The much-anticipated iOS18 finally made its debut at Apple's launch event, and this long-awaited update will officially go live on September 16th!
This update is a significant overhaul, not only personalizing your iPhone's home screen and lock screen but also introducing some exciting new features.
With iOS18, you can freely rearrange apps and widgets, and even change their appearance, making your phone screen more aligned with your personal style.
Additionally, Apple has launched a redesigned Control Center, making it more convenient to use. The update also includes a new password management app and support for satellite messaging, which is incredibly handy in certain situations!

Apple Intelligence will help users rewrite and summarize text, and generate images through an AI-driven image creation platform. Meanwhile, a more conversational Siri will debut in the iOS18.1 public beta in October.
