9 Huge Upgrades Coming With The iPhone 7

8. iOSX

Not so much is known about what Apple will do with its next major software upgrade €“ only that it's coming, and it should be big. It might not launch at exactly the same time as the iPhone 7 €“ depending on Apple's strategy €“ but the two are sure to form part of a higher plan. IOS updates 8 and 9 were all about improving the substantive functionality of iDevices across the board, building on the visual overhaul offered by iOS7. Will the 10th iteration of Apple's iSoftware change the look of things again? It seems unlikely, particularly as MacBook software becomes ever more homologous with the iPhone platform. What, then, is there to expect from iOS 10? For one thing, it could be iOS X. Whether Apple will take the numeral route remains to be seen, not least given the potential for confusion with its existing Mac interface €“ unless, of course, that's exactly what it wants: rumours have been swirling for a while about the potential of a single system across all Apple hardware, Windows 10-like. In terms of functional improvements, expect Siri to receive yet another power boost, alongside better 3D Touch integration, a bigger push for Apple News, and refinements to the notification and control centre experience. Could iOS 10 be the one to finally giver users customisation options? That one's in the lap of the gods.
