The same anonymous source that goes by the name Analyst941 on Twitter who shared the displayed lyrics and font customization on iOS 17’s lock last week has recently posted renders of the new Wallpaper section. It should well be noted that the images are visualizations of the account coming from the information it has collected and seen, so it’s impossible to tell what the actual changes will look like.
Shareable Wallpaper presets on iOS 17
Based on what we can piece together, the change will be minor to modest, at least on the Wallpaper, with the most notable is a new grid view button at the bottom corner of the main dashboard. Navigating further to this view shows wallpapers arranged in three columns with an individual delete button for each entry. More importantly, it is said that rearranging the wallpapers is possible.
At the same time, there are now three action buttons on the dashboard, including the option to share, which could possibly indicate that iOS 17 will support shareable wallpaper layout or preset. This feature was already reported before, although this is the first time it is being depicted.

Furthermore, the leaker also showed the mockups for the refreshed Apple Wallet application. Evidently, Cards and Passes have each a separate section that can be selected right on the top area wile a new navigation bar is located at the bottom housing buttons like Keys, IDs, and Orders, among others.
Meanwhile, the summary tab for Apple’s Health is mentioned to be updated with a focus on graphics over text. In the unfinished render, it only presents the square widgets which could likely sport graphical data at a glance or overview.

Beyond the wallpaper and a couple of apps, the Control Center is expected to be drastically changed as well. However, there have not been any substantial clues on how this is going to look like.
