This week, Apple released the biggest software update of the year.

The biggest change to the look of the lock screen in the last three years is included in the new software.

Everyone will be able to get it with an Apple product in the future. The Apple device is the oldest supported one. If you still have that phone, it's time to upgrade.

People with an Apple developer account are able to use the new operating system. The public will be able to try it out next month, and it will be available for everyone in the fall.

There are some changes you should be aware of.

Lock screens can be tailored. Users will be able to add smallerwidgets with real-time data such as the weather forecast on the lock screen, and even change the clock's style for the first time. Some apps will be able to show information such as sports scores or the location of your ride. There are new lock screen wallpaper with images like an interactive planet Earth. The notifications are displayed at the bottom of the screen.

Send and change messages. Changes to the Messages app will be included in the new version of the app. After you send a message to another Apple user, you have 15 minutes to either change it or not. The other user won't get a notification, but will see that the message has been edited or recalled Texts will be marked as unread by users.

Group texting is better with people on the phone. The small thumbs-up, thumbs-down or heart symbol can be added to a text by texting with an Iphone. There is a text that says a user has loved or emphasized a text. The same way as an iMessage, those reactions are attached to text messages in the newios.

Emails should be scheduled for the future. The ability to schedule sending an email for a time in the future is one of the improvements being made to the built-in Mail app.

There are automated ways to sort, edits, translate and share photos. I phones have been able to create photo albums based on where they are. Artificial intelligence is being used to automatically share photos with up to six people based on who is in the picture. For example, if you set it, your partner will get the picture whenever you take a picture of your kid. Artificial intelligence is being added by Apple to translate text in photos and videos. It's possible to cut out a dog, a person or other subject from a photo and place it into images or other apps as a sticker, thanks to the cool artificial intelligence feature.

Apple iPhone Keys in Wallet

There are short-term loans in the Apple wallet. Apple's wallet app, which holds keys, credit cards and other digital passes, continues to be an area of focus for the company. Apple wants the wallet app to replace cash and IDs in your wallet. Apple Pay Later was introduced this year. It's possible to use it to make purchases anywhere Apple Pay is accepted and then pay off the balance over six weeks. It will be easier to share home and car keys through messaging with the new Apple wallet.

Multiple stops can be added to a route. You will be able to add different stops to a route with an update to Apple Maps. Adding their house as the first stop on the way to your destination is anywayanyday. It means you don't have to enter both destinations at the same time. It's essential for people with electric cars who need to find a place to charge their cars. Next year, Apple will release an updated version of its car software, called CarPlay, that will take advantage of the Maps update and more closely integrate with the car's built-in hardware.

There are more ways to manage notifications. Building on last year's Focus mode, Apple will allow users to have different wallpapers or apps for different times of the day, like when the user is at work or sleeping. Users will be able to change which notifications and content are in focus mode with individual apps.

I'll call you back. Soon, you'll be able to hang up a call or video with the help of the computer.

The Home app is getting a new look. Matter is an open standard for smart home hardware and Apple supports it. In order to show things like multiple cameras in and around your house in an easy-to-view side-by-side mode, the Home app has been redesign.

Track your medication and sleep in the app. Users can input how often they take their medication in the health app. Taking a photo of the bottle can be used to add medications. When it's time to take your medicine, the app can remind you. Apple Watch owners will be able to monitor their sleep and heartbeat.

The check is to make sure there is no danger. A new feature called Safety Check allows users to turn off all services and apps in a matter of seconds. Apple said the feature was designed in partnership with women's groups to make it easier to stay private when leaving an abusive relationship.

You can use your mobile device as a camera. The camera on the iPhone can record in 4k or 8k. Wouldn't it be better to use a zoom call instead of using a lower quality camera on your laptop? The Continuity Camera feature in the new version of macOS allows users to use their phone as a camera with a laptop mount.
