iOS 17,sex tv show video poised for an official release date of Sept. 18, is electrifying iPhone users – and I don’t blame 'em. I mean, they’re getting a new Check In feature that automatically updates your worried acquaintances, thus preventing any "Text me when you get home" forgetfulness fiascos, a NameDrop function that lets users swap contact information more seamlessly, and the upcoming Journal app is the talk of the town.

If you, like me, are obsessed with being in the know on how your iOS experience will be enriched, check out three additional iOS 17 goodies announced this week.

2. The new bokeh effect feature that was showcased at the iPhone 15 event
At the iPhone 15 "Wanderlust" event, Apple showed off a new photo feature that lets you finagle with the focus and depth of subjects. In other words, you can add a bokeh effect to anyone in your photo. We thought this was an iPhone 15-exclusive feature, but as it turns out, it’s rolling out to previous-gen iPhones, too, via iOS 17.

3. The Home app got an update
Environmentally conscious users will appreciate the fact that iOS 17 added a new tool – it’s called "Grid Forecast" – to the Home app that lets users know when their power grid has cleaner energy available. This way, you can decide when to best use your electricity.
For example, if you need to charge your Tesla, it may be best to keep an eye on the Grid Forecast tool so you can use cleaner energy during periods of high power consumption. This feature, as well as the aforementioned other perks, is currently available via the latest version of the iOS 17 public beta.
