A few weeks ago
already presented on stage during the WWDC 2017 keynote
summarized here, the next version of Apple's mobile operating system,
iOS 11. It is scheduled to arrive in the fall, alongside thenext iPhone 7s, 7s Plus and 8.
Many changes have been revealed and more than 120are listed
ici. This new version is also announced by Apple as being
thebiggest update iOS has ever seen.
Saying that is one thing, having users satisfied with the new features in
is another. Because there is no guarantee that the additions will be deemed relevant for
daily use of iOS. This is therefore the question that
we recently asked you here: "How do you judge the
What's new in iOS 11?"
Here are the results and our analysis of this recent survey
iPhon.fr :
The numbers
To the question “How do you find the new features of iOS 11?”, four
Answers were offered: good, great, not convinced or disappointed.
Of the more than 1,300 responses counted during the writing of this
synthesis, you are ultimately close to3 out of 4 readersto be
ssatisfied with the new features announced, or approximately 44% of
convinced and 30% even deeming the changes “top”.
At the same time, negative opinions represent the other quarter with almost
d’one in 5 readers who are not excited, when the real ones
disappointed are only 7%.
With these figures, we can say that Appleapparently just typed in
term of evolutionsfor iOS device owners.
Comparison with the same iOS 10 survey
Last year, we carried out the same survey regarding iOS 10:
THE
results can be viewed here.
At the same period, before the release, version 10 of iOS had been
judged convincing (Good and even Top) for 80% of participants, on a volume
completely similar vote. It is therefore slightly above almost 75%.
of this year, but inthe same order of magnitude.
Your comments and analysis
THE
Comments can be viewed here in detail.
Overall, what stands out most often about iOS 11 is the
disappointment with 32-bit appsthat Apple
will give up. This means that many apps that are not
no longer updated by their developer, although still functional and
useful for some, will simply go by the wayside. A great evil,
for certain good, but a difficult pill to swallow for many of
We.
The other major dissatisfaction that remains relates to the impossibility of
be able to manage the activation and deactivation of geolocation from
of the control center, although completely overhauled. Different options and
other settings are accessible from this dashboard, but the
GPS management is still missing and this disappoints many. We can
imagine that this GPS has become such an integral part of apps and
daily operation of the machines, that Apple does not want to see the
users worry about its activation/deactivation.
These two points aside, for the satisfied camp, it is
all the new features, sometimes minor but considered
relevant, noted in almost all areas of the OS which
should make this 2017 delivery agood update
for you users.
Few other positive aspects are highlighted, particularly nothing on the
new features regarding storage, including all
new image and video compression algorithmswill undoubtedly have to
be used to be appreciated, nor even concerningthe improvement of
multitasking on iPad. Here again, you will have to wait to manipulate for the
most of you, to validate these changes.
It is indeed still very early to measure the real impacts on
the user of this new version and the extent of the possibilities offered,
for example in terms of augmented reality, as we have seen

NFC support
For iOS 11, while the raw numbers also show good
satisfaction, the comments also remain rather critical, to
see if the next few weeks and the possibility of discovering even more
Things about iOS 11 could make the disgruntled change sides.
We will make asimilar poll after iOS 11 release, fin
September or early October, to see if sentiment changes once the
version in the hands of users! Last year, thesatisfaction
had increased between the June discovery and the use of
september.
