From customized Lock Screens to the iCloud Shared Photo Library, the update further refines the world's most advanced smartphone operating system.

PUTTING THE POWER IN USERS' HANDS

This year's iOS changes might not be as significant or dramatic as they have been in previous years, but it's clear that Apple wants to further refine what it's already made great, rather than tearing up the rule book with major design changes for the sake of it. Taking to the stage at WWDC, Craig Federighi, Apple's senior vice president of Software Engineering, said that this year's release would "change the way you experience iPhone" and that the company had "reimagined how the Lock Screen looks and works with exciting new features that make it more personal and helpful, introduced iCloud Shared Photo Library for families, streamlined communication through new capabilities in Messages and Mail, and harnessed enhanced intelligence with updates to Live Text and Visual Look Up." Combined, iOS 16 gives users hundreds of new tweaks and improvements, and developers are already finding more changes as the beta testing rolls on, including the ability to remove default Apple apps.
