iOS 16 is almost here. We’re so excited! In a few days, Apple will be announcing the latest iOS version for its slew of devices. We’re thrilled to see what’s in store for us this time around, and we hope you are too!
Following its usual schedule, Apple should be announcing the new iOS 16 update in June 2022 at the Worldwide Developers Conference (WWDC).
The current version, iOS 15.5, supports iPhone 6s and upwards, and we are hoping to see what the new Apple iPhone update will support.
What are Our Top 5 Most anticipated features in iOS 16?
While it’s not clear what will be included in the latest iPhone update, we’ve got a few ideas of our own!
Apple has released a list of features to expect in the release of iOS 16 2022.
Here are five things we’re hoping will make their way into iOS 16:
1. Updates to Siri
Siri has been the butt of many jokes over the years, but we all know she can do a lot more than she does now — and it’s about time she got an upgrade. We’re hoping for better integration with other apps and services, as well as more natural language processing.
2. Dark Mode/Night Shift Mode
We’ve had night shift mode since iOS 9, but it’s not quite enough — we want Dark Mode! And while we’re at it, why don’t they just combine them into one? It would be great if they made the Dark Mode option available by default at night so that users could choose whether they wanted it or not based on their sleep schedule and habits.
3. Advanced theme and widget options
We need more theme options on our iPhones. We want the new iOS 16 to provide these features. This way, we can easily organize what we need and drop off what we don’t need. And we can customize our screens properly as well.
4. The quick note function
Sometimes you just need to jot down an important note immediately. How nice it would be to have a feature that we could quickly access in the new Apple iPhone update.
5. The Apple for AirPods App
Instead of the usual struggle we face going to settings to connect our AirPods, it’s time Apple provided an app for easy access. This way, we can easily navigate the app and connect our AirPods. It would be a great feature for the iPhone iOS 16.

Let’s have a look at some of them:
