Iphone: iOS 17 may make it easier for iPhone users to decipher symbols with the Photos app – Times of India
According to a report by MacRumors, the Cupertino-based tech giant will use machine learning to help the Photos app in iOS 17 to identify a wide range of symbols. This includes the laundry symbols that can be found on clothing tags or the ones that appear on a vehicle’s dashboard. With iOS 17, when users will take a photo of a laundry tag or a car’s dashboard the symbols, appearing on them will be highlighted through the Visual Lookup feature. Users will also be able to tap on these symbols to translate them to make out their meaning.
How will this feature work
As per the report, with iOS 17, the Photos app on iPhones will be able to explain each symbol that can be found on a laundry tag or a vehicle’s dashboard. For laundry symbols, Apple has partnered with the International Organisation for Standardisation which will explain the laundry instructions from its online browsing platform.
The report also notes that the Visual Lookup tool in iOS 17 was able to recognize all of the laundry symbols that were tested. This includes washing machine temperatures, bleaching recommendations, dryer restrictions, ironing temperatures and more. The Photos app is expected to recognise almost any laundry tag. However, users also need to note that the image needs to be fairly zoomed in for the iPhone to detect the symbols.
Visual Lookup’s ability to detect car symbols on a vehicle’s dashboard also suggests that iPhones will support several common symbols that users might come across in their day-to-day life.
Apart from this, some of the other features that will be available with iPhone’s Photos app in iOS 17 include — pet recognition, one-tap crop, animated stickers made from Live Photos, recipe searches based on food pictures and more.
