Apple has been busy redesigning every part of iOS 18 and the Settings app has been no exception, here are its changes from start to finish
Those from Cupertino will make iOS 18 a very special version, especially for those users who have an iPhone 15 Pro or iPhone 15 Pro Max because they will be the first iPhone compatible with Apple Intelligence before the iPhone 16 is launched. These are not the only new features of iOS 18 in particular but also have thought about the redesign like a strong card. In addition to customization, the Settings section has been organized. Normally, the parameters of airplane mode, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, among others, remain at the highest part but Apple has placed the Battery section as one of the important sections.
iOS 18 improves its guts with the Settings app, better on the iPhone 15 Pro
The order in which each of the parameters is displayed has changed dramatically. The second part of these we will now see the General section, Accessibility, Action Button, Camera, Control Center, Screen and Brightness, Siri, Wallpaper and other elements.
The change begins after notifications, screen time, etc., as a section dedicated to security and privacy is set aside. where we can control what is related to Face ID and passwords, SOS emergency and other functions related to the section. Finally, the apps were gathered in a new section with the same name.so if you want to see the parameters of each of the installed apps you will have to click on this section and look for it in a new window.

The General section is the one that has changed the most, in addition to showing new headers in large size
Perhaps the section that has changed the most is the General section.. Apple has taken the redesign seriously and has added icons to each of the parameterscurrently in iOS 17 and in previous versions only the text was present without any other type of customization or icon.
Also Other parameters that were in the main part of Settings have been moved to the General section or directly to the Apps section. It is worth mentioning that Apple redesigned the start of several parameters by adding large headers with a short introduction describing each of them and what can be done, including links to more information.

Finding an item in this revamped Settings app will be easier and more intuitive The results have also changed their appearance. At the top, by simply invoking the text box, icons related to the app appear and suggestions appear at the bottom.
These changes are part of the silent solutions that Apple uses and that are usually secret at its events. and they don’t dominate the presentation. We as users have to discover them and find each of the differences and improvements that they implement year after year. Without a doubt, the most anticipated will be Apple Intelligence beyond any other change in the customization of iOS 18.
