Despite the imminent debut date of the new OS, we&#8217;ve heard very little about what we should expect to see in the update.<\/p>\n<p>Based on the fact that <a href=\"https:\/\/www.macrumors.com\/roundup\/ios-10\/\">iOS 10<\/a> offered very few features for the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.macrumors.com\/roundup\/ipad\/\">iPad<\/a>, Federico Vittici of <em>MacStories<\/em>, who uses an iPad for much of his daily work, has <a href=\"https:\/\/www.macstories.net\/stories\/ios-11-ipad-wishes-and-concept-video\/\">imagined an iOS 11 update wishlist<\/a> that overhauls the iPad interface, introducing new iPad-only features that many pro users would undoubtedly love to see.<\/p>\n<p>Vittici collaborated with designer <a href=\"http:\/\/sambeckett.co.uk\">Sam Beckett<\/a> to bring his iOS 11 wishlist to life, providing concrete examples of ways Apple could redesign the iPad experience.<\/p>\n<p><center><iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/UyFUDQ5LLZw\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/center><br \/>\n<br \/>\nSystem-wide drag and drop functionality that would let users drag content between apps or from one iPad split screen window to another is at the top of Vittici&#8217;s list. Images, text, links, documents, and more could be dragged using intuitive long press gestures. In the example image below, text from an email is dragged into a list in Reminders.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/cdn.macrumors.com\/article-new\/2017\/05\/ios11conceptdraganddrop-800x533.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"800\" height=\"533\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-566285\" \/><br \/>\n<br \/>\nAn imagined &#8220;Shelf&#8221; feature goes hand-in-hand with drag and drop, giving users a place to store anything on the iPad they want to reference at a later time. It&#8217;s similar to the desktop on a Mac, storing items for easy access.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/cdn.macrumors.com\/article-new\/2017\/05\/ios11conceptshelf-800x533.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"800\" height=\"533\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-566286\" \/><br \/>\n<br \/>\nViticci&#8217;s other iOS 11 wishlist items include a new Split View app picker with a search feature and a better layout, a Mac-style Finder app that works with <a href=\"https:\/\/www.macrumors.com\/roundup\/icloud-drive\/\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.macrumors.com\/roundup\/icloud\/\">iCloud<\/a> Drive<\/a> for a more consistent document-finding interface, a denser home screen, multiple audio streams, and a refreshed design with bolder typography and more of a focus on visual feedback.<\/p>\n<p>For additional images and a more detailed explanation of the items on Vittici&#8217;s iOS 11 wishlist, make sure to check out the full article over at <em><a href=\"https:\/\/www.macstories.net\/stories\/ios-11-ipad-wishes-and-concept-video\/\">MacStories<\/a><\/em>.<\/p>\n<div class=\"linkback\">Related Roundup: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.macrumors.com\/roundup\/ios-11\/\">iOS 11<\/a> <br \/>Tags: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.macrumors.com\/roundup\/concepts\/\">Concepts<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.macrumors.com\/roundup\/macstories-net\/\">macstories.net<\/a> <\/div>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/forums.macrumors.com\/threads\/ios-11-concept-imagines-overhauled-ipad-interface.2046392\/\">Discuss this article<\/a> in our forums<\/p>\n<div class=\"feedflare\">\n<a href=\"http:\/\/feeds.macrumors.com\/~ff\/MacRumors-All?a=emIXdoHipV0:l0lR3MeJY-4:6W8y8wAjSf4\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~ff\/MacRumors-All?d=6W8y8wAjSf4\" border=\"0\"><\/img><\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/feeds.macrumors.com\/~ff\/MacRumors-All?a=emIXdoHipV0:l0lR3MeJY-4:qj6IDK7rITs\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~ff\/MacRumors-All?d=qj6IDK7rITs\" border=\"0\"><\/img><\/a>\n<\/div>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~r\/MacRumors-All\/~4\/emIXdoHipV0\" height=\"1\" width=\"1\" alt=\"\"\/> <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":5817,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_et_pb_use_builder":"","_et_pb_old_content":"","_et_gb_content_width":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[25],"tags":[68,69,59,26],"class_list":["post-341469","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-technology","tag-apple","tag-macrumors","tag-media","tag-technology"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/people.utm.my\/asmawisham\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/341469","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/people.utm.my\/asmawisham\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/people.utm.my\/asmawisham\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/people.utm.my\/asmawisham\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/5817"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/people.utm.my\/asmawisham\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=341469"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/people.utm.my\/asmawisham\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/341469\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/people.utm.my\/asmawisham\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=341469"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/people.utm.my\/asmawisham\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=341469"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/people.utm.my\/asmawisham\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=341469"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
