Apple WWDC25: The Announcements That Matter
By Lewis Larcombe|June 10, 2025|0 Comment
Apple’s latest developer showcase wasn’t just a tech nerd’s dream—it was basically the Avengers-level crossover of software updates. Whether you’re an iPhone power user, a die-hard AirPods addict, or someone who just wants your phone to stop autocorrecting “fml” to “fun,” there’s something here for you.
Apple’s finally going full-AI—but not in a “take over the world” way (yet). Apple Intelligence is the shiny new umbrella of on-device generative AI features baked into iOS 26, iPadOS 26, and macOS Tahoe. Expect rewritten emails, summarised notifications, custom emoji (called Genmoji), and a chatbot-powered Siri that may now actually understand what you’re saying. It’s free, but only for newer devices. So if your iPhone wheezes every time you open TikTok, you’re not invited.
Apple swears Siri is no longer the dumbest person in the room. With tighter integration to apps and generative AI smarts, Siri can now do things like edit a photo, schedule an email, and even remember what you asked 10 seconds ago. It’s the Siri you wanted in 2011—only 14 years late.
The most un-Apple thing about Apple Intelligence? It actually connects to the internet. Using something called Private Cloud Compute, your data gets processed in a way that’s supposedly secure and won’t immediately be sold to the nearest ad agency. They even partnered with ChatGPT—but only if you’re okay with it. So yeah, Tim Cook now lets you summon OpenAI from within Siri. What a timeline.
Apple’s Translate app just evolved from a forgotten folder resident to an international interpreter. Thanks to Apple Intelligence, iOS 26 will now translate voice calls, FaceTime chats, and even plain old texts in real time—with spoken translations and on-screen captions. So you can flirt in Spanish, argue in German, or negotiate in Korean, all without butchering the accent.
Sure, Meta and Google have been doing this for a while, but Apple’s version doesn’t require a remote server whispering in the background. It’s all on-device, which means it’s faster, more private, and doesn’t rely on your dodgy Wi-Fi. The catch? It only supports a handful of languages (for now), and it’s limited to one-on-one calls. Still, it’s the closest your iPhone has ever come to becoming a real-life Babel fish.
Apple’s finally giving iOS a fresh coat of paint—or more accurately, a high-gloss, reflective, almost-too-shiny layer of what it calls Liquid Glass. Inspired by the Vision Pro and clearly built for a future where your interface might live on glasses or… your kitchen countertop, this redesign ditches the flat aesthetic we’ve all been staring at since iOS 7. It’s translucent, responsive, and mimics how light bends through actual glass—because why just swipe when you can refract?
This isn’t just some Control Center glow-up. It touches everything: icons, lock screens, menus, alerts, music playback visuals—even your notifications get their own sparkly entrance. App icons now look like they’re floating in fancy cocktail ice, and yes, the UI changes depending on the time of day and what you’re doing, like a moody teenager with style. Also, Apple swears this helps with navigation and clarity. That’s code for “it’s prettier, but also kinda useful.” Bonus: devs can now get in on the fun with new APIs.
The new macOS Tahoe doesn’t do anything radical—it just wants your Mac to feel more like your iPad. The biggest changes include iPhone Mirroring (you can literally control your phone from your Mac now) and full-blown iOS-style notifications. It’s not revolutionary, but it’s very “your laptop’s cooler now” energy.
This one’s kinda genius: through the new Continuity app, your Mac can now wirelessly mirror your iPhone in real-time, right down to the screen unlock. You can reply to messages, check your apps, and creep on your own DMs without ever touching your phone. Absolutely brilliant… until you forget it’s still open during a meeting.
Apple gave AirPods something no one expected—actual utility. With studio-quality audio recording and a camera remote feature, your AirPods Pro 2 (or upcoming AirPods 4) can now act as your portable podcast rig. Press the stem to start a video, press again to stop. You’re basically a one-man production studio, just… with smaller ears.
Apple’s new accessibility features are cool in a “please don’t scan my retinas” way. Eye Tracking lets you navigate your iPhone with just your gaze—no hands required. Pair that with Vocal Shortcuts and Haptic Feedback for music, and suddenly your phone is way more intuitive than you are. Scary? A little. Impressive? Absolutely.
The iPad’s yearly identity crisis continues, but with some actually solid upgrades. You get all the same Apple Intelligence perks as the iPhone, plus a new Tab Bar system that basically makes split-screen multitasking slightly less painful. It’s slowly becoming a MacBook with commitment issues.
Developers can test all this right now. For the rest of us who enjoy broken apps and spontaneous crashes, the public beta drops next month. The full update lands this fall, assuming Apple doesn’t rename everything again before then.
WWDC25 wasn’t just an AI flex—it was Apple confidently saying, “Yes, we’ve been behind. But now we’re behind in a fancier way.” Between smarter Siri, smarter AirPods, and smarter everything, your devices will soon know more about your schedule, your voice, and your selfie angles than you ever will.
Honestly? Not bad, Apple. Not bad at all.
