The 15 pros will have physical buttons not haptic buttons. Because of design issues with their iPhone 15 pros.

Facts! I agree with him. It is too late to change the design now. Production of iPhone 15 should kick off in May/June especially with the new Titanium Material.
Two reasons I doubt this:
1: The amount of iPads that would be cut off in one update would be enormous. You'd be cutting off all iPad Pros from 2015-October 2018, and the iPad fifth, sixth and even the seventh generation, which was only introduced in 2019, six months or so before the lockdowns began. I don't think Apple is ready to start dropping their latest devices during the worst of the pandemic.
2: It's been 7 years since Apple has dropped iOS devices from the latest software two years in a row. 11 and 12, then 13, 14 and 15 all had the same list, I expect 16 and 17 to follow this same trend.
Maybe A9 and A9X iPads get cut, but even then I expect everything else to stay the same.
LOL. So your leveraging your response on Apple ironing out all the bugs in iOS16? That pretty much guarantees A11 devices will get iOS17.. Apple never irons out all the bugs, they just move on to the next version and pretend like everything is working fine.. Then they'll tell you you need a newer device that can run the latest version of iOS.
Will Music stop nagging me about subscribing to Apple Music and let me enjoy the music I purchased during the last 15 years in iTunes Store?
I agree. I'm betting iOS18 gets rid of A9/9X, A10/10X and A11 devices...
Same, with the possible exception of the A10X iPad Pro, which I expect to get an extra year of updates.
I stopped believing it when I read a QC team will device about the ipad support.
We all know Apple doesn’t have a QC team
iPad Pro 10.5 was the modern equivalent of the Air2. Way over built and extremely capable device. Wouldn't surprise me if it stuck around for more than iOS18
Guessing this means no significant changes to iPadOS. I didn’t figure there would be, but meh, part of me was hoping.
If there are changes, or improvements in the camera interface, it will surely be limited to the iPhone 15, or at most, they would add it to the 14.
Hopefully at some point in May some captures can be filtered 🤞
I think if they update the overall GUI in the camera app, it would be changed across all devices supporting iOS 17. Any new camera features may likely be limited to just the 15 series. So look and feel would be the same across all devices supporting iOS 17 but features will vary from phone series to phone series.
Really excited about the dynamic island doing more! I really like the concept of the DI and wanted apple to add even more functionality to it so glad to hear about this in iOS 17
There was not more detail:
5. Dynamic Island will do a lot more; marketing department pressured development team to add more to Dynamic Island most likely to push sales of the standard iPhone 15’s release.
This entire post and twitter posts are really generic stuff that we all know would happen, not sure I see the credibility here.
I wished you could get some notifications only in a certain focus mode. E.g. I get ~120 emails/day at work and have my work email in the outlook app and my private emails in mail. I only want to get notifications from outlook (or message notifications from teams) when my work focus is activated (automatically by location) - and none when there's no focus activated. Imho, that's not possible atm - only if I switched to another focus. I could setup an automation shortcut to switch to another focus when I leave work, but I'm not sure if that would interfere with other location based foci. Or am I missing something?
Glasses incoming.

All I want is health/activity on iPad.
Then watchOS workout app to support ant+ sensors for biking.
I know I know.. The watch doesn’t even have an ant+ capability. But there is still a small glimmer of hope that it does and just hasn’t been enabled similar to the HomePod temperature sensor.
