On the other hand, Jewiss also posted a new tweet stating the details that the anonymous Apple source disclosed during the interview.

"When I said I'd seen some iOS 15, I'm not going to disappoint," said the news writer.

Jewiss also listed the things that Apple fans can expect from the new iOS 15. Here are the exact details:

  • Food tracking and other new features in Health
  • New notification settings and look on lock screen
  • Dark Mode UI tweaks
  • Messages app tweaks
  • Confirmation of UI changes from previous screenshot rumor

In the list above, you can see that the new Food Tracking feature is included. Although this is the case, there is no confirmation yet about the exact capabilities of the Health app's upcoming feature.

But, some rumors claimed that the new Food Tracking feature in the upcoming iOS version could allow users to log the food they eat, offer calorie tracking functionality, as well as provide nutritional details.

Eligible Apple Devices

As of the moment, Apple hasn't confirmed the devices that can run the upcoming iOS 15. However, some speculations claimed that it could run iPhone 6S and other newer models, including the latest iPhone 12.

These rumors said that this could be the case since the current iOS 14 is also available on iPhone 6S and newer iPhone flagships. Although this is the case, USA Today reported that there's still a chance that Apple will limit the eligible smartphones that can run the new iOS 15.
