Apple shares iOS 10 details - here's what's new

Right from the off, you'll notice a change. The lockscreen has been redesigned, adding rich messages, interactive live status updates with apps such as Uber, and shortcuts so that you can quickly access the camera and music apps.

Meanwhile, on the homescreen, widgets are being upgraded and 3D touch provides more information for selected apps, including Apple's own activity app.
