Apple has commenced its annual WWDC Developers Conference at its futuristic headquarters in Cupertino. The tech giant unveiled that iOS 27 will debut in the Fall, superseding iOS 26 as its latest operating system. Once installed, iOS 27 will offer enhancements such as customizable Liquid Glass aesthetics, improved file search capabilities, and an advanced Siri capable of writing emails, scheduling events, and assisting in booking tickets for events.
Apple assures that older iPhone models will experience improved responsiveness due to a feature called CPU Scheduler. Overall, device performance is expected to be faster, with iPhone and iPad apps launching up to 30% quicker, photos loading up to 70% faster, and AirDrop transfers being up to 80% speedier.
A significant addition is enhanced parental controls for children using connected devices. Apple introduces a new suite of intuitive features to help parents manage their children’s content access, communication permissions, and app usage more efficiently. Features like “Ask to Browse,” “Time Allowances,” and new Screen Time options aim to ease parental concerns regarding device usage.
Sumbul Desai, M.D., Apple’s vice president of Health and Fitness, emphasized the company’s commitment to empowering users with technology that enriches lives while maintaining safety standards. Apple is still finalizing the complete list of updates, but it has confirmed that all iPhones currently running iOS 26 will be eligible for the upgrade to iOS 27.
The compatible device list includes iPhone models from 11 to 17, iPhone Air, iPhone 17e, as well as the iPhone SE (2nd generation) and iPhone SE (3rd generation).
