Each year, at the beginning of June, Apple meets developers around the world for a week of discussion. ThisWWDCis also an opportunity to present the new updates imagined by Apple during the year. This year again, WWDC should be one of the highlights of the year for the apple brand.
iOS 19: Make the iPhone (really) smart
While the arrival of iOS 18 last September was seen as "one of the most important updates in the story" of Apple,iOS 19 should be part of the same line. The update should, in all likelihood, take up the main principles dictated by iOS 18, and go even further.
The main novelty should be in Siri. The iPhone vocal assistant would have the right to atotal overhaul, making him much smarter. It should become a real virtual companion, in the same way as Chatgpt can be today. To achieve such a result, Apple's teams are working onA language model(LLM) capable of understanding us and generating natural, spontaneous and factually exact responses.
For the time being Apple is said to be testing this new version of Siri in an application, apart from the classic ecosystem. To facilitate use,This new Siricould nevertheless take the place of the current vocal assistant.

With iOS 18, Apple completely revised the operation of its "photos" application, to the dismay of certain users. With iOS 19, it is the "camera" application that is at the heart of many rumors. It could get closer to the design used by Apple inVisionOS.
This new design would offer more space on the screen with translucent contextual menus that can disappear from a gesture. We have already seen such menus in Visionos and it is quite likely to see such a functionality doing your arrival with iOS 19. It is of public notoriety that Apple wants to bring together visionos devices from the rest of its range.
Apple Intelligence: for all, for everything
The great novelty of this year 2024 was undoubtedly the arrival of Apple Intelligence. If the functionality is still not welcome in Europe (it should arrive in spring), it could be replaced by a version 2.0 in the fall. Apple would have planned to add a touch of artificial intelligence in several services, starting with Apple Music.

Other native services should benefit from the arrival of Apple Intelligence with iOS 19. It will then be interesting to see if these features are always limited to the iPhone 15 pro and more recent, or if Apple decides to open the use of His artificial intelligence to other iPhone.
Compatibility
The arrival of iOS 19 should, like every year,Return the question of the compatibility of old iPhone to the table. If iOS 18 had already allowed several models to hold one more year, iOS 19 should be good news for old smartphones. Here is the full list of phones that should be eligible for update.
- iPhone 15 (all models)
- iPhone 14 (all models)
- iPhone 13 (all models)

Obviously, the arrival of iOS 19 will not be limited to these changes alone. Journalist Mark Gurman, Apple specialist, is nevertheless quite cautious with regard to this new cuvée.He explainsthat a “significant number of features” initially planned for this year should ultimately only be released in the spring of 2026.
Apple has become used in recent years to present a lot of features, but to deploy them one by one during the year. Thus options, presented last June during WWDC, are still not present in iOS 18. They will arrive in the coming months.
If the features present in iOS 19 are still unknown, the release date for the update is an equally important mystery. And for good reason, the Apple teams are still working on the release of features for iOS 18. The arrival of iOS 19 is not on the agenda and certain corridors' noise suggest that putting up to datecould happen later than expected.
Apple has accustomed us to a WWDC in early June, but it could shift this first highlight of the year at the end of the month, or even in early July. Thus leaving time to its teams to switch between iOS 18 (which it is still necessary to finish) and the final development of iOS 19.
