The WWDC 2025 Apple News segment kicks off with a bold rebranding of Apple’s software, renaming iOS, iPadOS, macOS, watchOS, tvOS, and VisionOS to align with the year 2026. The keynote introduces a new unified design language called liquid glass, a UI aesthetic where elements warp and refract light, evoking tangible glass behavior. He presents examples where menu bars can shatter and be used in emergencies, signaling a dramatic shift in visual style. The show highlights a major iPadOS 26 upgrade: a new windowing system that mirrors Mac OS or Windows, moving away from Stage Manager and enabling multiple resizable windows with grab handles, a draggable, snap-friendly interface, and a top menu bar with drop-downs. The iPad gains a more advanced Files app, improved preview and PDF handling, and enhanced background tasks, making tasks like video rendering or PDF annotation more seamless. Mac OS 26 (Tahoe) is showcased with a strengthened Spotlight search, on-device AI integration through shortcuts and new AI models, and deeper customization options for icons, colors, and control center. The keynote also notes broader cross-device capabilities including a phone app on Mac OS, in-game overlays, and extended integration with on-device AI. The segment closes the first part with a callout to the four remaining Intel Macs still supported and how they will receive some of these updates gradually, setting the stage for broader compatibility and performance enhancements.
