Apple June 9 event: What to expect from today’s WWDC25 reveal
Worldwide Developers Conference: A sleek peek into Apple’s software future
Apple is expected to announce today (June 9) its biggest software visual overhaul yet.
Will there be a live translation to come with the next Airpods?
Buckle up, tech fans — the WWDC 2025 keynote is about to blast off.
Tune in at 10 am Pacific / 9:30 pm UAE for Apple’s big reveal and all the juicy updates from the mothership.
It's one of the year’s most closely-watched industry events.
However, no major hardware is expected — i.e. no new iPhones, Macs, or Vision AR headsets are to be announced.
Here's what could be expected today:
New OS naming, major UI redesign
Here's one highly-anticipated change: Apple is switching from version numbers to year-based naming. So expect iOS 26, macOS 26 Tahoe, iPadOS/watchOS/tvOS/visionOS 26, as per Techradar.
And as the tech giant seeks to unify experiences across iPhone, iPad, Mac, Watch, and Vision, the company is also expected to advance its AI push.
Here's why it matters
The biggest transformation expected will be in “look and feel”.
If this pans out as predicted by industry watchers, it's a major change for Apple.
Other developments to keep an eye out for:
A bold new “Liquid Glass” / “Solarium” design with translucent menus, floating elements, and a unified visual theme inspired by visionOS, as per MacRumors.
Apple will resume its AI push with battery optimisation, live translation in AirPods, and network-sharing features — but will probably hold off on a major Siri overhaul.
Developers appear cautiously optimistic about AI — they’ll be watching closely to see if Apple can close gaps versus rivals like OpenAI and Google.
There may be subtle reveals, too: an AirPods feature demo (photo capture, sleep detection) and potential Games app
There mayb e hints at a HomePod smart display or AirTag 2.
Gaming & Apple TV Ecosystem
A new preinstalled Games app could be introduced, alongside enhancements to CarPlay and tvOS.
So while AI takes a measured step forward, the biggest transformation lies in appearance and developer integration tools.
It’s a turning point in Apple’s long-term design and platform strategy.
