The company is aiming to \u2018tidy\u2019 its codebase, upgrade older apps, and tweak Liquid Glass \u2013 and as a result, battery life should hopefully improve.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s been <a href=\"https:\/\/9to5mac.com\/2025\/11\/23\/apple-focusing-on-software-quality-improvements-ios-27-next-year-report\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">previously reported <\/a>that iOS 27 would mostly focus on performance improvements and stability. However, today\u2019s report includes three key details on how the company will accomplish that:<\/p>\n<p>Removing \u2018scraps\u2019 of old code<\/p>\n<p>Some interface \u2018tweaks\u2019, but nothing massive<\/p>\n<p>Subtly upgrading old apps to \u2018let them perform better\u2019<\/p>\n<p>In the report, Gurman describes iOS as \u2018a bit of the mess under the hood\u2019. If you\u2019ve used any of Apple\u2019s software in recent years \u2013 you\u2019ve definitely noticed an uptick in bugs, poor performance at times, and less battery life. Apple\u2019s software quality used to be one of its strong suits, so the recent decay has been disappointing at times to say the least.<\/p>\n<p>With all of this code cleanup across the board, Gurman reports that engineers are also working towards providing better battery life:<\/p>\n<p>The company hopes that underlying code changes will result in efficiency gains that will end up giving users more juice. If Apple does indeed pull off these improvements, it\u2019s unclear if the company will market the changes \u2014\u00a0or if this is just a benefit of cleaning things up.<\/p>\n<p>Lastly, Apple is also focusing on improving its AI features in iOS 27. Recently, Bloomberg reported that some of Apple\u2019s key Siri promises made at WWDC 2024 <a href=\"https:\/\/9to5mac.com\/2026\/02\/11\/apple-reportedly-pushing-back-gemini-powered-siri-features-beyond-ios-26-4\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">would be delayed<\/a> to iOS 27.
