About a week ago Apple confirmed that the iOS 11 update would be released on the 19th of September, and sure enough it has. For those who own compatible iOS devices, you will be pleased to learn that the update will be available for download today, so you can wait for your iOS device to prompt you, or you can go to your phone’s Settings -> General -> Software Update and try and pull it manually.

However if you don’t see it yet, you might have to wait since we expect that the rollout to all the markets around the world could take a while, so maybe give it a couple of hours and try again, but regardless its availability is still set for today. iOS 11 is the latest iOS update for iPhones and iPads and is the successor to last year’s iOS 10.

It will introduce a bunch of new features, such as a redesigned Control Center, a redesigned App Store, a new file manager (finally) that will allow iOS users to better manage their files, and there’s even a new Do Not Disturb mode that can be automatically be enabled while driving and can send automated replies to users during that time.

It will also feature an improved Siri and a new feature for Apple Pay that will let users send money to each other, although as previously noted this particular feature is only expected to arrive this fall.
