IOS 17 also factors in NameDrop, a seamless way to share contact cards wirelessly within the Apple ecosystem.

Another interesting feature is the messages update, which includes a a new sticker experience with new emoji’s and the ability to create live stickers by lifting subjects from photos.
Users also get to add effects to live stickers to bring them to life.
Other great features are greater protection for browsing on Safari.
Apple says advanced tracking and fingerprinting protections go even further to help prevent websites from tracking or identifying a user’s device.
