IOS 17. The new version of iOS 17 presented this Monday as part of the Apple Keynote should add some new features to your iPhone. Find out its official release date and if your iPhone is compatible with iOS 17.
iOS 17 should be made available to the public within the next few months. But before seeing this new versions on your iPhone, Apple must officially unveil it this Monday, June 5 as part of its Keynote. The conference, which promises to be rich in announcements, would plan to discuss the new features to come for iOS 17. Find out what changes this version will bring to your smartphone, its release date and if your iPhone is compatible with iOS 17.
What’s new in iOS 17?
If the previous iOS update had made a small upheaval in your wallpapers, iOS 17 should be less rich in new features… At least in appearance. According to several leaks, the next version of iOS 17 would put more emphasis on the quality of life and health of users. A decision that would make sense since Apple has already unveiled a very practical function for people who lose their voice: “Personal Voice tool”. This addition allows in particular to create a synthetic voice to answer your interlocutors.
A digital health record
Among the big new features coming with iOS 17 are several reports of a built-in iPhone health record. This new application (integrated in the “Health” part of the device?) should allow you to write down your states and health and thoughts every day in order to monitor your state. The iPhone would even suggest different discussions around your physical and mental health concerns.
The arrival of new app stores
iOS 17 would mark a big step in the history of the iPhone by further opening up Apple’s ecosystem. Several restrictions related to the European Union should oblige the firm to allow the installation of new application stores on the iPhone. It would therefore be possible to find alternative stores to the famous App Store within your device. Former users of smartphones Android would certainly be delighted to find the Google Play Store on their new iPhone.
The return of the horizontal screen on the iPhone
Older iPhones had a feature that many users miss. By simply turning your device to horizontal format, the iPhone would switch apps as is already the case on many Android smartphones. Apple could well reintegrate this function, forgotten for several years on the iPhone.
What is the release date of iOS 17?
iOS 17 is officially presented this Monday, June 5 around 7 p.m. Apple plans to unveil its new operating systems during its WWDC (Worldwide Developers Conference) Keynote conference. The first beta versions should therefore be available within a few days on the various iPhones compatible with iOS 17.
iOS 17 should be available by the end of 2023 for all compatible iPhones in stable version. The latest version of iOS was notably offered to the general public last September, a few days before the release of the latest iPhone 14.
Is my iPhone compatible with iOS 17?
The new version of iOS 17 is notably the one planned for the new iPhone 15 to come at the end of 2023. But what about older versions of the iPhone? If Apple sticks to its usual updates, here are the different iPhones compatible with iOS 17:
- The entire future iPhone 15 range.

- iPhone SE 2 and iPhone SE 3.
- iPhone 13 and its different versions.
- iPhone 12 and its different versions.

If your iPhone does not automatically offer you the update to iOS 17, it is certainly because the latter is not yet available to the general public. We’ll be sure to update this article with the first beta of iOS 17 as soon as it’s officially released.
