iOS 16 is a month away from being unveiled at WWDC 2022. And the wait is getting long for some of us. To quench the thirst for news, the concepts and wishlists of the next iPhone operating system They are like an oasis in the desert. And the one that concerns us today helps us do just that: to lighten the wait.
An iOS 16 concept that brings our great wishes
If a few days ago we asked iOS 16 for an Apple Watch function, then this function, which it was none other than the always-on screenis included in the concept of iOS 16 developed by Konstantin Konovalov.
Here we see how the designer imagines the future iPhone with an always-on display. would only show time, date, day of the week and battery charge. All this in a subdued way on a very dark background. And access to the camera and flashlight disappears.
One of the sections that receives the most attention in this concept are the widgets. They have been redesigned to give us more information and be interactive: we can control the audio from our device without entering the application. One of the most anticipated improvements by users.
The iPhone control center has hardly received any changes. Konovalov envisions one where we can further customize its size and appearance, adding controls for voice memos and specific HomeKit accessories. A much more attractive and useful mosaic.
But what’s really been demanding for some “Pro” iPhone users is so-called true multitasking. Under this concept of iOS 16, you can deploy a second application under the current one directly from the dock. A handy feature for one of the small improvements imagined here.
And it’s landscape mode on the iPhone with iOS 16, which returns to the operating system after disappearing there are a few versions of iOS. The truth is that the multitasking mode would adapt much better if the home screen had this change.
Other improvements that come with the concept are images in notification centers, Apple News integration in Safari, a new interface for Wallet, redesign of Mail and wallpaper in iMessage chats. The truth is that this concept of iOS 16 brings some good ideas, we hope to see at least the changes in widgets, multitasking and screen still next month.
