The much-anticipated AI-powered Siri and a redesign are two features of Apple iOS 19, the next mobile operating system for iPhones.

Last year, when Apple released iOS 18, it was hailed as one of the most significant operating system updates for the iPhone in years. But now that the announcement of iOS 19 is only three months away, the tech giant's next software is the focus of the rumor mill. Here is all we currently know about iOS 19, including its release date and additional features.

Mark Gurman of Bloomberg claims that one of the most significant software changes in the company's history will be iOS 19. Additionally, according to the rumor, the upgrade would drastically alter the operating system's appearance.

If accurate, this might indicate the appearance of new system buttons, menus, programs, window components, and icons. According to persons with knowledge of the situation, Gurman suggests that the new design will be somewhat modeled by visionOS, which is Apple's operating system for the Vision Pro MR headset.

For the most part, Apple Intelligence has been quite lacking, but with iOS 19, that might change. Rumor has it that Apple Intelligence will be able to communicate with built-in apps, similar to what Samsung accomplished with the Galaxy S25 series, rather than introducing a slew of new functions.

Regarding Siri, it appears that iOS 19 will include generative AI as the personal assistant. This implies that Siri won't be able to use capabilities like onscreen awareness, personal context, and deeper app integration for several more months. According to reports, Apple is also developing a big language model for Siri, which will likely be included in iOS 20 and put it in competition with programs like ChatGPT, Claude, and Gemini.
