We haveWWDC come upon the second week of June , and if Apple ’s give-up the ghost to do anything large , they ’re going to save it for that case . That means you may expect a comparatively slow month in May . The latest versions of iOS , macOS , and watchOS will probably be released – they’ve been in genus Beta for week and are n’t changing much , so they ’re probably nearly done . And of course , there will be unexampled Apple TV+ shows and series , along with new releases to Apple Arcade .
Beyond that , do n’t expect a hatful . Here ’s what ’s coming from Apple in May 2022 .
Rumored new products
We do n’t expect any raw products to be bring out in May . If Apple had anything deserving announcing ( likeM2 Macs ) , they would wait a few week to announce it at WWDC . There ’s an off chance that we get something little , like that new35W duple chargerthat leaked last month , but anything major is go to have to wait for June .
WWDC
speak of Apple’sWorldwide Developers Conference , it will take position from June 6 - 10 , with a keynote in all likelihood at 10 a.m. PT on June 6 . That does n’t intend a lot for May outlet , other thannotto expect any big hardware announcement until then , but if you wish to keep abreast of the latest hearsay it ’ll be a playfulness calendar month . May is when we start to get some solid intel ( as much as that ’s possible with Apple ) about what we might expect at WWDC in June . So stay tune for all the info on iOS 16 , macOS 13 , watchOS 9 , and everything else that might make an appearing at the big event .
Apps and software updates
Apple close out May with the third beta dismissal of iOS 15.5 ( and its associated tvOS , watchOS , and iPadOS variate ) and macOS 12.4 . The 2d and third betas did n’t vary much – so it ’s probable we ’ll see a final tone ending in May ( unless there ’s something Modern coming at WWDC that Apple wants to wait for ) . Here are the major features they may get .
iOS 15.5 : There are minor port changes to the Apple Cash add-in , iTunes Pass is being renamed Apple Balance , and there are addition to the SportsKit framework . This version of Io lays the foot for Apple Classical , a stand - alone experience for classical music based onApple ’s acquisition of Primephoniclast year .
macOS 12.4 : This version is in the first place bug fixes , include one for thewebcam on the new Studio Display .
Apple Classical : Apple acquired the classic euphony pullulate servicePrimephoniclast yr , and has promised to create a new medicine streaming experience aimed at classical music . It ’s expected to be a stand - alone app , but not its own service ( you ’d just get approach as part of Apple Music ) . Given that we see some base being laid for Apple Classical in iOS 15.5 , it ’s possible that the app will plunge along with the final Io 15.5 release . Apple could also release it later , mayhap during WWDC , with our fresh - updated iPhones and iPads simply having the necessary under - the - cowling update .
