With that being said, one of the highlights of the annual upgrade comes in the form of Personal Voice, which lets users create a unique Personal Voice. 

This, when used alongside the Live Speech feature will allow users to communicate easily with others. What sets it apart is that it takes a couple of minutes for the iPhone to create a digital variant of your voice, which is then stored and encrypted locally. Do note that this isn’t necessarily a Siri replacement, rather it makes communication easier for those who struggle to speak.

6. Make sure your phone is charging and try to sit in a quiet environment.

To start the process you will be given certain phrases that you need to read out and this is a part of voice training. Once you have recorded all the phrases then your voice can be accessed.

Do note that Apple mentions that it might take approximately 15 minutes to create your voice, but it might vary. Some report multiple days, whilst for some it is processed overnight. To check the status, you can go to the Personal Voice option on the Accessibility page.

4. Switch on Live Speech if it is not on.

5. Click on the Voices option and then choose your created Personal voice.

In case your Personal Voice does not show up, maybe try restarting the smartphone or wait for the device to process your voice. Some report it to be accurate but, not as real as your own voice, so, you do not need to worry about it sounding too much like you. 

To use Live Speech, you need to triple-press the lock button and the menu will pop up. And you can select Live Speech from this and you will be shown all your saved phrases.

iOS 17 also comes with a new feature: NameDrop which lets you bring your smartphone closer to another iPhone and AirDrop your contact information. This will also be coming to Apple Watch. While AirDrop will also facilitate sharing of larger files, but that is coming later this year.

For messages, the Messages app is also being overhauled, with a new, clean UI for accessing apps, cameras and others, hidden behind a + button. Once you click on it, you can access Apple Cash, audio notes, camera, photos and other features. Emoji characters will now be changed to stickers as well. A new ML model will improve autocorrect across iOS and its supported apps, making those texts easier to type when you are in a rush.
