Hey Guys,
According to renown leaker Sonny Dickson, the Cupertino company is
gearing up to launch the first beta for iOS 10.3 on January 10th 2017.
When Apple
pushed-out iOS 9.3 in March 2016, it
introduced the new Night Shift feature, which modifies
the amount of harsh, blue light emitted from your screen throughout the day, to
improve the quality of your sleep. And it appears that 2017 will be no
different.
According
to leaker Sonny Dickson, iOS 10.3 will bundle a new feature, dubbed Theatre
Mode.
Many
have speculated that Theatre Mode could refer to a system-wide dark mode, like
the one shipped in macOS and tvOS.
Based
on evidence unearthed in the first beta of iOS 10, it looked like Apple was
preparing to offer the new mode alongside the initial launch of the operating
system update, back in September.
As for
new features, there have been several hints that Apple could be
releasing a brand new Theater mode.
The new
“mode” should appear on the control centre and its icon will be in the shape of
film lovers’ favourite snack: popcorn.
“Theatre
mode” is hotly tipped to be a new way to dim your device at the touch
of a button.
There
are suggestions it will make watching films easier on your iPhone.
But
most importantly, Apple lovers are hoping the update will bring a fix for
the 30 percent battery drainage bug that has seen iPhone 5 to iPhone 6S
customers losing juice.
Mr
Dickson told technology blog 9 to 5 Mac that
his sources regarding Theatre mode suggest might “very well might be [an]
enhanced version of Dark Mode.”
Apple
is purportedly pretty keen on this new addition, since it will get its own
Control Centre icon.
The new
icon will resemble popcorn, according to Mr Dickson.
Whether
the new Theatre Mode will also include functionality similar to Do Not Disturb
– making it ideal when iPhone users want to quickly check their phone while
watching a movie, remains to be seen.
The
news comes days after leaked images appeared online, appearing to show a new Jet White colour scheme for the latest
iPhone.
Some
sources believed the glossy new colour, dubbed Jet White, would make an
appearance in time for the holiday shopping rush.
While
that deadline came and went, new video footage appears to
rumoured the Jet White colour options on the iPhone 7 and larger iPhone
7 Plus.
The
video was originally posted by Sonny Dickson, who has a long history of
publishing photos of as-yet unreleased products and components.
