Apple's newest major software update for the iPhone and iPad, called iOS 11, is now available for everyone to download.

The new software offers plenty of marquee changes, including wide support for augmented reality apps and other improvements to the camera software

iOS 11 allows you to instantly transfer your settings from one Apple device to another.

When you set up a new iPhone or iPad running iOS 11, you'll be able to just hold the device next to a Mac or any other Apple product you own to transfer your settings.

One of the first changes you'll probably notice in iOS 11 is the new way notifications are managed.

To clear all of your notifications at once, you just tap and hold on the "X" button.

Another change you may notice is that Apple has hidden the ability to manually set the brightness of your screen.

The option can now be found under General > Accessibility > Display Accommodations in the Settings app.
