Last week , Appleannounced that its big WWDC keynotewill take place on June 9 , which means we have about two months of rumors and speculation . The latest paper from Mark Gurman might seem like a big cue , but I ’m here to assure you , it ’s not .
It ’s natural to accept this is a clue that Io 19 will be light and airy , with transparent level design to let light in . It ’s a logical ending , especially since Jon Prosser of Front Page Tech released avideolast week that showcased renders of iOS 19 with extra transparency . Gurman himself has twit thatiOS 19 will take its clew from visionOS with “ greater transparency and new types of window and buttons . ”
If any of that is truthful , it ’ll be easy to look back on this Solarium rumour and see how obvious it was . But historically , Apple ’s codenames do n’t have anything to do with the shipping intersection . For example , last class ’s iOS 18 codename was Crystal , and iOS 17 ’s was Dawn . iOS 12 ? Peace .
Now , if you really want to find substance in those name , I conjecture you may . Crystal could bear on to the ability to customise icons with ease or as a reference work to Apple Intelligence . Peace could refer to the Modern Do Not Disturb option put in with iOS 12 . Dawn could be interrelate to using an iPhone in StandBy mode as an warning gadget clock .
But they likely intend nothing . The last major modification to iOS ’s interface came with iOS 7 . That codename ? Innsbruck , a hilly city in Austria popular for skiing . Back then Apple was lovesome of name iOS translation after winter resort urban center , and being that iOS 7 introduced Apple ’s first flat pattern , naming it after a metropolis with near 70 named mountains could be a lingua - in - cheek nod to its unexampled look . But like Solarium , it almost sure was n’t .
