iOS 17 comes with a new Journal app that allows you to jot down your thoughts and save images throughout the day in a private way. The app uses machine learning to create personalized suggestions of moments throughout the day, including people you’ve spoken to and music you’ve listened to. The app is based around privacy, and the Journal app can be locked, so people can’t go through your entries.

Autocorrect and Dictation

Apple has improved autocorrect across iOS, adding a new machine learning model that can better predict what you want to say. It can offer to autofill entire sentences with inline predictions when typing, so finishing a word or a sentence is as simple as pressing the spacebar. Correcting mistakes is easier because it can be done with a tap. There's also a new speech recognition model for dictation that makes it more accurate.

Contact Posters
