iPados 19

In 2025, iPados 19 is the most important software update for the iPad. The expectations for the update are high, because major changes are expected. According to rumors, Apple is working on a new interface for a number of operating systems, including iOS, macOS and iPados. The design of iPados 19 becomes completely different and probably takes over many elements of Visionos.

That means that we will see more transparent frameworks at iPados 19. In addition, the symbols of all apps are adjusted, which may take a round shape for the first time. That is striking, because all applications in both iOS and iPados are still square. According to rumors, these are not all changes yet, Apple reportedly brings a number of functions of macOS to iPados this year.

Influences of macOS

The usually reliable Apple connoisseur Mark Gurman expects that iPados not only takes over elements from Visionos, but also from the operating system for the Mac (book). These adjustments are mainly reflected in the productivity of the iPad, it becomes easier to multitask with the tablet. Gurman still leaves in the middle what changes in iPados 19 it is.

According to Gurman, users also get more options when opening applications. You may be able to use multiple apps at the same time and open them next to each other. This is already possible in macOS, so that you can work with multiple programs at the same time and quickly switch between apps. With iPados 19 this is probably also possible, which ensures that you can multitask much more easily.

Release of iPados 19

With iPados we see very big changes in 2025. The operating system has a completely new design and takes over a number of handy functions from macOS. The operating system of the iPad is therefore completely different, but the release of iPados 19 is still waiting. Apple only releases the new software version in September, as well as the new iPhones and Apple Watches from 2025 appear.

We know what changes Apple is making at iPados much earlier, the company already presents the update in June. That month, Apple organizes the WWDC, the annual event where the largest software updates are unveiled. This year iOS, iPados, macOS and probably also Watchos will receive a new interface.
