The world of technology never stands still, and Apple is a prime example of this constant progress. With the recent announcement of iOS 18 at WWDC, Apple has already tackled the next stage of its operating systems, namely iOS 19 and Co.!
Apple is known for its advanced operating systems and regular updates. These not only keep the devices up to date with the latest technology, but also constantly bring new features and improvements. While we eagerly await the release of iOS 18, Apple has already started working on its successor. The well-known Bloomberg journalist Mark Gurman has published the first details about iOS 19 in his Power On newsletter.
Early start of development
Like Gurman reported, Apple has officially started development on iOS 19, even though iOS 18 hasn't even been released yet. This may seem early at first glance, but it's in line with Apple's usual software development schedule. The early start allows the company to thoroughly test the new software and ensure it works seamlessly with upcoming hardware.
code names and operating systems
Along with iOS 19, which is codenamed “Luck,” Apple is also working on other operating systems:
- macOS 16: "Cheer"
- watchOS 12: "Nepali"
- visionOS 3: "Discovery"
These codenames often give a small hint about the direction and philosophy behind the updates, even if they don't always directly indicate the new features.
expectations and desires
It's still too early to know specific details about the new features in iOS 19. But the community always has high expectations and a wish list of features they would like to see. After the launch of iOS 18, which brought numerous new features to the home screen and Apple Intelligence, hopes for iOS 19 are high. Perhaps Apple will take some of the wishes that were not yet fulfilled with iOS 18 into account in the next version.
Previous rumors and speculations
In recent years, Apple has often responded to feedback and rumors from the community to improve its operating systems. So it's not surprising that speculation and wishes for iOS 19 are already circulating. Whether these are improved privacy features, new widgets or an even more intelligent Siri remains to be seen.
iOS 19: Apple's next chapter in software development
The development of iOS 19 is an exciting step in Apple's ongoing quest for innovation and improvement. While many details are still unclear, the early start of work shows how serious Apple is about perfecting its software.
