The first upgrade is related to AI, and Gurman says the image generating capabilities of Apple Intelligence are &#8220;getting a big boost this year&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p id=\"elk-ae336bba-c014-4a94-a867-5c64f2bf44d8-2\">Right now, you&#8217;re somewhat limited in terms of what you can make with AI inside Image Playground on the iPhone: the styles and editing options lag behind what&#8217;s possible with the likes of Gemini and ChatGPT. With iOS 27, Apple plans to catch up.<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"inline-flex items-center gap-1.5 text-sm font-article-heading capitalize leading-5 text-white whitespace-nowrap\"><span class=\"jwp-carousel-title-mobile\"\/><span class=\"jwp-carousel-title-desktop\">Latest Videos From<\/span><span class=\"jwp-carousel-brand inline-flex items-center\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><\/span><\/span><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.techradar.com\/media\/img\/techradar_logo_v2.svg\" alt=\"\" class=\"max-h-12 w-auto\" aria-hidden=\"true\"\/><br \/>\n        <span class=\"\n            flex\n            after:content-[''] after:flex-1 after:ml-4 after:my-[0.7rem] after:border-t after:border-solid after:border-t-[#ccc]\n            before:content-[''] before:flex-1 before:mr-4 before:my-[0.7rem] before:border-t before:border-solid before:border-t-[#ccc]\n            font-article-heading pb-0 text-[length:var(--article-river-title--font-size,1em)] uppercase sm:text-[length:var(--article-river-title--font-size,0.875em)] font-bold\n        \"><br \/>\n            You may like<br \/>\n        <\/span><\/p>\n<p>Then there are new features relating to AirPods. Gurman says that Apple will &#8220;revamp&#8221; the controls and settings pages for its wireless earbuds, though Apple is stopping short of giving AirPods their own app (like the Apple Watch has).<\/p>\n<p>We don&#8217;t get too much detail about what this revamp might involve, but apparently the settings menus will be &#8220;more functional, better organized and more streamlined&#8221; \u2014 so it sounds like a better AirPods experience all round.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"casting-protocols-4\">Casting protocols<\/h2>\n<p class=\"vanilla-image-block\" style=\"padding-top:56.25%;\">\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/TmJd29zR73sNb2eTU7ZNNZ.jpg\" alt=\"Apple CEO Tim Cook\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/TmJd29zR73sNb2eTU7ZNNZ-1200-80.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/TmJd29zR73sNb2eTU7ZNNZ-1024-80.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/TmJd29zR73sNb2eTU7ZNNZ-970-80.jpg 970w, https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/TmJd29zR73sNb2eTU7ZNNZ-650-80.jpg 650w, https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/TmJd29zR73sNb2eTU7ZNNZ-480-80.jpg 480w, https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/TmJd29zR73sNb2eTU7ZNNZ-320-80.jpg 320w\" sizes=\"(min-width: 1000px) 970px, calc(100vw - 40px)\" loading=\"lazy\" data-new-v2-image=\"true\" data-original-mos=\"https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/TmJd29zR73sNb2eTU7ZNNZ.jpg\" data-pin-media=\"https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/TmJd29zR73sNb2eTU7ZNNZ.jpg\" class=\"rounded-[var(--image--border-radius,0)] inline\"\/>\n<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"caption-text\">Tim Cook will introduce WWDC for the final time <\/span><span class=\"credit\" itemprop=\"copyrightHolder\">(Image credit: Apple)<\/span><\/p>\n<p id=\"elk-3e448f4d-5c33-4498-b74f-4fbb8e07682d\">The third upgrade we&#8217;ve got here relates to the EU. Apple has long been battling regulators in Europe, who want to see iOS made more open and accessible to third parties \u2014 which is why we now have alternative app stores for the iPhone in the EU.<\/p>\n<p>With iOS 27, Gurman reports that Apple will allow other streaming protocols besides AirPlay to be set as the default. That means you might be able to set Google Cast as the default, native option for beaming audio and video to other devices, for&#8230;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.techradar.com\/phones\/iphone\/ios-27-is-tipped-to-get-3-big-upgrades-heres-what-to-expect-at-wwdc\">Source<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>iOS 27 is tipped to get 3 big upgrades \u2014 here&#8217;s what to expect at&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":255222,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/8KbXkUyHfZJd57bgAneCuN-1920-80.jpg","fifu_image_alt":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[120],"tags":[69],"class_list":["post-255221","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-iphone","tag-ios"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/255221"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=255221"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/255221\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":255223,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/255221\/revisions\/255223"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/255222"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=255221"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=255221"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=255221"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
