When iOS 18 arrives later this year, a number of Apple's built-in iPhone apps could be getting a fresh look and new features. According to insider Mark Gurman, the company is planning upgrades for its Notes, Mail, Photos, Fitness, and Calculator applications in the next major software update. Redesigned Apple Apps Apple plans to enhance Notes, Mail, Photos, Fitness, and Calculator apps in iOS 18 Unfortunately, specifics on what these "upgrades" will entail have not been divulged yet. However, it's likely we'll see interface refreshes and added functionality across these apps based on past iOS redesigns and updates. For instance, Notes may gain enhanced organization tools, multimedia embedding options, and collaboration features. The Mail app is a prime candidate for an overhaul with a more modern layout. And Photos could be primed for an AI-powered search and editing upgrade. This wouldn't be the first time Apple gave its stock apps a coat of fresh paint. The company routinely revamps some of its pre-installed applications every year with each major new iOS release. Last year's iOS 16 brought redesigns for apps like Home, Health, and others. Changes Coming Beyond Individual Apps iOS 18 to introduce a more modular system design for improved customization These individual app tweaks may just be the tip of the iceberg for what Apple has planned in iOS 18. Gurman reports the update will introduce some fairly substantial design changes across the operating system as a whole, though falling short of the more dramatic visual overhaul seen in iOS 17. Specifically, he says the new iOS 18 design elements will be more "modular" to facilitate easier updates and customization in the future. This could potentially allow iOS users more flexibility in placing app icons freely for the first time. iOS 18 To Be the Biggest Update in Years Anticipated AI enhancements in iOS 18 will boost app functionalities and Siri interactions iOS 18 is also expected to showcase Apple's increased focus on artificial intelligence moving forward.
