The next big version of Apple’s iPhone software, iOS 16, will be unveiled at Apple’s upcoming special event, the World Developers Conference 2022 (WWDC). The main event will be a pre-recorded event, but with a personal contingent: broadcast to a small group of developers in Cupertino and simultaneously with the rest of the world. It could include Apple’s biggest unveiling of a new product category in nearly eight years.
Updated May 30. There are more leaks about the upcoming software festival, which is WWDC 2022, and how it will affect the iPhone 14 Pro and beyond. To begin with, Gourmet doubled several other reports, saying: “As I discussed earlier, other features of the iPhone 14 Pro include a new front camera and face ID, A16 chip and 48-megapixel rear camera. It is also possible to send urgent texts via satellite networks. The latter is particularly sad and was suggested to happen last year on the iPhone 13 Pro and, believe it or not, the Apple Watch. None of this happened, but maybe 2022 is the year for this significant upgrade. This would mean that if you were traveling in the back of the afterlife, where no ordinary cellular signal was available, you could send an emergency text message via satellite. Very cool.
Furthermore. some recent reports confirm what Mark Germann said about iOS 16. Steve Troutton-Smith, for example, says WebKit has just added an iOS multitasking infrastructure that certainly looks like a system switch that allows free-resizing windows. “
In other words, something that has leaked to iOS concerns its sister iPadOS and leads analysts to believe that the holy grail of iPad upgrades is on the way: full-fledged capabilities for many windows like the ones you get on a Mac. This is very big news and Gourmet repeated the above, saying: “I expect big changes in the window and multitasking, especially on the iPad. This was confirmed by a finding by Steve Troughton-Smith, which suggests that Apple is building support into its web browsing framework for better support for windows.
This would be a very big job, and since a lot of time has passed, with a slight movement in this direction, improving the overall experience, a big last step like this would be very welcome. As Troughton-Smith puts it: “If we’re really heading in that direction with the iPad, it would allow entirely new form factors for the iPadOS. Larger iPads, iPadOS laptops and desktops, external monitors and more. You can see how Catalyst-optimized apps just light up in iPad’s new multitasking mode – a full desktop experience.
Of course, this could hurt MacBook sales, but Apple said it never worries about cannibalizing sales of its own products. As long as the customer adheres to Apple products, ie.
Back to the news about Gourmet’s other predictions …
Even if that doesn’t happen, there will certainly be first glances at Apple’s software platforms: iOS for iPhone, iPadOS for iPad, macOS for Apple Macs, tvOS for Apple TV and watchOS for Apple Watch.
Now Mark Gourman of Bloomberg in his latest Power On newsletter has news on what iOS 16 contains. While most of the innovations are just software, at least one shows something that can only be locked for the iPhone 14 series or parts of it.

Always on screen
This is a feature that the iPhone has never had, although there are many Android phones. However, Apple’s mantra seems to be “Don’t do it first, do it right”.
The best screens always on show the time, what notifications are waiting, whether there is an alarm and so on. You can configure them to show exactly what you want, including, in the case of Huawei’s excellent screens, cute animation. This means you can look down at the iPhone and see the time, even without touching it.
All without killing the battery.
Gourmet claims that this new feature, if we assume that it will make the cut, will be reserved for Apple iPhone 14 Pro and iPhone 14 Pro Max, ie iPhone 14 and iPhone 14 Max, if the other two phones are called so, will win . I do not have it.
This is a feature that has been planned for a long time, because according to Gourmet, it is: “something that Apple originally planned for last year’s iPhone 13. This would allow the iPhone to significantly reduce the frame rate and display information at a glance – like of Apple’s newer watches. “
If it happens, it’s a big deal.
Also in iOS 16
Gourmet also said there would be an extensive series of changes to the operating system, including “notification updates, multitasking on the iPad and messaging and health apps.” The transformation also includes a part of the interface that is often late: the lock screen.
He rightly points out that the most used screen lock feature is probably the flashlight button – if your use is something like mine, it is.
New “widget-like wallpapers” are provided. There are no more details from Gurman about this, but it sounds exciting and suggests a more innovative and useful lock screen.
IPhone messages may be about to change.

Messages
The next iPhone software is expected to see an improved Messages app with “more social networking functionality, especially around audio messaging.”
Messages already has a bunch of great features like the ability to add confetti or balloons to texts, and the fact that advanced stuff is only available among Apple users adds exclusivity and helps stop the wholesale transition to multi-platform WhatsApp, perhaps.
Health is expected to be upgraded to iOS 16.

Health
New features are expected for the iPhone Health app, and while Gourmet says there will be “many.” No further details yet.
More details as we have them, but not long until everything is revealed.
