What to Expect from the WWDC 2025 Keynote

If you’ve been following recent rumors, one of the biggest developments is a major overhaul across all of Apple’s operating systems. This includes the introduction of a unified design language and a shift to year-based version naming. For instance, the next version of iOS, which would have been iOS 19, is expected to be renamed iOS 26. This new naming convention will apply across the board—from macOS to watchOS to visionOS.

Apple plans to unify the user experience across all devices starting this year. Expect redesigned icons, updated menus, refreshed apps, new window styles, and system buttons with a more consistent and modern aesthetic. One common design element rumored to be featured heavily is glass-like transparency, as hinted in Apple’s official teasers.

These changes could mark the most significant iPhone UI redesign since iOS 7. For the Mac, the upcoming update might be the most transformative since macOS Big Sur.
