Apple development in 2026 is all about the "Liquid Glass" redesign and the democratization of on-device AI. While we wait for Siri to reach its full potential via Gemini integration, agentic LLMs are already changing how we write and refactor SwiftUI.

Long running background tasks make the iPad closer to a true professional workstation. This is a huge addition! #WWDC25
We're very excited for the new windowing system in iPadOS. It's bringing iPadOS a lot closer to macOS and letting us get the full benefits of macOS style windowing with the flexibility of iPadOS apps. #WWDC25
These visionOS improvements will likely make it easier to swallow the price of the Vision Pro. Being able to share the Vision Pro means that companies can share devices between multiple users. #WWDC25
Live Activities are increasingly becoming more common on iOS and now they are extended to macOS. There are some very clever use cases out there. Start thinking about how you can integrate them with your apps! #WWDC25
Visual Intelligence is a really neat feature and is an opportunity for content creators to rethink how they present media to take advantage of the lookup features provided by the operating system. #WWDC25
Apple has a real shot at finding a primary role in Gaming in the console space, we continue to see a trickle from them into the space with the new Games focused app. #WWDC25
I don't often say this but this iOS version might be worth running on my real device during beta, lots of cool stuff buried in there so far. #WWDC25
There are lots of little niceties in iOS beyond the new design; specifically features around communication, CarPlay and more. We're super excited for the communication aspects like Hold Assist and group chat changes! #WWDC25
Apple's new versioning system for their OSes makes so much more sense (and will help us remember what version we're on). We can't wait for iOS 26, iPadOS 26, macOS 26, tvOS 26, watchOS 26, and visionOS 26. #WWDC25
Apple is going all in on UI/UX redesign for all their platforms. The last time we saw an update like this was with iOS 7, which took many users time to get used to. We think Apple is better set up this time around for a design update of this magnitude. #WWDC25
On device LLM access with Foundation Models framework sounds awesome! If Apple keeps those up to date frequently, then it would be super useful for many apps that just need a little AI assistance without integrating with costly APIs for ChatGPT or other online LLMs. #WWDC25
Apple Intelligence APIs is going to unlock a lot of awesome new app features far beyond what we can foresee today #WWDC25
Nice hair, Craig! #WWDC25 Now let's delve into what's new!
Here we are, 10 minutes out from learning about Apple’s strategy for the next year. Things we’re excited about include AR/VR, possibly redesigned UX, and improved developer tools!
#WWDC25 is here! Get ready for the big reveal of the next-gen Apple software updates. Stay tuned right here for live coverage and insights from our expert team of lifelong Apple engineers, designers, and insiders. Don’t miss out! #MobileDevelopment
