Apple announces iOS 11, macOS High Sierra and more at WWDC 2017

Apple has announced updates for its iOS, macOS and watchOS operating systems amongst others at this year’s Worldwide Developer’s Conference today (June 5).

The biggest updates to iOS include Do Not Disturb While Driving, which will prevent access to your iPhone while you’re at the wheel, as well as a redesigned Notifications Center and a raft of updates to the iPad, including drag and drop and a customizable dock.

macOS High Sierra brings with it Apple’s new Apple File System and a new version of Metal, designed to give developers access to more power and control over its Mac apps. This update will also bring with it the ability to power virtual reality on the Mac.

Meanwhile, watchOS 4 introduces three new watch updates, new complications to bring Apple News and Now Playing to your home screen, an updated Workout app, and the ability to pay your contacts person-to-person.
