Apple has introduced iOS 17 with significant modifications to its Messages app. These changes include a more efficient design, advanced security features, and the integration of stickers and Memojis.
The Messages interface has undergone a major revamp in iOS 17. The composition window now has a "+" button that combines all Messages tools and apps into a vertical dropdown list, departing from the previous horizontal layout. This new design is visually appealing and simplifies the identification of each function with larger icons and textual descriptions.
Under iOS 17, all emojis are now categorized as stickers. This means they can be dragged and positioned anywhere within a message, even overlapping. Additionally, custom stickers can be created by selecting a photo, cropping the subject, and applying various effects. These features make conversations more fun and personalized.
Memojis, the customizable avatars introduced by Apple, have also been updated in iOS 17. New expressions like the halo, wink gesture, and "peekaboo" gesture have been incorporated, allowing for more customization options.
Additionally, all stickers now have their own section within the Messages app, making it easier to find and store frequently used stickers and created ones. One notable feature of iOS 17 is the "Check In" function, which allows users to inform others about a trip and share updates, location, battery level, and network status.
This feature prioritizes safety and peace of mind for both users and their loved ones. It can be used to notify someone of arrival at school, work, home, or a planned meeting.
In iOS 17, audio messages can be automatically transcribed to text, allowing for easy reading when playing the message out loud is not possible. Additionally, messages containing codes can be set to automatically delete once the code has been used.
The new "Catch-Up" feature displays an indicator when there are unread messages after a period of inactivity, allowing users to jump directly to the first unread message. A "swipe to reply" function has also been added for direct responses, and the search tool has been improved with multiple filters for easier searching. Sharing locations and requesting a friend's location can now be done directly from the Messages app without opening the Maps app.
iOS 17 has significantly improved the user experience in the Messages app with a cleaner design and enhanced functionalities. These innovations demonstrate Apple's commitment to providing useful and updated tools with each operating system update.
