Although the main novelty that it will bring iOS 27, Siri AIwill not arrive in Europe, users here can console themselves with other novelties, less attractive, but that have their impact. Among them, a significant improvement in the speed with which the device responds derived from software optimizationso that in some tasks it can reach up to 80%.
In this Monday’s presentation at the WWDCthe company assured that iOS 27 focuses on speed, stability and efficiency, above flashy design changes. Thus, the new software will make various common uses perform faster on the same range of devices already running iOS 26which means that many older iPhones, up to iPhone 11they should feel snappier once users install it. This will translate into faster app openings, shorter waiting times in Photostransfers of AirDrop faster and other improvements.
Apple claims iOS 27 can open apps up to 30% faster, upload new images to Photos up to 70% faster and complete AirDrop transfers up to a 80% faster, all of it without having to change iPhone.
Other improvements are that iOS 27 accelerates the change between WiFi and mobile data and does more agile file management on the iPhone.
Logically, the improvement percentages provided will not be the same on an iPhone 11, the oldest compatible with iOS 27, as on a iPhone 17but, if true, they indicate the effort that Apple has made in optimize the operating system.
Inside, Apple has debugged old code, fixed long-standing bugs, and tuned system processes so they do less redundant work. a new cpu scheduler in iOS 27 improves the way tasks run on performance and efficiency cores. This makes scrolling through the interface is more fluid and helps control temperature and energy consumption, which should also improve the autonomy of the iPhone in daily use. Users will be able to check it out when Apple releases iOS 27 next september.
