We teased this a bit in a preview video recently, but augmented reality is going to play a huge role in iOS 11. It’ll let you overlay digital objects on top of the real world.

Imagine watching a rocket land in your back yard with your kids, for example, viewing the whole event through your iPhone screen as if it was real. Ikea has demoed another app that’ll let you place and see furniture exactly how it will look inside your home before you buy it, too.

Apple hasn’t said when iOS 11 will launch for all iPhones and iPads just yet, but we will learn more during the company’s iPhone 8 event on Sept. 12.
