00:00:00
as we get closer to WWDC the leaks keep
00:00:02
on coming about this year's software
00:00:04
updates And first up is iPad OS So it
00:00:06
seems every year we hear about iPad OS
00:00:08
becoming more like Mac OS And this year
00:00:10
is no different with Mark German giving
00:00:12
us the same promises German says
00:00:14
there'll be three main changes with iPad
00:00:16
OS 19 to make it more like Mac OS And
00:00:19
that's improved productivity improved
00:00:21
multitasking and improved app window
00:00:24
management which is quite a vague list
00:00:27
of changes What does improved
00:00:29
productivity even mean honestly at the
00:00:31
end of the day the list of changes
00:00:33
people want to see with iPad OS will be
00:00:35
so vast Apple's just better off putting
00:00:37
Mac OS on the iPads For example with
00:00:39
improved multitasking and app window
00:00:41
management many would just want Apple to
00:00:43
ditch stage manager and use the window
00:00:45
management system Mac OS has And so if
00:00:47
iPad OS is becoming more like Mac OS you
00:00:49
might as well throw Mac OS on this
00:00:51
Another aspect that many would like
00:00:53
Apple to change with iPad OS is the
00:00:55
files app for example It's not too great
00:00:57
And so to solve this Apple could add
00:00:58
Finder from Mac OS to the iPads which is
00:01:01
why again it's easier to just chuck Mac
00:01:03
OS on this I know not everyone uses the
00:01:05
iPad as a laptop replacement And so
00:01:07
Apple could make this an option where it
00:01:08
can dual boot iPad OS and Mac OS So yeah
00:01:11
I don't see the point in iPad OS slowly
00:01:13
becoming more like Mac OS And also as I
00:01:16
said we do hear such things every year I
00:01:19
feel like ever since we saw the M1 in
00:01:20
the iPad Pro we've been waiting for
00:01:22
Apple to do something with all this
00:01:24
power but they've been slow to give us
00:01:26
new software features And so I would
00:01:28
keep expectations low guys iPad S
00:01:30
already is getting a design overhaul
00:01:32
which I'll delve later into And so I
00:01:34
would not be surprised if functionally
00:01:36
it's not very different But if Apple
00:01:38
does want to bless us with a meaningful
00:01:39
change please give us Mac OS on the
00:01:42
iPads You know what else would be
00:01:43
meaningful clicking that subscribe
00:01:45
button Of course it's free and I'm
00:01:46
bringing the latest about Apple right to
00:01:48
subscription box So please consider it
00:01:50
It would be appreciated Join the
00:01:52
surround gang now Anyway let's move on
00:01:54
to iOS 19 because we have new renders
00:01:57
that show us the UI overhaul to expect
00:01:59
So earlier leaker John Pro had showed us
00:02:01
the redesigned camera UI the new lock
00:02:03
screen where the notifications are more
00:02:05
translucent and there's a more 3D
00:02:07
floating look for the toggles settings
00:02:08
and pop-up with a more glassy aesthetic
00:02:10
imitating Vision OS and a redesigned
00:02:12
keyboard where it almost creates this
00:02:14
illusion of it floating But I'll be
00:02:16
honest I was expecting a bit more And
00:02:18
thankfully John Prosa now shares more
00:02:20
renders that show us a more drastic
00:02:22
visual redesign And namely we see
00:02:24
circular icons in these new renders
00:02:26
which have been taken directly from
00:02:27
Vision OS John Bros had actually first
00:02:29
told us in the builds he saw he couldn't
00:02:31
see evidence of rounder icons However it
00:02:34
seems Apple's hiding this element
00:02:35
because in current builds if you long
00:02:37
press on a squirkle icon it becomes
00:02:39
rounder after a brief animation Maybe
00:02:41
Apple's hiding the new icons in builds
00:02:43
to prevent leaks but clearly that plan
00:02:45
did not work because it has leaked and
00:02:47
so Tim's now very angry But I do like
00:02:49
the look of this Yes it's just different
00:02:51
shaped icons and doesn't functionally
00:02:54
add anything whatsoever but I'm always
00:02:56
down for visual refreshes that are
00:02:57
executed well and this looks clean in my
00:03:00
opinion Apple could of course give
00:03:01
consumers a choice and similar to
00:03:03
Android devices it would be nice if you
00:03:05
could switch between squirrel and
00:03:06
circular icons but this is Apple we're
00:03:08
talking about and they want design
00:03:09
consistency and I'm expecting everyone
00:03:12
to be forced to use these new icons
00:03:14
whether you like it or not But
00:03:15
personally I'm not against that because
00:03:18
these icons are very cool in my opinion
00:03:20
Another UI change to expect is a
00:03:21
pill-shaped tab bar at the bottom of
00:03:23
many of Apple's first party applications
00:03:26
You can see how it looks And it seems
00:03:28
Apple's going to be prioritizing putting
00:03:29
a lot of tabs towards the bottom of the
00:03:31
device which is great for reachability
00:03:33
especially for those using the Pro Max
00:03:35
and having to do hand gymnastics right
00:03:36
now to reach some areas of the UI Also
00:03:39
Apple's rounding off everything So if
00:03:41
you long press on an app the menu that
00:03:42
comes up is rounder There's new sliders
00:03:44
for volume and brightness in the control
00:03:46
center and also the settings page now
00:03:48
has slimmer toggles There's also a
00:03:50
subtle lighting effect to some elements
00:03:52
that help create a glass-like appearance
00:03:54
So for example the flashlight camera
00:03:56
controls on the lock screen shimmer as
00:03:58
you move the iPhone which sounds pretty
00:04:00
cool So overall I actually love this Yes
00:04:02
I'm an Apple sheep who's quite easily
00:04:04
impressed by new fancy icons but iOS has
00:04:06
looked the same for a while and so I'm
00:04:08
glad to see a visual overhaul that will
00:04:10
make your iPhone feel fresh And yes I
00:04:11
know some may argue we don't need a
00:04:13
redesign to iOS we need stability In
00:04:15
fact I have a feeling Apple's giving us
00:04:17
this major overhaul to distract us from
00:04:18
the fact Apple intelligence Siri
00:04:20
features have been delayed And honestly
00:04:22
it's a good distraction because whilst
00:04:24
air features in iOS may eventually get
00:04:27
useful they certainly aren't a must-h
00:04:29
have feature right now Whereas design
00:04:31
changes to the UI something you would
00:04:32
appreciate every single day My only
00:04:34
concern is bugs I really hope it's not
00:04:36
too buggy but if Apple's changing so
00:04:38
much with iOS 19 you just know those
00:04:40
first builds are going to be rough But
00:04:41
hopefully the public builds are stable
00:04:44
However knowing Apple's software quality
00:04:45
as of late I may be asking too much Now
00:04:48
by the way it's not just Bruss claiming
00:04:50
there will be a redesign we have had
00:04:51
other leakers chiming in as well Last
00:04:54
year the Verify actually had first
00:04:55
mentioned this but they said it would
00:04:57
come to iOS 18 which is wrong of course
00:04:59
Then John Proar talking about a possible
00:05:01
redesign and finally Mark Gur's chiming
00:05:03
in and suggesting the same Having said
00:05:05
Apple's goal is to make Apple's various
00:05:07
software platforms more consistent in
00:05:09
design And so that means we're going to
00:05:11
see these design changes with iPad OS
00:05:13
Mac OS and also Watch OS That's good
00:05:16
because it is odd that we got the big S
00:05:17
redesign in 2020 for Mac OS but those
00:05:20
redesigned icons never came to the
00:05:21
iPhone or iPads And so I'm hoping all
00:05:23
platforms are based on vision OS and we
00:05:26
have the same general look across all
00:05:27
devices And G also kept emphasizing that
00:05:30
Apple plans to change everything the
00:05:32
style of icons menus apps windows system
00:05:34
buttons The company is also going to
00:05:36
simplify the way users navigate and
00:05:38
control their devices The changes go
00:05:40
well beyond a new design language and
00:05:42
aesthetic tweaks according to German But
00:05:44
unlike John Pro he did not show us
00:05:45
anything specific I do want to mention
00:05:47
though Gur has doubts over process leaks
00:05:50
but what they both say does line up for
00:05:52
the most part The only aspect we haven't
00:05:54
seen yet are the ways functionality of
00:05:56
the UI could change The renders John
00:05:58
showed are mostly aesthetic changes but
00:06:00
with such a big redesign I'm sure
00:06:01
there's going to be a few functionality
00:06:03
changes that hopefully don't bulk our
00:06:05
devices Let's move on to the devices
00:06:07
which will be running iOS 19 and iPad OS
00:06:09
19 this September And unfortunately
00:06:11
there is bad news So because iOS 19 is
00:06:14
going to be such a substantial update
00:06:16
Apple is apparently planning to drop the
00:06:17
iPhone XS 10S Max and 10R according to a
00:06:20
credible anonymous source These devices
00:06:22
were released way back in 2018 So
00:06:24
they've already had roughly 6 years of
00:06:26
support So I'm not too surprised by this
00:06:28
The 10R specially only has 3 gigs of RAM
00:06:31
So for those still using these devices
00:06:33
just be aware your device may lose
00:06:34
support very soon Now obviously these
00:06:36
phones not getting iOS 19 does not
00:06:38
suddenly make them unusable Apple does
00:06:40
still release security updates for
00:06:42
devices on older iOS versions and so you
00:06:44
could theoretically keep using these
00:06:46
phones for a little longer but
00:06:47
eventually apps will stop supporting iOS
00:06:49
18 and you're also going to miss out on
00:06:51
your features you would want to try out
00:06:53
Now moving on to iPad OS 19 Apple plans
00:06:56
to only drop the iPad 7th generation
00:06:58
which has the A10 Fusion from 2016 That
00:07:01
is a crazy old chipset but what's funny
00:07:02
is that the iPad 8 generation which has
00:07:04
the A12 that Apple's dropping from the
00:07:07
iPhone range is still going to be
00:07:08
supported This has already happened in
00:07:11
the past because the iPhone 7 which had
00:07:12
the A10 did not get iOS 16 whereas the
00:07:15
iPad 7 with the same A10 got iPad OS 16
00:07:18
17 and 18 So it seems Apple's just happy
00:07:21
supporting these iPads for longer
00:07:22
because they did launch a couple of
00:07:24
years after these iPhones Does that mean
00:07:27
theoretically the iPhone 10R 10s could
00:07:29
run iOS 19 if the iPad 8 generation is
00:07:32
getting iPad OS 19 maybe that the iPad 7
00:07:36
generation was very sluggish on iPad OS
00:07:38
18 And so there's a possibility the iPad
00:07:40
8 generation also suffers on iPad OS 19
00:07:43
We will have to wait and see Anyway let
