Slowly but shani solanis sex videosurely, Apple is turning its Dynamic Island – a pill-shaped space on top of iPhone 14 Pro and Pro Max that hides the selfie camera and displays animated widgets – into a full-fledged feature.
A month ago, I wrote about a cool little gesture that the Dynamic Island supports, allowing you to turn it off with a swipe to the left or right.

Of course, you may wonder why you need such granular controls over the Dynamic Island, as it's mostly showing notifications and activities from a handful of Apple apps. But this is changing, too. With iOS 16.1, third-party apps can take advantage of the Dynamic Island, and some have already done so. These include meal planning app Crouton, fitness app Liftin', and flight tracking app Flighty.
