This year, Apple will launch the new iOS version, iOS 16. iOS 16 will be the successor to the current iOS 15, and will come with several new features and improvements. The operating system is now reported to provide new ways to interact with the system and some “fresh Apple apps,” Bloomberg Apple expert Mark Gurman said.
According to a report in the “Power On” newsletter, Gurman says iOS 16 will provide new ways to interact with the system and some “fresh Apple apps.” Gurman has also offered some more information on what Apple has in store for the upcoming release of iOS and iPadOS that will be announced in the coming weeks during the company’s Worldwide Developer Conference (WWDC).
Gurman said iOS 16 will not bring very significant cosmetic changes, but it will include new ways of interacting and some “fresh Apple apps.” There are also expectations that Apple will bring some new widgets to iOS 16, as they have mostly been untouched since its launch in iOS 14.

“While I don’t expect Apple to present a full redesign of the software, there should be major changes across the system, new ways of interacting and some fresh Apple apps. The news about watchOS 9 will be significant as well,” Gurman was quoted as saying.
He also added that WatchOS 9 will be a significant update over the past year’s WatchOS 8. He had previously reported that a revamped notification system and new health and fitness tracking fefatures are in the works for iOS 16.
Apple is expected to reveal iOS 16 during the WWDC 2022 next month, and it will be rolled out later this year, possibly around the time the company launches the iPhone 14 series.
