It seems that the new products that Apple will introduce in 2023 will not only consist of hardware products. The company may launch multiple software and hardware focused products in 2023. It is very likely that new software will be showcased at WWDC 22, which is expected to be held in June.
Among the allegations, there are many striking allegations. The one of these claims about iOS 17 is of particular interest to iPhone users. Here are the allegations…
1) APPLE WATCH’S BLOOD SUGAR TRACKING
Mark Gurman thinks that blood glucose monitoring technology designed for the Apple Watch is unlikely to be available in a few years.
In February, Gurman reported that Apple had made major advances in noninvasive blood glucose monitoring technology, allowing diabetics and others to test their blood sugar levels without having to prick the skin for blood testing.
Gurman said in his newsletter that Apple “still needs to perfect the algorithms and onboard sensors” to bring the technology to market. More importantly, the company is said to need to “shrink it down to a module size that can fit into something small and thin like the Apple Watch.” Gurman believes this process will take “at least three to seven more years”.
2) MIXED REALITY HEADLINE
Again, according to the claim of Mark Gurman in his news, Apple introduced the mixed reality headset to the company’s top 100 executives at the famous Steve Jobs Theater in Apple Park last week. In the latest issue of his newsletter, Gurman said this “significant meeting” marked an “important milestone” ahead of the headline’s announcement, scheduled for June.
It seems like senior Apple executives have been taking a peek at the hood every year since 2018, but these demonstrations allegedly went no further than a showcase of the entire device, but rather a glimpse into the progress of the project. The last preview at the Steve Jobs Theater is claimed to be a much more important event.
“START APPROXIMATELY 3,000 DOLLARS”
While anticipation for the device’s launch is growing within Apple, Gurman added that the device is likely to launch with a few potential issues. Here are Gurman’s statements:
“Furthermore, the device will start at around $3,000, lack a clear favorite app, require an external battery that needs to be replaced every few hours, and uses a design that some testers found offensive. It’s also likely to be released with limited media content.”
As a result, Apple executives are said to have “set a realistic tone within the company” with the understanding that “it won’t be a hit product right out the door.”
Gurman thinks the first version of the device will “seem like a fiasco next to the company’s current products,” but will still “make Apple the market leader in mixed reality within a few months.”
CLAIM: “SOME APPLE EMPLOYEES HAVE SERIOUS CONCERNS!” SO WHY?
According to the report in The New York Times, some Apple employees are worried about the usefulness and price of the mixed reality headset that the company will release soon.
3) REMARKABLE iOS 17 CLAIM!
Again, according to Mark Gurman’s claim, Apple changed the strategy of iOS 17 later in the development process, adding a few new features. This is also said to indicate that the update may be more important than previously thought. So iOS 17 may be an important update with changes.
Back in January, Gurman said that iOS 17 could be a less significant update than iPhone updates in previous years, given the company’s heavy focus on the long-awaited mixed reality headset.
In his latest bulletin, Gurman explained that a strategy change made during the update’s development process adds a few new features.
Claiming that when Apple started developing iOS 17, the initial thought was that iOS 17 would be a version that focused on fixing bugs and improving performance rather than adding new features, Gurman said later in the development process that the strategy changed and now iOS 17 version is renewed last year. He suggested that even if it doesn’t include any major improvements like the lock screen, a few “nice to have” features are expected to come.
