Overview
- Apple has posted WWDC promotional material and the keynote livestream link for the event that begins on June 8, with multiple outlets saying the keynote will emphasize iOS 27 and Apple Intelligence.
- Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman reports that Apple has already started feature work on the 2027 platform updates, which are internally codenamed iOS/iPadOS 28 “Bell” and macOS 28 “Poppy.”
- iOS 27 is expected to center on a redesigned, more conversational Siri that offers on‑screen awareness, a dedicated Siri app for text or voice chat, and a new “Search or Ask” Dynamic Island entry point, according to reporting based on internal leaks.
- Some outlets have circulated a single‑source rumor that the revamped Siri could use a custom Google Gemini model, but that claim is unconfirmed by Apple and should be treated as speculative.
- Apple commonly plans software years ahead and often times big OS revisions to match major hardware updates, so analysts say iOS 28’s early development and the 2027 timing suggest the company is preparing a deeper platform change to ship with a possible 20th‑anniversary iPhone.
