Next Gen - iOS 18: PERSONALIZATION & INTELLIGENCE ACROSS MULTIPLE FEATURES & APPS

At this year’s WWDC, Apple introduced iOS 18, a significant update set to redefine the user experience on iPhone.

With extensive customization features and a sophisticated Apple Intelligence tool, our iPhones are more personal, capable, and brighter than ever.

CUSTOMIZATION

One of the most striking things about iOS 18 is its significant leap in customization, allowing users unprecedented control over their devices’ appearance and functionality. The Home Screen, Lock Screen, and Control Center have been overhauled to offer more flexibility and personalization.

Users can now position apps and widgets in any available space on the Home Screen, placing them directly above the dock for instant access or framing their wallpaper perfectly. App icons and widgets can adopt a new aesthetic with dark or tinted effects and be resized for a personalized touch. The Lock Screen also gets a makeover, enabling users to rearrange the control buttons at the bottom of the screen. For those with the iPhone 15 Pro and iPhone 15 Pro Max, the new Action button can be configured to invoke various controls, enhancing accessibility.

The Control Center has been redesigned to offer quicker access to frequently used controls, such as media playback and home automation, and allows for customization with third-party app controls. This redesign introduces a new controls gallery where users can adjust control sizes and create custom groups, enhancing the user experience.
