iOS 14 Leaks Shows iPhone Will Starting to Behave Like An Android

Some eye-catching changes could be headed to iOS 14 based on the latest leaks about Apple's upcoming update to its mobile operating system. That includes a significant new amount of wallpaper options — and a new widget option that could borrow one of Android's best features.

9to5Mac, which has previously reported that third parties will be able to offer wallpaper collections in iOS 14 which will be integrated into the OS's settings, says that the DongleBookPro images point to bigger changes for the look and functionality of iOS 14 that include the addition of true widgets to Apple's mobile OS.

Currently, in iOS 13, widgets live on the Today screen that you reach by swiping right on your home screen. iOS widgets show off calendar events, weather and at-a-glance bits of information from third-party apps that support widgets. (On my Today screen, for example, I've got widgets for public transit departures pulled from Google Maps and upcoming sporting events from the ESPN app.) Starting with iPadOS 13, iPad users could pin those widgets to the home screen for easier access.

Apple has something different in the works for iOS 14, 9to5Mac says — in the upcoming OS, you'll get real widgets that you'll be able to drag around the home screen of your iPhone or iPad just like you would any other app. This would bring iOS more in line with Android, which has long offered full home screen widgets that let you pin things such as weather bars or calendars in between your favorite apps.

Well, this is likely gonna be a start. Maybe it will fully behave like an Android which allows you to fully costumize your screen by iOS20? iOS25?? So, question:

Are y'all Apple elitists ready for your iPhone turn into Android-like? And most importantly, are y'all ready to get roasted by Android users for this, just like how it happened when iPhone had its first large phones that y'all initially say don't need cos it's too big but turns out more favored now? :oprah:

Is this why Jony Ive left? :oprah:

I'd love it cause I always forget my iPad has widgets cause I'm not seeing them all the time like in my Android phone. Same thing about that Google Now thing on my phone, I always forget it is a thing.

If you see me posting like crazy, I'm either bored or procrastinating.

:ohwell: It’s not that things got leaked, it’s common hype marketing 

Btw android/Apple fans don’t fight cause widgets don’t have a real use, what’s useful is the customization

Late to the game as usual, but good for them. I loved every iPhone I had but it didn't make sense to keep paying an exorbitant amount of money for each one when they all functioned more or less the same. 

People want customization options. Their home screen layout has remained largely unchAnged for the better part of a decade.

I know there’s always android vs Apple debates, at least for me I’ve always enjoyed iPhone products cause I just like their interface more

the debate between iphone users and android users is so tiring. i had an android then i switched to an iphone. i like both of them, i just prefer the hardware and software design of iphone.

If you don’t have any shadows, you’re not standing in the light.

I remember having an android and having tons of useless features. To me, widgets are useless but good for those who use them.
