What Your Iphone Knows About You Ios11
Apple'southward iOS 11 is finally hither, and while they showed off several of the new features it brings to your iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch on back at WWDC 2017, they've just but touched the surface of what iOS eleven has to offer. In that location are a lot of cool new (and sometimes secret) features to explore, then we've collected them all here for yous.
From a new screen recorder to persistent notifications, a dark way, and fun new note tools, the list goes on. Some of the stuff we wanted actually showed up, and we've attempted to find everything new that's absurd about iOS 11 right hither.
Before diving into the full listing of features, if you want to get some hands-on experience with them, brand sure you have installed the new iOS 11 on your iPhone.
i. There's a New Hidden Nighttime Mode Pick
While it's not the Dark Fashion nosotros wanted it to be, information technology's the next best thing. Just caput to your "Display Accommodations" and turn on "Smart Invert." More info on this flim-flam is bachelor at the following link.
2. You Can Share Wi-Fi Passwords with Nearby Devices
No more than practise you accept to endeavor and type out long, complicated passwords on your iPhone. Now you tin simply ask someone already continued to the network to share their password with you over the air — no typing involved. Every bit long as both devices are running iOS 11, information technology'll work (and macOS Loftier Sierra is fifty-fifty supported).
three. You lot Can Draw on Your Screenshots
Apple assumes virtually people who accept screenshots will want to edit them correct away, so they added a quick markup feature for screenshots. Simply take a screenshot, then tap on the thumbnail in the bottom left, which brings up the edit page where y'all can describe using any number of tools. The thumbnail is invisible in other screenshots, so you can even so rapid fire screenshot like you unremarkably would. (You can swipe the thumbnail to the left to get rid of information technology faster if it annoys you lot.)
iv. The Control Center Is 1 Page Now
Just like we hoped, Apple made the Control Centre a single folio again, instead of the clunky 2-folio version in iOS x. Everything gets its ain little department, and you can use 3D Impact to expand and interact with well-nigh of these options.
five. And It'southward Customizable
This was another big item from our wish listing, and it's a expert start to customizing the Command Centre. In the settings, you can add, remove, and rearrange options in the pull-up carte du jour, only you're limited to Apple apps and services, which means no 3rd-party app integration. Hopefully, this will come in the hereafter, only we're not betting on it.
Airplane Mode, Cellular Data, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, AirDrop, Personal Hotspot, Rotation Lock, Do Not Disturb, AirPlay, and the Music controls are all non-customizable, meaning they you can't remove any of them.
6. The Flashlight Has Another Intensity Option
If y'all 3D Touch (or long-press) on the flashlight icon in the Control Centre, you'll notice that instead of three intensity options (low, medium, high), at that place'south a fourth one. The names have been removed, so you'll merely accept to guess at what the 4th one is called.
7. You lot Can Screen Record Without Your Mac
Subconscious in the Control Center's customizable settings, there's a new Screen Recording option. That means yous no longer need QuickTime on your reckoner or some shitty third-party app that doesn't piece of work well (or at all).
Simply add the option to your Control Centre, then tap on the icon to start recording. If you long-press or 3D Touch on it, y'all tin enable the microphone, also. You can turn information technology off the same way, or via the red condition bar indicator. Then all you take to do is tap on the notification that it was recorded and begin editing out the stuff you lot don't want.
8. Airplane Mode Remembers
Previously, when you toggled Airplane Mode on, off, and then on again from the Control Center, it wouldn't call back if you lot had enabled Bluetooth or Wi-Fi while Airplane Mode was on. Now, in iOS eleven, Aeroplane Fashion will remember your settings and then you don't have to re-enable Bluetooth and/or Wi-Fi when turning Airplane Way off and dorsum on over again.
9. The Music Role player Foursquare Has a Source Icon
There's a two-arced icon (like a Wi-Fi icon without the pie slice) in the top correct of the music player in the Control Middle. Tapping on this icon will shoot you lot quickly to the list of output sources available. When you're connected to an output source like an Apple Goggle box, speakers, or even QuickTime on your Mac, it will change to an animated blue icon.
10. And More from the Control Middle
Bated from the default iOS 10 options in the Control Heart, at that place'south as well Cellular Information, Personal Hotspot, Screen Recording, Alarm, Do Not Disturb While Driving, Notes, Accessibility Shortcuts, Apple Tv Remote, Guided Access, Depression Power Mode, Magnifier, Stopwatch, Text Size, and Voice Memos. There's likewise the Wallet shortcut, which may or may not work better for you than the double-click option for passes.
11. Y'all Don't Need 3D Affect for Command Center Quick Deportment
If y'all take an iPhone that doesn't come with 3D Bear on, you're not left out in the cold again when it comes to quick actions. You lot can now long printing on almost any icon in the Control Eye to bring upward the same quick actions that 3D Bear on users get. This ways yous can now conform flashlight intensity, among other things. Unfortunately, this long-press feature for older iPhones is only available in this card, non on the habitation screen or elsewhere.
12. In that location's a One-Handed Keyboard
Realizing that many iPhone users (like myself) have flocked over to third-political party keyboards, Apple finally added a significant improvement to bring anybody back — a one-handed typing fashion. This but squishes the stock keyboard over the left or right side and then you lot can blazon without stretching your thumb out also far. Now they but need to add swipe typing.
13. Y'all Can Send/Receive Apple Pay Cash (Coming in iOS 11.2)
At that place's a new feature called Apple Pay Cash that lets yous easily send money via your debit or credit card (or Apple Pay Cash residuum) to friends and family via the Letters app. When they receive it, they tin make Utilise Pay purchases or transfer to their depository financial institution. People can as well transport you money so yous can do the same, and you lot can fifty-fifty asking them to ship y'all money in Letters. This feature is currently in the iOS eleven.2 beta 2, and should be released in the iOS 11.2 terminal version.
14. In that location'southward ARKit for Augmented Reality
One of the most heady things that iOS 11 is bringing to the iPhone is ARKit, a new framework for developers to build augmented reality experiences in apps and games. This framework lets developers utilize motility tracking, surface detection, and ambience light detection capabilities on the iPhone without any additional hardware, as long the device has an A9 processor or higher. All of this ways more augmented reality madness for your iPhone in iOS xi, and so you're not just stuck playing Pokémon GO forever.
15. The iMessage App Drawer Looks Better
While we're in the Messages app, let'southward talk virtually the App Store for iMessage. It looks style cleaner, slimmed down to a tiny row at the bottom which is expandable when you lot need it.
16. In that location's New Screen Furnishings for iMessages
If yous love Balloons and Confetti in your iMessages, you lot're going to beloved the new Echo and Spotlight screen furnishings that the Messages app has in iOS 11. Not much more than to say here. Just seem them in action below.
17. Messages Can Be Stored in iCloud (Coming Shortly)
Yep, this means that all of your messages on your iPhone can finally really be synced with your letters on your Mac. Previously, it was a big mess, and messages you deleted on your iPhone would non delete on your Mac besides. This is a huge privacy business, manifestly, and so this is a nice add-on. However, it probably won't appear until at least macOS Loftier Sierra is released, since you tin't enable the option in macOS Sierra.
18. The App Store Got a Huge Update
The iOS App Store is taking a queue from the Apple tree Music look with its new redesign. It's got a "Today" view jam-packed with information on new apps and in-app purchases, stories, and even how-tos. Apps and games also get their own tabs, and ratings and reviews gained new precedence. Developers tin even respond to reviews at present, which may or may non be a good affair, depending on how you look at it. You can meet all of the new iOS App Shop features in the link below.
nineteen. You lot Can Disable In-App Prompts for Ratings & Reviews
While Apple tree was already readying this new ratings and review system back in iOS 10.three, the system-wide toggle to disable feedback requests within apps merely appears in a few betas here and there. At present, it's dorsum in iOS 11 (hopefully for expert).
20. You Can Disable Auto-Playing Videos in the App Store
When you open an app or game'south App Store page, if information technology has a trailer it will automatically start playing the video, simply y'all tin easily foreclose that from happening past turning it off or changing it to "Wi-Fi Simply."
21. At that place's a File Manager App
Touted as an iPad feature during WWDC, Files, Apple's new file managing director app, is also on the iPhone. If you tin't find your iCloud Drive app, it's because it's at present a office of Files. If yous have Google Drive, Dropbox, and Box installed, you lot'll be able to see those in the Files app besides, and more third-political party cloud storage services will be supported in the future.
22. You Can Scan QR Codes in the Camera App
Say adieu to all of your QR code apps, because you don't need them anymore. Apple congenital a QR code scanner right into the Camera app, and so all you have to do is point your camera at a QR lawmaking and it will prompt y'all with what to do next, whether information technology'southward opening up a link in Safari, adding a number to your contacts, or joining a Wi-Fi network.
23. There'due south a Hidden Camera Level
While it's non on by default, the Camera app does have a new superpower that helps you take better overhead-view photos and fifty-fifty skyward pics. Crosshairs will appear to help you properly level the iPhone so you get perfect pics either straight downward or directly up. To see how to unlock this characteristic, check out the following guide.
24. Portrait Manner Works with OIS, HDR & Flash
For some reason, Apple omitted these options with Portrait mode on the iPhone 7 Plus, but iOS 11 adds back up for them. Optical image stabilization is always on now, and you can use either the high dynamic range option or flash when taking "Depth Outcome" portraits.
25. And Portrait Mode Hides the Normal Photo
When yous take a photo using Portrait Mode'south depth result in iOS ten, the normal photo is saved as a split up file in your Photos app (unless you lot toggle that option off). Now, in iOS eleven, it hides the normal photo behind the depth result so in that location'southward only one image showing in your Photos app. Information technology's very similar to how disabling the Live Photo upshot works.
26. There Are New Formats for Pics & Videos
Previously, the Camera app would shoot pictures in JPEG and videos in H.264. Well, in iOS xi, Apple has bumped that upwards to compression formats that can relieve you twice as much infinite (up to ii times ameliorate compression). The new HEIF (High Efficiency Image Format) volition take the place of the old JPEG files, while videos will exist using the H.265 video coding format. Of class, you tin disable this in the Camera settings if you want.
27. GIFs Are Finally Supported in Photos
Previously, whatever GIFs yous saved to your iPhone would testify upward as nonetheless images in the Photos app, only not anymore. They will animate now and volition appear in an automatic "Animated" anthology.
28. You Can Drag & Drib Images into New Albums
The iPad doesn't get all of the fun. There are a few elevate-and-drop features available for iPhones in iOS 11, and i of them adds the ability to motility a photo or group of photos from one album to some other in the Photos app.
29. The People Album Syncs Across Devices
If you only have one device connected to iCloud, this isn't such a large bargain. However, if yous exercise, you'll exist glad to know that the automated "People" album that Apple creates for you will sync across all devices at present.
thirty. You Tin can Select a However Image for Live Photos
Previously, the simply way to select the withal image yous wanted to use for Live Photos was to use a third-party app similar Google'south Motion Stills app. It was a large bargain, since sending a Live Photograph to a friend on Android wouldn't evidence what you actually wanted to show. At present, Apple has fixed this. Only tap on the Edit icon at the lesser, so elevate the cover photo frame on the slider to wherever you lot want. Tap on "Make Key Photo" to prepare information technology, and so "Done" to finalize.
31. You lot Can Also Trim Alive Photos
From the aforementioned edit menu just mentioned above, yous can also trim Live Photos. Just press and concur on one of the ends of the slider, trim to your liking, and hit "Washed" to finalize. You tin can ever revert the changes afterward by entering the edit menu again.
32. In that location Are New Loop & Bounce Live Photo Effects
If the previous two Live Photos features weren't enough, Apple also added a couple absurd movement effects for Live Photos — Loop and Bounciness. The former loops information technology like a normal GIF would, and the latter just bounces the video back and forth endlessly.
33. There Are Long Exposures!
Okay, and so it'due south not a long exposure feature in the Camera app, but it'due south even so absurd. But set up the scene you'd like to take a long exposure for, snap the pic with Live Photo enabled, then edit information technology just similar yous would for the Loop and Bounciness effects, only this fourth dimension select the Long Exposure option. Pretty sweet, right?
34. You lot Tin can Transport Android Users Some Live Photos
While sending a regular Alive Photo from an iPhone via MMS will still result in a notwithstanding prototype for Android users, the Alive Photos with Loop or Bounce effects volition be sent every bit MP4 files. Right now, this is pretty buggy, and we had a small success charge per unit, but information technology's the starting time of something adept.
35. And Plough Them into GIFs via Mail
Just similar the to a higher place tip, if y'all transport a Live Photo with a Loop or Bounce effect via the Post app, it will automatically be converted to a GIF file that any recipient tin see. Now we'd simply love the ability to turn regular Live Photos every bit GIFs, since Live Photos sent via Mail volition still but be a even so JPEG paradigm.
36. GIFs & Live Photograph Effects Get Thier Own Album
Like mentioned to a higher place in the department on newly added GIF back up, there is a new anthology that'southward automatically created in the Photos app called "Animated." If you have any GIFs, loops, or bounces, they will all show upwardly here.
37. Memories Videos Get Optimized Portrait View
You could always rotate your iPhone'south screen and watch a Memories video in either landscape or portrait mode, but the video would not exist optimized for the new orientation. Now, in iOS 11, the video looks skillful no matter what orientation you're watching it in.
38. And In that location Are More Memories
Apple uses auto learning to assistance create even more memories for you to relish in the Photos app. New additions include weddings, birthdays, pets, babies, outdoor activities, performances, and sporting events.
39. You Can Take Live Photos in FaceTime
Only like you tin can take pictures while shooting video in the Camera app, you can snap screenshots of video calls in the FaceTime app. Not only that, they aren't normal screenshots — they're Live Photos. Both users on the FaceTime video phone call need to be running iOS xi for this to work.
40. FaceTime Has a New Approachable Ringtone
The default ringtone that you would hear when calling someone on FaceTime was fairly high-pitched (and annoying) before. Now it'south more subtle and deep.
41. It'southward Easier to Save & Mark Up PDFs Now
Y'all could previously salvage webpages, notes, photos, and other files equally PDF files and marker them up afterward, simply information technology was kind of a pain in the donkey — especially for adding markup. iOS xi has simplified this with a "Markup every bit PDF" button in the share sheet, which is much faster all effectually.
42. You Can Make Notifications Persistent
While I'm non sure who exactly would want to enable this feature, I'k sure in that location are a few good utilize-cases for needing to take those banner notifications you get stay at that place until y'all dismiss them. If that sounds like something you lot want, information technology's pretty easy to set up in your Notification settings for apps that support banners.
43. And Disable Notification Previews for All Apps
Previously, you could but disable notification previews on your lock screen or Encompass Sheet (aka Notifications Heart) for select Apple apps, but iOS xi just opened information technology up to every app on your device. When enabled, y'all'll nevertheless get the notification, only the body of it will simply say "Notification" and that'due south it.
44. You Can Block Apps from Your Notifications History
Another absurd change to the notifications system is that you lot tin block individual apps from showing up in the "Recent Notifications" that announced on the Embrace Sail from a locked or unlocked state. You volition all the same get notifications on your lock screen, only they won't make it into the "Earlier Today," "Yesterday," etc. sections.
45. 32-Scrap Apps No Longer Work
Okay, this may sound like a negative thing to y'all, simply to me, information technology gives me a reason to finally get rid of all the apps that are no longer working anyway. Most of the apps that haven't been updated to 64-bit apps just don't function like they used to, and I never utilise them anyway.
46. There's Indoor Maps for Malls & Airports
If yous've ever had a hard time finding a public restroom in a shopping mall or airport, you'll appreciate this. Apple Maps now has indoor maps for the floor plans of malls and airports — they even work on different levels. Nosotros haven't seen any locations around us supported yet, but hopefully before long!
47. Navigation in Maps Now Has Lane Guidance & Speed Indicator
Apple wants to make sure you don't miss your exit next fourth dimension, or get pulled over for a speeding ticket when you missed that tricky speed limit sign fashion dorsum at that place. Speed limit indicators are just available for certain roads, but information technology'south a decent starting time.
48. And In that location's Do Non Disturb While Driving
Mayhap the biggest Maps addition in iOS 11 is the "Exercise Non Disturb While Driving" fashion. It will automatically kick in when it senses that you're driving or when you're connected to your car's Bluetooth. You can even toggle information technology on or off via the new Control Center icon. Anyone in your favorites list will get a message that lets them know you lot're driving, and they tin break through that barrier past following up with "urgent" as a text.
49. You Can Zoom Maps with Just Your Pollex
Zooming in was e'er pretty easy to do with 1 thumb only since you lot can just double-tap on the Maps screen to exercise and then. But zooming out was the tricky part. There was no way to do this using only ane finger, but iOS xi has fixed that. Just double-tap and concur, then move your finger upward on the screen to zoom in and downwards to zoom out.
50. And Go Light Guidance During Navigation
If yous've ever found Maps almost nagging navigational directions abrasive, y'all can now slim up those baby steps and "tap for lite guidance," which gives y'all an overview of your bulldoze instead of the step-past-pace view. Y'all could e'er zoom out before, but when a new turn came up, you'd go kicked back into step-by-step mode. This new one keeps you zoomed out no affair what.
51. There Are Virtual Reality 'Flyover' Cities
Apple has included a "Flyover" feature in Maps e'er since iOS half-dozen, and a "City Tours" characteristic since iOS viii. Just now, in iOS 11, yous get the best of both worlds in virtual reality. With the assistance of ARKit, you lot can spin your iPhone around to navigate a city in VR, and it gets even more impressive if you have a VR headset.
52. Emergency SOS Is Now Finally on iPhones
While the Apple Scout got some Emergency SOS love already, as well as some iOS 10 betas, the iPhone feature has simply been live in India so far. Now, it looks like iOS 11 is making it available to everyone in the United states. This feature lets you click the slumber/wake (aka power) button v times fast to outset a call to 911, and y'all have the option to ready emergency contacts that will get constant text updates as to your location.
53. And Information technology Doubles as a 'Cop Button'
If you're scared of ever having to use your fingerprint to unlock your iPhone because of warrant that police force enforcement could present to you, Apple tree has you covered. Whether intentional or not, when you initiate Emergency SOS, iOS xi automatically disables your Bear on ID, and the just fashion you tin can become it back up again is to input your passcode.
54. iPhone-to-Computer Security Is Meliorate
When you connect an iPhone to a new computer, iTunes volition inquire y'all to click on "Go on" to let the computer to admission information on the iPhone. Once done, a prompt on your iPhone will ask you to either "Trust" or "Don't Trust" the computer. This is how it works on iOS eleven and previous versions of iOS. However, iOS eleven added a new security feature that also requests that you input your passcode on your iPhone earlier continuing — even if your iPhone is already unlocked.
55. The Passcode Screen Is Slightly Different
Not a huge change, but the passcode screen on the lock screen looks a picayune different with buttons that stand out a trivial more than before.
56. The Figurer Got a New Await
Some other minor visual change, but the Calculator got a new habitation screen icon and the app itself is now based on circular buttons rather than squares. The colors are still the same, merely blackness covers more of the background.
57. And Then Did a Agglomeration of App Icons
Aside from the new Calculator app icon, a few other stock Apple apps got refreshed, including Contacts, App Store, Camera, Maps, Notes, Reminders, iTunes Store, and iCloud Bulldoze (now Files). Other stock apps got either minimal icon updates or none at all.
58. You Can Movement Multiple Items at In one case
It's now easier than ever to organize your home screen. When you lot go into edit way on the dwelling house screen, you can hold one app or binder, then tap others to bring together it in a group move. So you lot simply move the grouping to a binder, the dock, or another home screen folio and let become. Pretty awesome. If y'all have an iPad Pro with the new elevate and driblet feature, you tin select multiple things to drag and drop at the aforementioned fourth dimension, just similar with home screen icons.
59. The Apps in the Dock Have No Text
Some of the all-time "glitches" in older iOS versions were the ones that allow you remove app and folder labels on the home screen. If the icon itself cannot visually explain what the app is, and then the programmer should become a improve designer. That's how I e'er thought of it. Even with folders, you can tell what folders there are by the apps in them. It'southward only a much cleaner look overall.
And then, while iOS xi hasn't enabled this as an bodily choice yet, Apple has started the process past removing the text for apps and folders in the Dock.
60. There'south No More Home Screen in the App Switcher
Why did we ever need a folio for the domicile screen in the App Switcher anyway? Thankfully, iOS 11 removed information technology, and then to go dorsum to your home screen, simply press the dwelling push or tap on the groundwork in the App Switcher.
61. The Battery Icon Looks Slightly Better
I guess this is up for fence, but the battery icon in the status bar looks a tad scrap better.
62. There's Another Way to Power Downward
While you could power down your iPhone with AssistiveTouch previously, it'southward non that great of an option if you don't take another use for the Accessibility setting. Now, iOS 11 has fixed that issue, giving united states of america a third way to power down when we need information technology, and it's right in the Settings menu.
63. There's Also Another Way to Restart
Speaking of AssistiveTouch, Apple has added a quick style to restart your iPhone using the AssistiveTouch menu. So if you need to restart your iPhone and don't want to power information technology down then manually turn it back on, or worse all the same — use the "Assuming Text" trick and exist stuck with assuming text everywhere — then you lot tin can do so right on your screen.
64. In that location Are More New AssistiveTouch Options
In the new AssistiveTouch bill of fare, you can non merely restart your iPhone at present, simply yous can access the app switcher, enable Emergency SOS, use Apple Pay, or even showtime Reachability mode.
65. Your iPhone Can Automatically Answer Calls
The next time you lot're cooking nutrient and have dirty hands, y'all won't need to quickly rinse them off to accept a new phone call — your iPhone tin automatically answer it for yous and put it on speakerphone. There are only a few Accessibility settings to tweak to get this upward and running.
66. You Tin Finally Type to Siri
We're not sure why this feature wasn't congenital in sooner, but later changing i simple Accessibility setting, you tin turn the home screen shortcut for Siri from talking to typing just. If yous yet want to talk to Siri, you lot can just use the "Hey, Siri" command, then you've got the best of both worlds.
67. Siri Can Translate English to Other Languages
Siri tin now translate English to Chinese, German, Italian, French, and Spanish, then if you ever demand to inquire someone something while you're traveling abroad, you can only have Siri ask them. You can't have another language translated into English language just still, just hopefully that's coming.
68. There Are Siri Suggestions
Siri can offer up personalized recommendations to you in Safari, Maps, Letters, and News, based off your usage in other apps. If someone asks you how far away y'all are in Messages, Siri might suggest the exact reply in miles or minutes based on your current location. To read more than about how this works, check out our Siri roundup:
69. Siri Sounds More Natural
Information technology doesn't sound like much, but if yous've ever used Siri earlier, you'll know only how much better she (or he) sounds now in iOS eleven. Siri's new male and female voices are more natural and expressive, adjusting intonation, pitch, emphasis, and tempo every bit they speak.
70. Third-Party Apps Get Siri Integration
Nosotros haven't seen this one in the works just notwithstanding, but Siri will be able to help you out in apps such equally OmniFocus 2, Evernote, Citi Mobile, Things 3, and WeChat. More apps volition surely be added to this listing in the coming months.
71. In that location Are Recommendations for Saving Storage Space
In the updated storage management system, Apple tree now gives you recommendations on means to free upwardly space on your iPhone, like auto-deleting old conversations in Letters, emptying your "Recently Deleted" album in Photos, or storing your messages in iCloud.
72. You Can 'Offload' Apps to Save Storage Space
One of the recommendations above, as you could probably tell, is to "Offload Unused Apps." This setting lets you lot delete apps that you're not using off your iPhone while retaining the documents and data for them so yous can download the apps once more later when you lot demand them — without having to start from scratch. And then, when you starting time running out of space, your iPhone will ditch unused apps to free upward space. You can as well set this for apps individually if you want.
73. Yous Can Delete Message Attachments Easier
Too in the new storage direction organization is the ability to review and delete all of the attachments in your Messages app. Y'all can sort past photos, videos, GIFs and stickers, and everything remaining. So just delete away as necessary.
74. The Special Facebook & Twitter Integration Are Gone
That might sound similar a bad thing, only it's really for the best. Facebook, Twitter, Flickr, and Vimeo no longer become special treatment in the Settings app. After all, how many of you actually found this useful? Instead of the deafult login options for these iv apps, they will at present work just like any other tertiary-party app in iOS — by utilizing the share sheet menu.
75. You Tin Track Flights in Safari
If yous need to proceed rails of a friend or family unit member's flight, you can do so now correct from Safari without a ton of piece of work.

Tap on the details carte du jour to see more info nearly the flying, like its current route.
76. And Even Define Words
Some web searches in Safari will bring up Wikipedia cards or suggest websites with need-to-know info displayed right away — earlier you lot even hit the "Go" button. Just if it'south just a definition you're looking for, iOS xi's Safari added a dictionary menu if you lot add the discussion "define" to your search. It uses the New Oxford American Dictionary, so words similar zyzzyva won't prove upwardly, but the suggested website given tin can commonly fill in those gaps. Plus, it does a decent job at predicting what you want!
77. Safari'southward Video Role player Looks Amend
While the video controls in iOS 10's Safari weren't horrible, they look much better now, taking upwardly less infinite over the video. The new volume slider for total-screen videos is a large plus, which shows but as a speaker icon until you use the hardware volume buttons or long-press on the icon, which brings upwardly the slider.
78. Safari Prevents Cross-Site Tracking
If you're worried about advertisers tracking y'all in Safari, iOS xi has you covered. With Apple tree's machine learning, Safari can intelligently prevent websites from tracking you using data gathered from other sites. This feature is enabled by default in Safari'southward settings.
79. Safari Simplifies Cookie Blocking
As you tin also encounter in the screenshot above, there'southward a new option for "Cake New Cookies and Data" in Safari. In previous iOS versions, it was labeled as a carte for "Cake Cookies" which included options like E'er Block, Let from Electric current Websites Only,Allow from Websites I Visit, and Always Allow. If yous never knew which option to choose, well, at present you merely have one.
fourscore. Scrolling Works Better in Safari
For some reason, unlike in other stock apps, when you swiped to scroll on a webpage in previous versions of Safari, one swipe or picture wouldn't become you very far. At present, in iOS 11, that swipe or pic has actual inertia, then you tin control how fast or slow yous scroll on a folio.
81. You lot Tin can Add Tables in Notes
One cool new addition to the Notes app is tables, something that wasn't possible before. The tables themselves are pretty simple looking, but that'south all they demand to be. Plus, there'southward lots yous can do in them, like edit entire rows and columns at the same time, format text, delete info, etc.
82. Locking Notes Is Easier
When you swipe left on a note in your binder of notes, at that place'due south an extra choice to "Lock Note." Previously, y'all would take to lock the note via the share sheet icon, only now it's equally easy as swiping and tapping.
83. You Can Pin Notes to the Top
While on the subject field of swiping notes, if yous swipe right there is an pick to pin a note to the top of your binder. This is great for something you're always accessing, like a grocery shopping list or a weekly/monthly budget.
84. You Can Add together Inline Drawings in Notes
You could always jot down little drawings in a notation, but now you can do information technology without opening a new sketch window. That means you tin can make your sketches right inside the notation while existence able to look at the residual of your note in the process.
85. And Browse Documents into Notes Using Your Camera
Another big Notes feature is the power to scan documents directly into notes using the camera. Information technology even helps you make sure the document is straight and then you get a make clean scan every fourth dimension.
86. In that location Are Also More Formatting Options in Notes
iOS 11 makes it easier to access the formatting tools inside notes with a cleaner, more intuitive interface. There are fifty-fifty a few new options bachelor such every bit strikethrough and monospaced text.
87. The Mail App Has a New Look
Okay, it's not that huge of a deviation, but the new Search bar definitely looks better.
