While Apple unveiled iOS 26 at WWDC 2025 on Monday, there were many rumors that surfaced ahead of the event, including the new name for the operating system, a dedicated gaming app, and a virtual health coach.

Apple confirmed at its 2025 Worldwide Developers Conference ( WWDC) on Monday that its new operating system would be called iOS 26, instead of the previously expected iOS 19. It marks a total rebrand for Apple's iOS that will update annually — get it, next year is 2026.

It's safe to say Apple Intelligence hasn't landed in the way Apple likely hoped it would. However, that's not stopping the company from continuing to iterate on its suite of AI features.
