According to a member of the MacRumors forum who provided accurate information regarding the Dynamic Island on the iPhone 14 Pro before the device’s announcement last year, iOS 17 will include “major” changes to Control Center on the iPhone.
The unnamed source went on to say in an email that iOS 17 will focus on making improvements to stability and performance. This suggests that a new Control Center might be one of the most noticeable changes coming with the software update.
Apple is supposed to declare iOS 17 during the WWDC 2023 feature on June 5, and to the surprise of no one, the main beta rendition ought to be made accessible to engineers for testing sometime thereafter.
Control Center, which has largely remained unchanged since iOS 11 was released in 2017, was not specifically mentioned by the source. Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, display brightness, volume, and numerous other system functions can be easily accessed by iPhone users through the menu. Swiping down from the top-right corner of the screen on iPhone X and later devices opens Control Center.
Control Center turns ten this year, having been introduced with iOS 7. After six years of minimal changes, Apple may, on a speculative basis, make Control Center more customizable and redesign the menu design; however, the precise changes, if any, remain to be seen.
This rumor has yet to be confirmed by other sources, and Apple’s plans are subject to change, despite the forum member’s established track record.
