With new iPhones rumored to make an appearance, it's likely that Tuesday's Apple event will see a rehash of all the features coming to iOS devices new and old in iOS 7. In case you need a recap before the other shoe drops, here's a primer on exactly what we know about iOS 7 so far.
New interface, new gestures
If you've seen anything at all about iOS 7, you'll have noticed that it's very different in appearance than any previous version of Apple's mobile operating system. There are new fonts, icons and interfaces have a flatter look, the OS plays with layers, and there's not a scrap of rich Corinthian leather to be found.
Every stock iOS app has gotten a redesign, with some of the most significant coming to Safari, Calendar, Camera, Mail, and Messages. System features have gotten major overhauls, too; even the lock screen has been vastly simplified, with edge-to-edge wallpaper and a design that foregoes widgets and buttons for straight-up text labels.
A few new gestures are present in iOS 7, too. You can swipe up from the bottom of the screen for Control Center, pull down on the home screen for Spotlight, and swipe upward on an app while in the multitasking interface to force-quit an app.
