Expected iOS 17 changes include AirPlay and Wallet upgrades

The changes arriving in iOS 17 and iPadOS 17 will include enhancements to AirPlay to make it easier to work with hotel TVs, a leaker claims, as the rumors continue to flood in ahead of WWDC.

According to Mark Gurman in his “Power On” newsletter for Bloomberg, the software updates will have a change made to AirPlay that will make it easier to “beam content to TVs and speakers you don’t own.” While this could include other people’s homes, Gurman offers it could also potentially work for devices located in hotels.

Gurman’s other preview features includes a smart display-like interface that kicks in when the iPhone is locked and in a landscape orientation. The feature, previously raised in rumors, would display calendar appointments and other details, as well as notifications.

There’s also mention of a journaling app with location services support, so that users could take notes and update friends on activities, as well as to log mood and emotions. The Wallet app will also apparently be upgraded to match Apple’s continued expansion into financial services.

In preparation for the Apple headset, SharePlay will supposedly get some enhancements, but exactly what that entails isn’t mentioned. Health app updates may include mood logging and “managing vision problems, as well as arriving on the iPad for the first time.
