The best washing machines are awfully clever, but I'm not: you'll often find me looking at the label on clothes wondering what the hell a particular laundry symbol means. So thank goodness for iOS 17, which is bringing a genuinely useful feature to every compatible iPhone: it's adding laundry symbols to Visual Lookup on your phone.
If you’re not already familiar with it, Visual Lookup enables you to find out more about the subject of a photo in apps such as Photos, Notes, Mail or Messages. For example if I take a photo of my greyhound, Visual Lookup enables me to research her breed; if I take a photo of a mystery plant, Visual Lookup tells me what I’m looking at. And in iOS 17, Visual Lookup will tell me if it’s okay to tumble dry a top.
