Mark Gurman continues to give us small installments on the news iOS 15 will bring us, and today’s ones include a new notification bar, iPad multitasking improvements and tighter privacy controls.
The iOS 15 notification bar is going to undergo major changes after having remained almost unchanged for a long time. New, redesigned notifications with more focus on auto-response options. In addition there will be different configurable states (work, driving …) this will assume different behaviors of notifications. There will also be novelties in the privacy options, with a new control panel in which we can see more clearly how our data is used by applications. Recall that application tracking has already started to be controlled with the update to iOS 14.5, and this change in iOS 15 will be one more step in this regard.
There will also be important new features on the iPad home screen, with the possibility of placing widgets wherever you want, as you can do on the iPhone since the launch of iOS 14. It There will also be other changes on the home screen, and especially in multitasking. With the new iPad Pro and M1 processor, the demands on this new tablet have increased, and it looks like Apple will improve the handling of multiple windows at the same time, so that multitasking will be more appealing to more advanced users.
There will also be changes in tvOS and watchOS, in which we can see new interfaces. All of these changes are in addition to those we have already commented on previously about Messages, Health, etc. We will be able to see all of this news during WWDC 2021 which will start on Monday, June 7 from 7:00 p.m. (GMT + 2). and you can follow it live with us on the blog and on the YouTube channel.
