Is that… Chief Keef?
I for one will be excited to see something new in iOS if it happens. Been bored.
I’ve been ready for a design update for years. Something new and exciting. The os has essentially looked the same since iOS 7 with only minor visual tweaks.
I like boring. Boring works.
Developers spent 1 week on bug fixing. Color me unimpressed…
Aka it will be filled with bugs and iOS 19 will fix it. And also add features from last year to the ipad 😂
It’s not a good sign when I’m filled with dread instead of excitement at the prospect of an “ambitious” iOS update 🙄
As a long time Apple user, I would be happy with a year of stability prioritization. It has been rough since iOS 16.
Seems like it will be a heavy and bloated os
I always feel like when there’s a major overhaul happens in iOS, expect it to only be stable on the next major version.
It has always been this way since iOS 7. Though, when iOS 11 was released, it was buggy as hell. They then decided to highlight stability on the next version 🤣
Man, the betas for iOS 11 were so buggy that I couldn’t even count them all. It only got good about halfway through the beta cycle. This years and last years beta cycle gave me no problems in contrast.
Tbf this goes for most updates to IOS (and most other operating systems) that are feature updates. Thats why they dont encourage you to move onto the next version until the first security updates come out. I believe when IOS and IpadOS 17 came out I had to go out of my way to select an option that allows you to update to 17.0. The only operating system where this wont be true will be some Linux distros like Debian where its thoroughly tested before any features are added, this means you only get one update every few years though.
They do this with macOS too. For example Lion -> Mountain Lion, or Yosemite -> El Capitan.
I think that macOS releases that focus on “stability” have some permutation of the previous release’s name. For example, Mountain Lion still has “Lion” in the name, and “El Capitan” is a formation within the Yosemite national park.

If the company continues to double both the CPU and graphics configurations with the Ultra, we’re looking at a Mac chip that tops out at an outrageous 32 CPU cores and 80 graphics cores. And as Apple steps up the memory, you could imagine an option with 256 gigabytes.
Sounds like it’s going to be a beast. Imagine what the next step up from Ultra could be…

Groundbreaking updates fr……
Siri needs some love, we want AI everywhere, no bugs, Metal 4, and plenty of speed optimizations. I speak for all of Reddit of course. :)
And we want a proper Reddit app. ;) I speak for all of Reddit of course. :)
I think I’ll update to iOS 17 when iOS 18 comes out lol
How about they focus on fixed their OS and not releasing more features? I still can’t use the reminder widget since iOS 17.
I wonder if this is the first year that we’ll see iOS 18 for new devices only?
TLDR: If Apple attempts to launch iOS 18 with a ‘transformer Siri’ on a range of older devices in September, it’ll likely be a buggy disaster.
So perhaps we’ll see:
- New iPhones get iOS 18 with the ‘ambitious’ transformer AI / Siri stuff (which is obviously what this is).
- With older devices on iOS 17 getting new features that aren’t dependent on this.
AND/OR
- A staggered release, with iOS 18 gradually being made available for older devices as it becomes more optimised and stable.
You could imagine them doing the same for iPadOS and macOS too & for macOS, making the next version Mx processor only.
“Good mooooooooorning !”
