Apple Prepares Major Overhaul for iOS 19 and iPadOS 19

The updates, expected to launch in September 2025, could introduce a redesigned interface and improved AI capabilities, though some features may be delayed until 2026.

  • iOS 19 and iPadOS 19 are rumored to feature the largest design changes since iOS 7, with a unified look inspired by visionOS, including updated icons, menus, and app interfaces.
  • Apple Intelligence, the company's AI initiative, will expand with a revamped Siri using large language models, although its full capabilities may not arrive until spring 2026.
  • iPadOS 19 is expected to include a redesigned Camera app and other updates to align with Apple's broader software ecosystem for a more cohesive user experience.
  • The updates will likely remove support for older devices, with iPadOS 19 expected to be compatible only with iPad models from 2018 or later.
  • iOS 18.4, set for release in April 2025, may require HomeKit users to upgrade to a newer Home app architecture, discontinuing support for older versions.
