Apple is preparing for a significant overhaul of its operating systems (iOS, iPados and MacOS) which should make their debut later this year with iOS 19, iPados 19 and MacOS 16. According to a report by Bloomberg, This overhaul aims to create a more coherent and simplified user experience on Apple devices by updating various interface elements. Changes will affect icons, menus, applications, windows and system buttons.
The new design should be inspired by the mixed reality headset of Apple, Vision Pro, in particular its visionos. Unlike iOS and macOS, Visionos offers unique design elements such as circular application icons, simpler windows, translucinated panels for navigation and a more accent accent on 3D depth and shadows. However, there could be certain limits, because Visionos is designed for an immersive 3D experience with controls at hand birth. Some features may not be adapted or adaptable to the 2D and macOS 2D interface.
Interestingly, the next software updates (for the Mac and the iPhone both) will bring major changes, not only in terms of design or aesthetics, but also functionality and functionality.
Speaking of the Mac, the update would be the most important since Big Sur, which was published in 2020. The next update – MacOS 16 – will have even more impact, indicating crucial improvements. Meanwhile, for the iPhone, the update is compared to iOS 7 – published in 2013 – because it was a major overhaul of the iPhone operating system, bringing a new design and new features. However, the next update (iOS 19) should be just as transformative for the iPhone.
The potential design / software upgrade seems to be valid, since the company whose company is adapted to Cupertino has more than 2.35 billion active devices (including iphones, iPads and Macs) in the world during the first quarter budget of 2025.
Back to expected upgrades, Apple should announce these changes during its global conference for developers (WWDC) in June 2025, although the exact date has not yet been announced. Development comes at a time when last week, Tech Titan began to test a new functionality fueled by AI in iOS 18.4 (currently in public beta) which will automatically generate AI ‘Summary of summaries of applications review. This feature is fueled by Apple Intelligence.
However, everything does not fall in favor of the technology giant. Apple recently announced an indefinite delay In the publication of its AI improvements to Siri, originally planned for iOS 18.4. Siri’s delayed features were intended to make the assistant more personalized and capable of performing tasks in and between applications. This delay also assigned the launch of the company’s smart home mood.
