Apple hasn’t made any significant changes in a very long time. iOS appearance. It was updated globally with the release of iOS 7, and then individual elements were simply perfected. The latest major innovation in terms of appearance can be called new Control Center introduced in iOS 11. Since then, all operating systems for the iPhone look like two peas in a pod, and you won’t be able to determine purely externally what kind of iOS is in front of you. But, apparently, we won’t have long to wait for new design solutions in iOS.

In iOS 18, which will be presented at WWDC 2024, Apple may use some design options that are already used in visionOS на Apple Vision Pro. Thus, the company will bring these devices closer to each other. What iOS 18 will ultimately look like and which iPhones will receive the update.

What iOS 18 will look like

iOS 18 will use a large number of elements from visionOS. Image: macrumors.com

I got information about new design solutions in iOS 18 portal The Verifier. Moreover, it is separately noted that they will be used not only in operating system for iPhone, but also in iPadOS 18. The first thing that catches your eye is that all elements, pop-up menus and search bars have received volume. It feels like they have been squeezed out. The same goes for notifications. If now they are completely flat and have no shadows, then in iOS 18 they seem to float above the screen due to their small volume.

This solution looks really interesting. I have repeatedly seen the opinion that iOS is too flat, and it would be great if it had some volume. As it appears, Apple designers They didn’t try to invent anything and did just that. By the way, such a volume will definitely benefit the search fields. Some users are not even aware of their existence in individual applications, but now they will definitely be noticeable.

But what I definitely question is the change in the shape of the icons. Although they look round in the screenshots shown, I am 99.9% sure that Apple will not move away from the usual square with rounded corners in the iPhone. This element is too strongly associated with the iPhone, and Cupertino understands this very well. However, the idea of ​​​​making iOS 18 more voluminous seems good to me. The system has been in need of a redesign for a long time. Not drastic, but such that it is noticeable.

Portal 9to5Macin turn, puts the whole leak iOS 18 design doubtful. It is claimed that it is more like appearance of the future tvOSwhich has already begun to receive some visionOS-style applications with translucent windows and volumetric controls.

In addition to the new appearance, which may still raise some questions, generative artificial intelligence will definitely appear in iOS 18. Apple Voice Assistant for the first time since 2011, it may seriously become wiser. In addition to this, Siri will receive a new language model that will allow it to more naturally build dialogue and remember context. The latter will make it possible not to repeat the request from the very beginning, which will clearly speed up the process of communication with the assistant.

In addition, almost all built-in applications will receive support for neural networks. Somewhere it will consist of checking spelling and writing style, and somewhere it will allow you to competently build a dialogue and offer better predictive input, accurately guessing the next word in a sentence or phrase. The only question is whether it will all work in Russian. But we will only be able to find out about this in June, when a company from Cupertino shows iOS 18 на WWDC 2024.

The old iPhone XR, iPhone XS and iPhone XS Max are highly likely to retire. This shouldn’t be particularly surprising. Firstly, this year it will be six years since their release. And secondly, although iOS 17 runs on these devices without any brakes, it feels like at some points these iPhones are working at the limit of their capabilities.
