Apple has officially unveiled iOS 17.
At WWDC 2023, the company's developers conference, Apple introduced the newest version of its iPhone operating system. Per usual, the iOS 17 update won't be available until later this year, but we got the full details on what to expect when it's released.
iOS 17 comes with all around updates to core functions like Phone, FaceTime, and Messages. This includes personalized appearances from incoming calls called Contact Posters, live transcription of voicemails, and automatic decline of calls identified by your carrier as spam.

In Messages, iOS 17 comes with new search filters for narrowing results, ways of catching up with unread messages, and an easier way of reply to inline messages by swiping. Audio messages are also transcribed. iOS 17 has an improved interface for the plus button on Messages, which also includes emoji stickers, and the ability to make live stickers from photos.
Check In is new feature in Messages which notifies contacts when you've arrived at your destination. If your location hasn't changed, Check In will share details like battery life, location, and cell service details.

It has improved design for fixing grammatically mistakes, a better way of reverting to a word that you didn't want corrected, and predictive text recommendations inline so you can tap the space bar to fill out full sentences. And, you can finally drop F-bombs.
Apple announced a brand new journaling app for iOS 17 appropriately called... Journal. The app uses machine learning to make suggestions to inspire journal entries by analyzing recent activity from photos, workouts, interactions and travels. You can also schedule notifications to remind you to write and maintain a journaling routine.

StandBy is integrated with Siri, and other Apple or third party widgets can be added. Standby adapts to low light so it can be used while sleeping.

iOS 17 is available today to members of the developer program with a public beta launching in July. It will be fully available as a software update this fall.
