1. New Home Screen & App Library Icon: A Fresh Perspective
iOS 17 Beta 4 brings a change to the Settings menu icon for Home Screen & App Library. Previously depicted as a white outline of an iPhone displaying a Home Screen on a blue background, the new icon showcases three rows of multicolored app-style icons on a delightful purple backdrop.
2. iMessage App Menu: Aesthetic Enhancements
With iOS 17, accessing all Messages apps and tools, including the camera and photo options, is made simpler by tapping on the "+" button. Beta 4 refines this experience by tweaking the design of icons. Notable changes include the Camera icon transformed into a traditional camera glyph and the Photos icon reverting to the standard Photos app icon. Other subtle tweaks are visible in icons like Cash, Audio, and Location, giving them a fresh and polished look.
3. Standby Notification Preview Toggle: Take Charge of Your Notifications
In the Standby menu of Settings, iOS 17 Beta 4 introduces a handy toggle called "Show Preview on Tap Only." Enabling this feature allows Standby to conceal the preview of a notification until you tap on it. Standby mode displays a full-screen view with essential information when you place your horizontally-charging iPhone aside, offering quick and convenient access to vital details at a glance.
4.NameDrop Toggle: Taking Control of AirDrop
In the AirDrop menu within Settings, Apple introduces a new "Start Sharing By" section featuring a"Bringing Devices Together" toggle. This empowers users to manually switch NameDrop on and off. NameDrop, a highlight of iOS 17, allows seamless contact information exchange when you bring your iPhone close to another user's device. With this new toggle, you now have the flexibility to enable or disable this feature at your convenience.
