Recently, Apple's biggest news is that they were accused by the U.S. Court of Justice of monopolizing the market, and Apple is actively negotiating with Google to add Google's Gemini artificial intelligence engine to iPhones, which may affect the changes in the iOS operating system this year, so according to Apple's accurate Bloomberg's Mark Gurman's latest report, iOS 18 will be the "biggest" in iOS history One of the updates, as well as the iPhone home screen, will bring customizable update changes.
iOS 18 iPhone home screen will have obvious update changes? !
Apple said that 2024 will be Apple's "Year of Artificial Intelligence", this month Apple has acquired DarwinAI, a startup specializing in artificial intelligence, and the latest news said that Apple and Google are negotiating cooperation on generative artificial intelligence engine, hoping to add some new features to the new operating system, so iOS 18 may have obvious major updates, so "artificial intelligence" will be one of the focus of the update.
In addition, according to Bloomberg's Mark Gurman in his latest report, users can expect significant updates to the iPhone home screen in iOS 18, although the details of the changes are not explicitly mentioned, but it is stated that iOS 18 allows users to "customize" the iPhone home screen, such as the possibility of freely placing the app icon anywhere on the home screen, or there can be custom spaces between the icons, etc. This is a continuation of the "lock screen" concept of iOS 16, hoping to make everyone's iPhone more personal and practical, so that they can create their own iPhone.
Therefore, Apple will make iOS 18 one of the biggest updates ever, and "artificial intelligence" will be one of the focuses of the update, integrating AI functions into all operating systems, and may also integrate Google's Gemini artificial intelligence engine, but Mark Gurman has said that Apple's AI function is not "ChatGPT-like" artificial intelligence function, but "will help manage your daily life" as a concept, such as Siri improvements, Apple Music's AI-generated playlists, iWork's AI-generated files, iMessage reply suggestions, and more.
These new features will be announced at WWDC in June and will be officially launched in September with the new iPhone 16 series.
