\/p>\n<p>When can I download the iOS 17 beta?<br \/>\nThere\u2019s two answers to this question actually. If you\u2019re a registered developer, you\u2019ll be able to download it after the WWDC keynote in June. Apple has not yet announced the dates for WWDC, so we don\u2019t know specifically what day that will be just yet.<br \/>\nNow, if you\u2019re not a registered developer, you\u2019ll still be able to download the Public Beta. Which Apple does typically launch about a month after the developer beta. So you can expect that in July, or August at the latest.<br \/>\nHow many beta\u2019s will there be?<br \/>\nUnlike Google, Apple doesn\u2019t lay out the beta timeline, telling us exactly how many beta releases there will be. But for Apple, typically they start out at about once a month, and as it gets more polish, Apple will update a bit more often. In August, you could see a beta followed by a release candidate in a week\u2019s time. Which is probably the better way to do it.<br \/>\nWhat features are coming in iOS 17?<br \/>\nEven though a report from Bloomberg noted that we won\u2019t see a lot of new features in iOS 17 (or any of the other usual OS updates), due to Apple focusing more on xrOS for their AR\/VR headset, there\u2019s still quite a few features coming to iOS 17. And at this point, iOS is still a pretty mature operating system, so there\u2019s really not a lot that can be added these days. But here are the features that are rumored.<br \/>\nAlternative App Stores<br \/>\nFinally, alternative App Stores are coming to iPhone. But that\u2019s not Apple\u2019s decision. The EU is once again putting its nose where it doesn\u2019t belong, and forcing Apple to open up the iPhone. In addition to forcing the iPhone to add USB-C, the EU also wants Apple to allow alternative App Stores. Now does that mean we\u2019ll get a competitor to the Apple App Store on the iPhone? Probably not. It\u2019ll likely be more like App Stores like Epic\u2019s Store, where you can download games directly from Epic.<br \/>\nThis is part of Europe\u2019s Digital Markets Act, which doesn\u2019t actually go into effect until 2024, but reports have said that this is already being put into iOS 17. But it might not roll out til iOS 17.1 or 17.2. As it\u2019s not enforceable until March 2024.<br \/>\nIn addition to that, the EU is also reportedly trying to force Apple to allow sideloading apps. That\u2019s something that we\u2019ve had on Android for years (and honestly, I can\u2019t remember the last time I used it). That could spell disaster for Apple, with a lot of people downloading apps full of malware to go onto their iPhones. But we shall see.<\/p>\n<p>Revamped CarPlay<br \/>\nLast year, Apple showed off a revamped CarPlay, which looked really incredible. Apple called it the \u201cnext generation of CarPlay\u201d. Which allows the OS to take over multiple screens in your vehicle. So that it\u2019s not stuck with just a single 7-12\u2033 display. That allows it to show you more things in your vehicle.<br \/>\nWhen this was announced, Apple said that the first vehicles to support the next-generation CarPlay would be announced in late 2023. It\u2019s pretty likely that it\u2019ll need iOS 17 for that. So we should hear more about it at WWDC in June. Apple has also said that automakers that have committed to this new CarPlay include:<br \/>\nAcura<br \/>\nAudi<br \/>\nFord<br \/>\nHonda<br \/>\nJaguar<br \/>\nLand Rover<br \/>\nMercedes-Benz<br \/>\nNissan<br \/>\nPorsche<br \/>\nVolvo<br \/>\nSupport for Apple\u2019s AR\/VR headset<br \/>\nThis is the elephant in the room right now. The AR\/VR Headset has been rumored for many, many years now. But it seems very possible that this will be coming in 2023. Recently, we heard that the AR\/VR Headset was pushed back to the beginning of Q3 2023. Which makes it very likely that this would be announced at WWDC (just a couple weeks before Q3 starts), and released a bit later on.<br \/>\nThat also likely means that iOS 17 is going to bring support for the Apple AR\/VR Headset, and possibly some other cool features.<br \/>\nWill my iPhone get iOS 17?<br \/>\nApple has a better track record than all Android OEMs when it comes to updating their phones. And while we won\u2019t know for sure which iPhones are getting updated until WWDC in June, we do have a good idea. These are the iPhones we believe will get updated to iOS 17:<br \/>\niPhone 15<br \/>\niPhone 14<br \/>\niPhone 13<br \/>\niPhone 12<br \/>\niPhone 11<br \/>\niPhone Xs<br \/>\niPhone XR<br \/>\niPhone X<br \/>\niPhone SE (2020)<br \/>\niPhone SE (2022)<br \/>\nApple also generally releases iOS for every model on the same day. So you won\u2019t need to wait around for the update to come to your device. That\u2019s something we have to do on Android, unfortunately.<br \/>\nThe post iOS 17: Everything you need to know appeared first on Android Headlines.&#013;<br \/>\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/plus.maciejpiasecki.info\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/iphone-14-pro-AM-AH-scaled-1.jpg\" width=\"2560\" height=\"1707\">&#013;<br \/>\nSource: ndroidheadlines.com&#013;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Apple is gearing up to announce iOS 17 at WWDC in June, as it typically does.
