WWDC 2025: all the news from Apple’s annual developer conference

The stakes are higher than usual at this year’s WWDC. Major Apple Intelligence features the company teased at last year’s conference are stalled out, the company got a stern talking-to from a federal judge a couple of months ago over its App Store policies, and then there’s everything going on with tariffs. It’s not an entirely enviable position, but the show goes on.

Apple announced a slew of platform operating system updates with its latest design language, called Liquid Glass, and a new yearly naming scheme. iOS 26, macOS Tahoe 26, tvOS 26, watchOS 26, visionOS 26, and more. It’s also opening up access to on-device Apple Intelligence for app developers and plugging ChatGPT into Image Playground.

A new Games app connects you to your friends, AirPods have added camera controls, and the planned update for Spotlight “looks like a power user dream,” according to David Pierce. Oh, and did we mention the multitasking improvements on the way for iPadOS?
