IOS 11

iOS 11 is the eleventh major release of the iOS mobile operating system developed by Apple, being the successor to iOS 10. It was announced at the company's Worldwide Developers Conference on June 5, 2017, and was released on September 19, 2017. It was succeeded by iOS 12 on September 17, 2018.

iOS 11 was introduced at the Apple Worldwide Developers Conference keynote address on June 5, 2017. The first developer beta version was released after the keynote presentation, with the first public beta released on June 26, 2017.

iOS 11 was officially released by Apple on September 19, 2017. It brought many changes to iOS. Some major highlights were:

Certain new features are only available on iPad. Some of these features are:

iOS 11 is the first version of iOS that does not support 32-bit apps or 32-bit processors. It therefore only supports 64-bit apps or 64-bit processors. (32-bit apps must be updated to 64-bit.) When installing iOS 11, if a user tries to open a 32-bit app that hasn’t yet been updated to 64-bit, iOS will simply refuse to run it. iOS 10.3 includes a popup upon launching a 32-bit application to warn users about the upcoming change and a new menu in Settings that allowed users to quickly identify what apps on their device will not be compatible with the iOS 11 update. iOS 11 makes it the second iOS version to drop just one iPad model’s support. In this case, the iPad 4.

The lock screen and Notification Center are redesigned into one, allowing users to see all notifications directly on the lock screen. Scrolling up and down will either show or hide notifications. Opening on the Lock Screen on the iPhone X is now done by swiping up.

The Control Center has been given another redesign after its short lived one from iOS 10, as it receives new unified pages and now supports 3D Touch (or a long press on devices without 3D Touch) buttons for more options. Sliders adjust volume and brightness. The Control Center is now customizable, and allows more settings to be shown, including cellular service, Low Power Mode, and a shortcut to the Notes app.

The Siri intelligent personal assistant has a more human voice and supports language translation, with English, Chinese, French, German, Italian and Spanish available at launch. It also supports follow-up questions by users. Users are also able to type to Siri.
