14 DAY TRIAL // iOS 16 is just around the corner, as Apple is expected to begin rolling it out to production iPhones in approximately one month.
The new operating system version is still in the beta testing stage at this point, so anyone can already try it out before the public rollout begins.
Concept designer AR72014, however, has created a concept that looks as good as the real deal, providing us with an early look at what iOS 16 is going to look when it runs on an iPhone 14 Pro Max.
Of particular notice is the support for a punch-hole screen, as this is a change that Apple is believed to be planning for the iPhone 14 Pro and the iPhone 14 Pro Max. The standard iPhones are expected to retain the notch.
The concept shared on Twitter also envisions an always-on display feature, which is expected to be available in iOS 16 likely of the latest-generation iPhones.
iOS 16 coming with a new lock screen
iOS 16 will also come with new lock screen that will use widgets drawing inspiration from the Apple Watch complications.
“The Lock Screen gets more personal, beautiful, and helpful with iOS 16. With a new multilayered effect, the subjects of photos are artfully set in front of the time on the Lock Screen, creating a sense of depth. Users can also change the look of the date and time with expressive type styles and color choices,” Apple explained when it announced iOS 16 earlier this year.
“The Lock Screen features widgets that take inspiration from Apple Watch complications, making it easy to get information at a glance, such as upcoming calendar events, the weather, battery levels, alarms, time zones, Activity ring progress, and more.”
iOS 16 will support the iPhone 8 and newer, but most likely, certain features, such as the always-on display, will only be available on the latest iPhone generations.
