iPhone 8 it has the applications presented on the new screen with a happy cutout iOS 11GM and developers skilled enough to demonstrate everything for users. You can also see in the video clip below and in images like Apple Lossless Audio CODEC (ALAC), thought iPhone 8 with applications that have the titles displayed directly below the cutout, the change being offered with iOS 11, now the applications have bigger titles than in the past anyway.
iPhone 8 will also have the status bar divided into two parts, ears as Apple employees call them, which will display the information we now see on the entire status bar in the old iPhone models. On the left side of the iPhone 8 status bar we will see the information about the time and GPS location, while on the right side we will see the connectivity information, plus those for the battery.
iPhone 8 will cram in the left side of the status bar the time and the icon that tells us if the applications use GPS, these being usually displayed in the center/right. On the right side of the iPhone 8 status bar we will see information about the battery, signal, AirPlane Mode, Bluetooth and Wi-Fi, with animations that make the transition between icons very nice, all of which are displayed on the old iDevices on the left and right status bar.

iPhone 8 will group multiple icons on the right side of the status bar, and animations will be displayed for the moments when we connect the phone to an energy source. Apple thought quite interestingly about this change for the iPhone 8 status bar, but now all these icons will be crammed together in a way that could generate quite a lot of negative comments from the customers of the American company.
iPhone 8 needed a change of this kind because that cut-out in the upper part of the screen did not allow the display of the status bar until the moment of its launch. Apple had no way to give up the status bar, nor how to display information under the cutout, so it completely redid the status bar to display information in those "ears" of the iPhone 8 screen, the employees being quite proud of what they have accomplished.
iPhone 8 has this information revealed thanks to a version of iOS 11 GM that was released "by mistake" by Apple last night. iOS 11 GM will be released on September 12 after the iPhone 8 will be presented to the whole world, and on Tuesday I'm waiting for you on iDevice.ro starting at 19:30 to discuss everything that Apple is going to announce and we still don't know .
