OnWWDC 2024Before the official launch,Related NewsIt was further revealed that iOS 18 will add more customization features to App icons, including more flexible colors and arrangements, and even automatically switch to different tones in dark mode, so as to further reduce screen power consumption and extend the device's power usage time.
Prior to this, relevant news has pointed out that the App icons of iOS 18 can be arranged freely. Unlike in the past, they can only be arranged in order according to the established grid, but can be placed freely. The news this time further indicates that in iOS 18, the App icons will be able to dim the color tone according to whether the system is set to dark mode, thereby corresponding to lower power consumption performance.
On the other hand, Apple may also add encryption protection features such as Face ID to apps, requiring additional passwords and identity verification to open the apps. This is similar to the biometric and password protection mechanisms that Google has previously added to the Android operating system, allowing users to protect personal information in a simpler and more intuitive way.
Of course, the iOS 18 update is also expected to include the addition of more AI-based application functions, such as enhancing the Siri digital assistant service, improving the efficiency of account and password management across devices through iCloud services, and possibly cooperating with OpenAI to introduce more AI model technologies to establish an AI function called "Apple Intelligence."
In addition to announcing many artificial intelligence features, Apple is also expected to explain its future privacy protection practices behind artificial intelligence, and will also announce more convenient development tool resources.
