WWDC 2025 is just a week away. Once again, Apple's Worldwide Developer Conference is expected to be one of the company's most important keynotes, even though Apple hopes to shift the spotlight away from artificial intelligence features.One major rumored change is the renaming of iOS 19 to iOS 26, as Apple aims to bring consistency across all its operating systems. Right now, Apple offers iOS 18, along with macOS 15, visionOS 2, and watchOS 11. By later this year, all major operating systems are expected to adopt the 26 suffix. This change will also come with a major design overhaul for all platforms.That said, the company still plans to unveil new Apple Intelligence features for iOS 26.
