Since its presentation at WWDC23, we have been analyzing the performance of iOS 17 with precision and detail, only then can we tell you what our feelings are.
After several weeks of use, I will tell you what, from my point of view, are the most interesting novelties that the latest version of iOS leaves us. For that, I invite you to discover the top 5 incredible features that iOS 17 has included so that you can know it in the most absolute depth. Only in this way will you be able to have all the details for the launch of the official final version which is expected for the last quarter of this year 2023.

Sleep mode or “at rest”, as the guys from Cupertino translated it into the operating system itself, allows you to enjoy all the benefits of the AMOLED panel and incorporates a kind of always-on display
Also, sleep mode This will allow us to activate a parameter that transforms said information into a reddish tone, so that it does not negatively affect the rest of those who have it in a charging base on the bedside table.
The Weather app, now with more features
More functions does not mean more precision, and the fact is that the Weather application is still quite inaccurate in population centers like Madrid, mainly because if we do not constantly activate the location, it bets on the station nearest airport weather forecast.
Anyway, the Weather application has undergone quite a few improvements, andespecially now that it will allow us to adjust notifications so that we receive proximity alerts of rain and other bad weather.
In addition to the above, The Weather app has undergone a huge overhaul, being one of the most affected sections of the general user interface of iOS 17,
Lock screen, also on “Time”
The Weather app continues to play a leading role in this “top” of the new features that I like the most on iOS 17, and one of them is precisely the fact that the Weather application and its personalized lock screen have improved remarkably. From now on, it will offer us an animated background which will represent the weather in real time, and will also add the corresponding Widgets.
But it doesn’t stop there, this customization is not limited to Apple’s default sections, since you will be able to continue to adjust the font, the text and even remove and add Widgets at will, therefore, everything has more to do with how the information is represented. In this sense, just by taking a look at our wallpaper we will know what awaits us in the next few hours in terms of weather, isn’t it amazing?
Autocorrect improvements, finally
If you’ve listened to our weekly podcast, You’ll know that one of the quiet improvements I most celebrated in iOS 17 is precisely AutoCorrect. Now it’s faster, less invasive and more effective. However, improvements in Spanish are still to come, you know that the first betas are usually focused on English, Apple’s native language.
Anyway, in addition to the above, you will be able to insert with a long press all kinds of content in the text boxes of iOS, from contacts to passwords, for those pesky cases in which you find the iPhone not detecting the password box.
Interactive widgets
It was incomprehensible, but better late than never, Apple has finally improved the Widgets, in particular that of the Home application, now interactive. The functions provided in the control center are now displayed on your screen i.e. you’ll be able to turn all your Apple HomeKit-enabled devices on and off in an instant.
