WWDC26

See What’s New in iOS 27

Highlights from the WWDC26 Keynote.

The next generation of Apple Intelligence and Siri. New features to help parents create safe digital experiences for kids. And an expansive set of platform improvements, including design updates and performance enhancements. The WWDC26 Keynote gave us a glimpse of groundbreaking features coming to iOS 27. Here’s a recap.


All-new Siri AI

Siri AI is powered by Apple Intelligence and more helpful than ever. Get more done every day with richer answers, natural conversations, and a new dedicated app. You can ask for an in-depth plan, feedback on a document, or help with creative brainstorming.


Apple Intelligence across your apps

Apple Intelligence makes your everyday apps smarter and more useful – from browsing the web in Safari to expressing your creativity with Image Playground. You can also compose and edit emails in your own writing style, or let the Passwords app navigate through account pages and update eligible compromised passwords.


More protections for parents

iOS is a safe and trusted platform for kids and teens, with powerful, intuitive, industry-leading child safety features that help parents and guardians keep kids safe – while preserving their privacy. You decide what content your kids can see, who they’re allowed to communicate with, when they can use their devices, and more, as you help guide them on their digital journey. And new features provide parents with guidance based on expert health research to help them decide what’s right for their kids.


An even more refined design

Updates to Liquid Glass ensure exceptional readability with more uniform refraction and improved contrast. A new slider lets you easily customise how Liquid Glass looks, from ultra-clear to fully tinted.


Expansive improvements

From faster AirDrop transfers to more relevant search results in Mail, enhancements throughout iOS 27 make the experience more responsive, reliable, and delightful. More seamlessly move between mobile and Wi-Fi networks, and launch apps faster than ever.


New dynamic app grid on Apple Watch

The new dynamic app grid automatically highlights Siri-suggested apps, including your most popular and recently used ones – with the Siri app always front and centre.
