Apple is set to launch its annual Worldwide Developers Conference (WWDC) 2025 from June 9 to June 13. This exciting event will kick off with a keynote presentation on June 9 at 10:30 PM IST, where Apple will showcase its latest software updates and features.
You can watch the keynote live on Apple’s official website, YouTube channel, as well as through the Apple TV and Developer apps. The best part? It’s all free and doesn’t require any sign-up! This two-hour keynote usually sets the direction for the entire event, revealing updates for iOS, iPadOS, macOS, watchOS, and more.
One significant change buzzed about this year is the possibility of Apple changing how it names its software versions. Instead of the usual version numbers, Apple might start using the year in its naming. For example, iOS could be called iOS 26, matching the new versions of iPadOS, macOS, and watchOS. This change would bring a consistent naming approach across all its devices, especially with the Vision Pro already running on visionOS 26.
On the design front, Apple fans can expect a fresh look inspired by visionOS’s sleek and transparent interface. This update is internally referred to as Project Solarium and may include new icons, smoother widgets, and a more integrated user experience across devices.
Artificial intelligence (AI) is also taking a prominent role this year. Apple is likely to introduce an upgraded version of Siri, enhanced by on-device generative AI. This new Siri could provide more natural conversations and improved features. Developers can look forward to advanced coding tools that may have been developed in collaboration with AI company Anthropic, making coding easier with natural language capabilities.
In terms of updates, iPadOS 26 might see improved multitasking features that mirror those found in macOS, alongside enhancements for Apple Pencil users. macOS 26 is rumored to include an AI-powered Spotlight and smarter tools in Xcode. Although there might be no new hardware announcements, improvements to visionOS are expected as well.
Overall, WWDC 2025 looks to be a software-focused event that could bring significant changes to Apple’s ecosystem.
