What’s New
Some of the key iOS 17 features include StandBy mode, NameDrop, Journal, Extended call history, and more. These updates will be available for iPhones later this month.
NameDrop: Now you can easily exchange your contact information by simply bringing your iPhone near someone else’s iPhone or Apple Watch. The same gesture lets you share photos or kick off a SharePlay session.
StandBy Modw: The iOS 17 has a new Standy feature. By turning the iPhone on its side while charging, you get a new full-screen experience with glanceable information designed to view from a distance. You can choose clocks, photos, and widgets to display.
Contact Posters: The Phone app is getting a big update. Now you can customise the profile based on callers and even put your avatar as the lock screen image on the iPhone. Called Contact Posters, the feature works when you get a call from the person for whom you have set up their photo profile. You can also add fonts to personalise the posters even more and the best thing is you can use it for third-party calling apps as well.
Messages: Now you can use search filters to find exactly the message you are looking for and view a transcription of your audio messages.
FaceTime: New video effects give you more ways to express yourself on all video conferencing apps, including FaceTime. You can now make FaceTime calls on Apple TV 4K using Continuity Camera.
Journal: This brand-new app lets you capture your life’s everyday moments and special events by writing about them. Journal also includes scheduled notifications to help build a habit and look back to past events to generate new insights.
