‘iOS 19 is no longer coming’ (This is why Apple stops)

Rumors say that Apple no longer comes with iOS 19 and stops. But what is the tech giant planning?

‘iOS 19 is no longer coming: this is why Apple stops’

There are now several rumors that Apple intends to skip iOS 19. Instead, the tech giant wants to go to iOS 26 immediately. According to the messages, Apple does this to bring iOS more in line with the calendar year. That means that next September (in 2026) will not be iOS 20, but iOS 27 will make its appearance.

Incidentally, this name change of the operating system will not only happen to the iPhone. Ipados, macOS, Watchos, TVOS and Visionos must also believe it.

The new name for the operating system therefore has a number of advantages. This makes it a lot easier to recognize for which year a certain version of iOS has been made. Furthermore, the confusion becomes less if all versions of the operating system are paralyzed over all devices. You no longer have to wonder if iOS 19, iPados 19 and Watchos 12 belong together, because they all get version 26.

The step to iOS 26 can also mean that Apple is planning to show that this version of iOS is really a big leap forward. And that this version of the operating system will also get a lot of new functions.

You can expect this from the next iOS version

Apple gives iOS a big makeover this year. According to various rumors, the design of iOS 19 will take over many of the looks of Visionos (the operating system of the Vision Pro). You should think of transparent windows, colorful backgrounds and extra large buttons that immediately catch the eye.

Are you curious? You can already view a taste of the Apple’s invitations app. The transparent frameworks and lively colors are prominently present in this.

In addition, there is good news for everyone with an iPhone on which iOS 18 is. Various recent rumors say that all iPhones that can now run iOS 18 can also handle the new version of the operating system. There are no iPhones this year.
