Apple iOS 17: Safari and Passwords

Safari adds greater protection for Private Browsing, both from trackers as a user browses, and from people who might have access to a user’s device. Advanced tracking and fingerprinting protections go even further to help prevent websites from tracking or identifying a user’s device.

Apple iOS 17: Personalise Your Phone Calls

This lets you customise what people see when you call. Express yourself to friends and family with a personalised Contact Poster. Create a poster using your favourite photo or Memoji and pair it with your preferred font.

Apple iOS 17: Live Voicemail

Live Voicemail gives users the ability to see real-time transcription as someone leaves a voicemail, and the opportunity to pick up while the caller is leaving their message.

Apple iOS 17: Messages

New Messages features enhance the way users communicate. An expandable menu that can be accessed with a simple tap to display iMessage apps gives Messages a sleeker look.

Apple iOS 17: Stickers

An all-new stickers experience adds the ability to create Live Stickers by lifting subjects from photos, and users can add effects that will help bring the stickers to life.

Apple iOS 17: FaceTime

FaceTime now supports audio and video messages so when users call someone who is not available, they can share a message that can be enjoyed later.

Apple iOS 17: StandBy

StandBy gives you glanceable information designed to be viewed from a distance. Turn your iPhone into a bedside clock, showcase special moments from your photos, and get the right information at the right time with widget Smart Stacks.

Apple iOS 17: NameDrop and AirDrop

Hold your iPhone near someone else’s iPhone or Apple Watch4 to use NameDrop. You’ll both be able to choose the specific phone numbers or email addresses you want to share, and you can share them along with your Contact Poster instantly. AirDrop makes it easy to share a file with a colleague or send photos to a friend in seconds.

Apple iOS 17: Keyboard

Autocorrect delivers even better support as you type. Autocorrected words are temporarily underlined so you know what’s been changed and you can revert back to the original word with just a tap.

Apple iOS 17: Safari and Passwords

Safari adds greater protection for Private Browsing, both from trackers as a user browses, and from people who might have access to a user’s device. Advanced tracking and fingerprinting protections go even further to help prevent websites from tracking or identifying a user’s device.
