Apple has officially announced its upcoming Worldwide Developers Conference (WWDC25) scheduled from June 9 to June 13, 2025. This year’s event promises major software updates and fresh insights into the company’s technology roadmap.
Year-Based Operating System Naming
- iQOO Neo12 Confirmed for October With 2K 185Hz Display
- No Man’s Sky Comes to iPhone and iPad on October 28
- Apple HomeView Launches With Siri AI and Smart Home Features
- OnePlus Ace 7 Pro Leaked: Built-in Cooling Fan, 185Hz OLED & 200MP Camera
- Redmi K100 Clears 3C with 100W Charging & 10,000mAh Battery Leak
Ahead of WWDC25, reports from Bloomberg reveal Apple’s plan to rename its operating systems to reflect the release year instead of traditional version numbers. For example:
- iOS 19 will become iOS 26
- iPadOS 19 will be iPadOS 26
- macOS 16 will shift to macOS 26
- Similarly, watchOS, tvOS, and visionOS will adopt the “26” suffix
This change aligns Apple’s OS naming convention with the calendar year, similar to how automotive manufacturers label their new models. It signals a streamlined approach to OS identification moving forward.
What to Expect at WWDC25
Besides unveiling the new operating system lineup, Apple is expected to showcase its latest advancements in artificial intelligence. The event will highlight how AI integrates across Apple’s ecosystem, driving innovation and enhanced user experiences.
The WWDC25 Keynote is set for June 9, 2025, at 10 AM PT, followed by the Platforms State of the Union at 1 PM PT the same day. Apple promises a week filled with technology breakthroughs and developer-centric sessions.
