During the conference
of WWDC 2017,
the summary of which can be found here, Apple presented on stage numerous
new features of the next version of iOS, iOS 11. We have also listed more
of a hundred,to find
in this articlewhich we will not fail to support with the news
discoveries.
Among the additions therefore, one concerns the drivers. This is the “do not
not disturb while driving". In addition to getting in place
automatically, this will allow the driver to gain concentration
by removing notification ads, among other things:
In fact, this new mode available in iOS 11 will start as soon as
that the iPhone will detect that the user will be driving a car. The latter
must then confirm or cancel switching to this “discrete” mode.
The mode will turn the iPhone screen black so that nothing can be displayed.
All notifications will become silent, including messages.
In this regard, it will be possible to create an automatic response which will be
sent to any correspondent wishing to contact the person currently
to drive. The message can then notify the contact that the user is in
driving and that he will respond later.
An "urgent" mode will still allow the correspondent to reach
the user by typing "urgent" for example in his message, which will have
for the effect of letting the message appear on the iPhone screen despite the
blocking.
Concerning calls, Apple has introduced the possibility of leaving the iPhone
pick up automatically, with in the settings, the choice of time after
which iPhone picks up and on which sound system the audio will be
redirected, iPhone speaker or Bluetooth system connected.
This “car” mode can be deactivated or activated manually from the
new control centerdetailed
ici, while a passenger who is not driving will be able to exit the mode
“do not disturb while driving” by confirming being in the crossing position
and not a driver.
However, unclear areas persist for the moment. What about
the use of the iPhone in other means of transport, train, metro by
example ? Will the iPhone be able to differentiate driving
other types of high-speed travel? Also, that in
will it be using GPS apps like Apple Maps or Google
Maps ?
These are the questions we can ask ourselves about this new mode without
to have been able to test it in real conditions. What is certain is that all
operating details will be known when iOS 11 is released in
final version in the fall.
Is this a mode that you are waiting for and which may suit you? Do you have
already planning to use it?
