The most popular new feature in the new iOS, as highlighted in the "Platforms State of the Union" session, is the increased customizability of the home screen. This includes the ability for app icons and widgets to appear in light, dark, or tinted versions, providing a consistent visual experience across the home screen. Additionally, the new controls API allows for the creation of custom controls that can be added to the control center, assigned to the action button on the iPhone 15 Pro, or appear on the lock screen.
