Apple has officially announced the date for its annual Worldwide Developer’s Conference (WWDC), where it announces the latest and greatest software updates for many of its platforms, including the iPhone, iPad, Mac, and Apple Watch.
This year, the event kicks off on June 9th with the public keynote, followed by a developers conference that will run until June 13. This is shaping up to be a big event for Apple, with sweeping changes in the iPhone user experience, including redesigned icons, menus, and apps. And we might even see a hardware announcement (but likely not any new MacBooks, as we just got an M4 MacBook Air).
Updates to all major Apple operating systems
As this is a developer conference, we can expect to see updates announced for iOS, iPadOS, macOS, watchOS, tvOS, and even the Vision Pro’s visionOS.
These will almost certainly include new features and functionality, although at time of writing, there aren’t any concrete details about new features.
However, one thing that has been confirmed by multiple reputed leakers is a visual overhaul of the Apple interface that spans the iPhone, iPad, and the Mac.
iOS 19 and the new “glassy” interface
The big focus this year is on the iPhone interface. Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman has reported that a “dramatic software overhaul” is coming to the iPhone, iPad, and Mac, and now we might have an idea of what that will look like.
That’s because sometimes reliable leaker Jon Prosser reportedly gotten an early look at the iOS 19 redesign, and managed to recreate some of what he saw. He refers to it as a “glassy” interface, calling it “more rounded aesthetic and glossy, almost glassy styling” with the interface’s edges popping up from the screen. The key example of this being a new keyboard design that makes it look like it’s floating on top of the screen.
The new look, according to Prosser, will be seen across the whole OS, from notifications to popups. The overall design will be similar to the newly released Apple Invites app.
Gurman, on the other hand, believes that the redesign will be much bigger, with new round home screen icons and redesigned elements leading to a fresh look for all built-in Apple apps.
The artwork for WWDC 2025 lends some credence to these rumors. The “25” in the image is heavily inspired by the visionOS interface, with glass-like elements.
macOS won’t be left behind
From what we know so far, macOS 16 will also get the same overhauled look, or at least some version of it. This will lead to more visual consistency between the Mac and iPhone.
According to Mark Gurman, macOS will feature more of a translucent look, similar to visionOS and what’s coming to iOS 19. This will extend to apps, menus, and system features like popups as well.
A wild Mac Pro may appear
The Mac Pro is the last Mac to not be updated with the M3 or M4 generation, currently boasting the M2 Ultra chip.The Mac Pro is rumored to be updated with a new M3 Extreme chip that would surpass the M3 Ultra chip found in the latest Mac Studio refresh.
The rumors, once again reported on by Gurman, say that the Mac Pro is supposed to be updated sometime in the first half of the year, and it’s possible that Apple will at least unveil it at WWDC. The WWDC keynote usually does not feature any hardware announcements, but it does make exceptions from time to time.
