What’s being announced at WWDC? Every year, Apple uses WWDC to reveal its new major software updates.This year, there are two especially noteworthy details to note: every new OS version is expected to receive a redesign and Apple is rebranding its OS updates with new year-based naming Normally we would expect iOS 19, macOS 16, and so on to be unveiled.But per Mark Gurman, instead Apple plans to unify all its new updates with the ‘26’ branding—think 2026, but a little in advance like car models.
So iOS 26, macOS 26, iPadOS 26, visionOS 26, watchOS 26, and tvOS 26 are part of Apple’s plans.We may even see a brand new homeOS unveiled, though that’s less certain since it will come with new hardware that likely won’t launch until later this year.Outside of the new naming and redesigns, Apple is expected to show off powerful Siri upgrades, new third-party AI integrations, an AirPods software upgrade, a pre-installed Games app, and more.
