This past year, Apple overhauled its design language across all of its major software platforms with the introduction of Liquid Glass. That dramatic redesign, coupled with a number of jam-packed released over the past couple years, has resulted in many Apple users complaining about the overall quality of Apple software.<\/p>\n
According to today\u2019s Power On newsletter<\/a>, Apple might finally be stepping back from new features, and instead focusing on underlying performance improvements. Let\u2019s discuss.<\/p>\n iOS 27 to be a \u2018Snow Leopard-style update\u2019<\/p>\n Per Bloomberg\u2019s Mark Gurman<\/a>, Apple is taking a step back from launching any major new software features at WWDC26. This applies to iOS 27 and macOS 27, as well as all of the companies smaller platforms, like watchOS, tvOS, and visionOS. <\/p>\n For the first time since iOS 12, Apple will be focusing on software quality, rather than flashy new features:<\/p>\n Aiming to improve the software, engineering teams are now combing through Apple\u2019s operating systems, hunting for bloat to cut, bugs to eliminate, and any opportunity to meaningfully boost performance and overall quality. Like Snow Leopard set the groundwork for future overhauls and new types of Macs, iOS 27 will lay the foundation for\u00a0foldable iPhones<\/a>\u00a0and\u00a0other new hardware<\/a>.<\/p>\n Apple won\u2019t quite launch \u2018zero new features\u2019 like they claimed with OS X Snow Leopard back in 2009, however. According to Gurman, Apple still plans to release a number of new AI features with iOS 27, so the company doesn\u2019t fall behind in the AI race.<\/p>\n Currently, two major AI features are expected for iOS 27: Apple\u2019s new AI health agent, launching alongside a potential Apple Health+ subscription, as well as the companies first AI-powered web search project.<\/p>\n Additional iOS 27 features<\/p>\n Outside of the heavy focus on software quality and other AI enhancements, Gurman also outlines three additional things to look out for with iOS 27:<\/p>\n Enhancements for enterprise users<\/p>\n \u2018Bespoke\u2019 features for users in emerging markets<\/p>\n Design tweaks for Liquid Glass<\/p>\n Developing\u2026<\/p>\n My favorite Apple accessory recommendations:<\/p>\n Follow Michael:\u00a0X\/Twitter<\/a>,\u00a0Bluesky<\/a>,\u00a0Instagram<\/a><\/p>\n \t\t\t\t FTC: We use income earning auto affiliate links.
