Apple launches iOS 18: Find out what's new!
15/04/2024 - 02:20 - Tiago Miguel Magalhães de Abreu
Apple's next major annual update for the iPhone operating system should be called iOS 18. And it seems that this software update should represent a huge evolution with the introduction of new features and visual changes.
Although there are no confirmations yet, there are already several rumors circulating about the version that will succeed iOS 17. iServices has gathered all the information that is circulating and tells you everything in this article.
When will iOS 18 be released?
Apple usually announces its news, such as a new version of iOS, at the annual WWDC conference. An event that this year takes place on June 10th. And following the Apple brand line, the launch of iOS should take place in September 2024.
What's New in iOS 18
According to Bloomberg journalist Mark Gurman, known for revealing all Apple news in advance, the new update is considered “ambitious”.
The same journalist also reveals that Apple took a break from developing the system to focus on fixing bugs.
Artificial Intelligence on iPhone
It seems that Artificial Intelligence will even be present on the iPhone with iOS 18. With Siri being the main beneficiary, being able to respond to human indications in the same way that ChatGPT does. There is also a rumor that a partnership may be closed with Google to include Gemini in this update.
Still in this chapter of news, messages can also gain an important reinforcement with AI having the possibility of creating and correcting texts. Another possibility is editing images and videos with this feature.
Improved RCS messages
The incorporation of the RCS protocol into the messaging application has already been confirmed to facilitate communication with Android Smartphones. In this way, this technology, which is a kind of successor to SMS, will make it possible to send photos, videos, GIFs, links and texts between different systems.
Visual change on iOS
There are still no guarantees of visual changes to the icons, making them rounder, for example. However, what has been gaining strength is the possibility for iPhone users to be able to place an application icon wherever they want. Instead of the current obligation of “no blank spaces in the queues”.
Which iPhones will receive iOS 18?
Still without an official list, let's use Apple's update cycle as a basis for thinking. Based on the offer of updates up to 5 years from the launch of each cell phone, it is possible to predict that iPhones launched in 2018 will not receive this update.
So, here is the likely list of iPhones that should update with iOS 18:
- iPhone SE 2020
- iPhone SE 2022
- iPhone 11
- iPhone 11 Pro
- iPhone 11 Pro Max
- iPhone 12
- iPhone 12 Mini
- iPhone 12 Pro
