Last year, Apple’s WWDC keynote highlighted the company’s ambitious strides in AI. This year, the company toned down its emphasis on Apple Intelligence and concentrated on updates to its operating systems, services, and software, introducing a new aesthetic it calls “ Liquid Glass ” along with a new naming convention.

Apple revealed a bunch of changes coming to iOS, iPadOS and macOS later this year; here's what you need to know.

The developer update arrives alongside a redesign of Apple’s user interfaces. A new “Liquid Glass” visual aesthetic and a simplified versioning system — iOS 26, macOS 26, and so on — aim to create a more cohesive and modern user experience across devices.
