In today’s edition of Bloomberg’s Power On newsletter, Mark Gurman writes that users should expect updates to the iPhone home screen as part of iOS 18. Although light on details, he says iOS 18 will make the home screen “more customizable”.
Apple apparently believes iOS 18 will be its biggest update ever. AI will be a key focus, with artificial intelligence powered features integrated across the operating system. Apple may also integrate chatbot functionality via Google’s Gemini.
Apple is keen to ‘catch up’ with other tech giants and present a cohesive AI strategy. Gurman says iOS 18 will include a plethora of AI features that “will help manage your daily life”.
iOS 18 will be announced at WWDC in June, alongside other’s Apple operating systems: iPadOS 18, watchOS 11, visionOS 2, and the new version of macOS.
We are anticipating Apple will confirm the WWDC 2024 date in the next couple of weeks, as March or April is when Apple typically announces the event and sends out invites.
