Apple officially released iOS 18 at WWDC a few weeks ago, showcasing new features such as a redesigned home screen and Apple Intelligence. As expected, Apple has already started developing iOS 19, macOS 16, watchOS 12, and visionOS 3 for next year, according to Bloomberg.
The initial rumors about iOS 19 come from Mark Gurman's latest Power On newsletter. He revealed that Apple has "officially begun development on its major operating systems for 2025." While it may seem early, Gurman emphasized that this aligns with Apple's typical software development timeline.
The internal codenames for each system are:
- · iOS 19: "Luck"
- · macOS 16: "Cheer"
- · watchOS 12: "Nepali"
- · visionOS 3: "Discovery"
However, specific plans and feature details for Apple's software updates next year are still unknown.
Apple has officially entered the development phase for its major operating systems in 2025, including iOS 19 ("Luck"), macOS 16 ("Cheer"), watchOS 12 ("Nepali"), and visionOS 3 ("Discovery"). While this year's new versions have yet to be fully released, it is Apple's usual practice to begin testing software for its upcoming hardware products.
