hey what is up guys I'm cubby HD here and this is everything you need to know about the newest version of iOS iOS 11 so I've done these same types of videos for new versions of Android in the past and as you've noticed while they're probably usually a bigger numerical jump forward they're also usually lately more of minor additions and small incremental improvements which are so really good but not quite as exciting as a huge one so iOS 11 just got the big unveil and not gonna lie it's a pretty big update both in new features and as a visual refresh there's a lot of new stuff there too and as a bonus most of your iphones will probably get this iOS 11 update at some point same thing can't really be said I can't really say everyone's phone is going to get that Android 8.0 update so these are the top 5 new features in maybe the biggest iOS update yet iOS 11 so number 5 is the way it handles screenshots so screenshots in iOS were pretty simple before you take a simple screenshot and it goes to the gallery in iOS 11 you take a screenshot and it sort of floats down here to the corner where you can take action on it whenever you want you tap on it and then it expands and gives you the mark-up tools - circle stuff or highlight stuff or do whatever you want with that before sharing it which is pretty awesome and as a bonus you can take multiple screenshots so want to here you can move somewhere else and take another screenshot there and another one and they all show up at the bottom where you can click in and view them all mark them all up and then share them one at a time or all of them etc pretty useful now number four is the new app store in iOS 11 well it's the same app store but it got a huge visual refresh of course I think a lot of developers will appreciate this one because the today section right over at the Left which is the default upfront can seriously highlight some apps big time here these featured cards are pretty good looking and of course you can still browse the other categories like you normally could does a dedicated games section now so the new app store is definitely very different if you get used to it pretty quickly it's going to be fun to browse kind of the same way you did the old app store just in a prettier way number three is the Siri improvements so from the time I've gotten to spend with the new Siri in iOS 11 it's a lot faster and marginally more helpful so first off I can do live translations now so I want to ask it hey Siri how I say what's the weather in German in German what's the weather I believe you and did you see how fast you reacted to the hey Siri Q like it reacts again but it seemed to react within like a second and start processing everything into that and you can actually edit what you said so technically if you want to type to Siri you can modify your question and do that too so I think even just because of its new sound speed it may be worth three matching it or reak impairing it to the Google assistant like I did in that previous video and then maybe some other assistants as well but it is still invaded technically so I'll let that fully-baked I'm just glad to see they're still working on it so number two is the visual overhaul there are so many new little things that are visually different in iOS 11 so from the minor stuff like the bars at the top for your signal instead of the dots and a couple of new icons like the new calculator and the way that looks and the new app store icon and the new iTunes Store icon all that stuff is generally flatter and simpler and more cleaned up that's kind of the theme here and the new lock screen buttons are flatter as well so if you have a pin to unlock your lock screen those buttons are glassy and clean and the dock at the bottom of the home screen doesn't have any labels anymore so it looks a little bit cleaner there too they just did a lot of cleaning up and then there's a lot of new animation so check this out waking up the phone with the power button that's new unlocking is even smoother I think double tapping the multitasking brings in the cards from the left and I I always thought that scrolling was a little bit jittery but it's very smooth now and just the launching of apps has a slightly different animation as well there is of course the new font as well and iOS so a lot of things are generally tidier and cleaned up in iOS 11 and you notice that of course with the many hours you put into using it you'll notice way more stuff but just right off the bat looking pretty good and then the number one new feature in iOS 11 is I guess the pretty obvious one you probably saw it coming is the new control center now when I first saw it on stage at WWDC my initial reaction is you probably judge from my tweet was a little bit lukewarm it didn't look all that weird in fact I think it kind of looked a little goofy when I first saw it but since I've spent time with it in my actual hands and used it my opinion of it has changed about 180 degrees plus the old control center and iOS was a bit finicky anyway let's be real so this is a pretty welcome change plus all the improvements to it are pretty dope so this is the new control center it's full screen it's one screen and you might think this gap up here is a poor use of space but it's not because you can add toggles to it it is actually legitimately customizable of all the things for Apple to make custom I wouldn't think this would be it but this is awesome so you go into the settings and you can add subtract or rearrange as many of the toggles in whatever order you want so this is what it looks like the zero toggles added and this is what it looks like with all them on not that bad and then in the control center itself all the control is pretty intuitive I think so you tap any of the toggles to enable or disable them like before the rotation lock also has this nice little animation and the brightness and volume sliders are way easier you don't have to go sideways and actually swipe to the next screen plus you can 3d touch any toggle and get way finer control on a bigger scale sometimes with more options appearing which is awesome pretty good looking if you ask me and of course you see the circle down here at the bottom that's our new favorite control screen recording so you can now record your screen to a video without any cables necessary and even turn the microphone audio on and off which could be super useful in a ton of ways wink wink snapchat doesn't seem to know you're taking a screenshot wink wink it's probably gonna be fixed with an update but not yet wink wink so let's customizable control center while it may look a little bit weird at first I think is the biggest and best improvement to iOS so those are your top five and like I said there's a ton of other little minor stuff that didn't even make this list that is still greatly improved in iOS 11 you can now click and drag multiple icons from the home screen and put them together and move them all to a new page at the same time the new volume control and everything else about the default video player in Safari is way better there's a new do not disturb while driving mode that will probably honestly actually save lives there's a files app for looking through and organizing all the files on your device and there will be person-to-person payments through iMessage and Apple pay which isn't available yet in this version but still seems like it'll also be pretty useful so overall I'd say this is a pretty big update just FYI this is still a Developer Preview technically so more thing could be added or taken away in the future don't want to get too carried away but the full beta is coming later this month and I think the full final free release for all your iPhones will be coming in the fall so let me know what your favorite feature is what you're looking forward to for me it's recording things on the screen a lot that's pretty much it thank you for watching Tut together the next one
