After rolling out the iOS 17.2 beta update to developers and testers last week, Apple is reportedly planning to bring many new features and changes for iPhones in the upcoming software update. Once iOS 17.2 update is available, it can be installed in the Settings app: Settings > General > Software Update. Here’s a list of all new features coming to iOS 17.2, which is expected to be released in December. – With iOS 17.2, you can set the Action button to open the Translate app quickly on the Dynamic Island. – There’s a new Journal app that lets you record your day with text, photos, music, and more. It offers suggestions based on your activity. – Weather and Clock apps have new widgets for your Home and Lock Screens, including daily forecasts and a digital clock. – You can easily add stickers to messages in the Messages app. – The new update allows you to customise your Memoji’s body features like waist, bust, and more. – In iOS 17.2, you can turn off your Apple Music Listening History with a new Focus filter, so if you allow someone else to use your device to listen to music, you can quickly activate the Focus with a tap and prevent their song choices from affecting your recommendations. – iMessage Contact Key Verification will improve security for users such as journalists, human rights activists, and government officials facing digital threats In conversations between users who have enabled iMessage Contact Key Verification, users are alerted if a state-sponsored attacker or other malicious actor were ever to succeed breaching cloud servers and inserting their own device to eavesdrop on the conversation. In related news, iPhone users could get generative AI features from Apple by next year. Apple CEO Tim Cook confirmed his company’s plans in the AI arena during the investors call this week.
