Apple has scheduled its Worldwide Developer’s Conference (WWDC) for June 9 to June 13, 2025. The company will unveil new software updates for its devices at the Apple Park event.
Every year, Apple’s WWDC brings together media, developers, and students. The event offers activities and consultations to help developers optimize their apps. The keynote will feature the latest software updates, including iOS 19, MacOS 16, WatchOS 12, VisionOS 3, and TvOS 19.
“We’re excited to mark another incredible year of WWDC with our global developer community,” said Susan Prescott, Apple’s vice president of Worldwide Developer Relations. “We can’t wait to share the latest tools and technologies that will empower developers and help them continue to innovate.”
Significant design changes to iPhone’s user interface are reportedly in the works. These changes include a complete overhaul of icons, menus, apps, and windows, aiming to unify the user experience across iPhone, Mac, and iPad. This update will mark Apple’s first major redesign of the iOS user interface since iOS 7 in 2013.
We can expect to see Apple integrating more of its Apple Intelligence features into everyday user interactions across the operating system. The company is committed to delivering substantial updates to iOS 19 and its other operating systems.

The company will also host the Swift Student Challenge, an annual coding competition open to developers age 13 and older enrolled in high school or other educational programs. Participants use Swift Playgrounds to create an app. Winners receive Apple merchandise and other prizes, with the top 50 able to attend the WWDC at Apple Park.
While the unveiling of iOS 19 and its companions is the main event, the real story here will be Apple’s first stab at a meaningful UI makeover since iOS 7. Evidently, this will reflect a wider push; any aspiring TikTok rival should take notice since it validates that polished, simple aesthetics still mean something.
Yes, even high schoolers will have an open door to this particular Apple demonstrate, and they’re already learning Swift with Playgrounds. That’s Apple pulling no punches: give a student the tools, and they will totally hack the system. Unsurprisingly, this might pay out big when those students become the developers writing tomorrow’s hits.
Developers look forward to more Apple Intelligence integrated into daily life, which is obvious, but messy, fine-tuned everyday use matters far more than any headline debut.
