iOS 14 Leaks: Hints of New Home Screen View & Next Apple Hardware

An apparent leak of the build of iOS 14 has revealed many new things regarding the future software and hardware plans of Apple. According to 9to5Mac, the latest details are pointing towards several new changes to be introduced on the iPhone. However, before delving deep into the details of the leaked code, it is worthy of mentioning that all the leaked code indicating new hardware and software changes necessarily doesn’t mean that all of these are going to be shipped. The introduction of some features may be delayed, or the developing team may scrap some.


It is quite challenging to predict the introduction of new hardware in the upcoming product. There are still several months left for the final announcement of Apple to release the new features which the company is intending to put into its next version of operating systems. Even though the code for the new features has already been set up, it is not guaranteed that any of the products will be released imminently.


Upcoming Apple Hardware Features

Here, is what the leaked code is indicating regarding future hardware devices:-

According to the reports of 9to5Mac, it has been revealed that Apple will launch an iPad Pro with the inclusion of a triple-lens camera. The new triple-lens camera will be set up with a 3D sensor of time-of-flight along with an ultra-wide lens, a telephoto lens, and a wide-angle lens. The time of flight sensor in the new iPad Pro will be based on the augmented reality features as Apple is busy in developing the applications based on augmented reality for iOS 14. The company has identified the new augmented reality-based application as “Gobi” that will allow the users to acquire more information about the world.


Meanwhile, some other hardware features on which Apple is working include an inbuilt touch display iPhone and a new remote for Apple TV along with a new original Apple TV box. However, there are no many details regarding the functionality of the new Apple TV remote. It is also in speculation that Apple is planning to launch a Tile-like item tracker, Air tag with batteries that could be replaced by the users conveniently. The users will be able to locate the Air Tags as it will be based on augmented reality, and a sound will be played by it.


Upcoming Apple Software Features

Several new software features have also been revealed in the leaked code and here, is the list based on some reports:-


Apple is planning to introduce a new option of the home screen list view, which will allow the users to go through the icons of applications in a list view.


Apple is working with Starbucks to develop a new application based on augmented reality feature so that the users can focus the camera of their phones in the real world objects and can seek more information about what they have seen.


The integration of dynamic wallpapers into the settings of the wallpaper section by the third-party app is also going to be introduced by Apple.

Along with the introduction of a Homekit, allowing the users to adjust the color temperatures of light throughout the daytime, the company is also planning to launch a fitness app and augmented Pencil support.


The launch of accessibility feature by Apple will help the users to identify new noises and sounds such as identifying the doorbells and alarms by the people who are lost their hearing capacity.


It is also speculating that Apple may build a contest such as #ShotOniPhone into the applications of iPhone photos.
