As anticipation builds for Apple's WWDC 2025, new rumors suggest that iOS 19 will feature a striking design overhaul inspired by visionOS, the operating system for the upcoming Vision Pro headset. Recent leaks indicate that the new interface will adopt a 'glassy' aesthetic, characterized by rounded elements, translucent controls, and a floating appearance. According to prominent leaker Jon Prosser, mockups of various apps, including Messages and Camera, reveal a more rounded design with buttons covered in a reflective glass effect.
The leaked screenshots show that while the overall layout remains familiar, significant visual enhancements are on the horizon. The keyboard is expected to appear as if it’s floating above the screen, contributing to a modern and sleek user experience. This redesign aims to create a more cohesive look across Apple's platforms, aligning iOS with macOS and iPadOS.
Mark Gurman from Bloomberg has echoed these sentiments, stating that iOS 19 could represent one of the most significant updates since iOS 7. The introduction of circular app icons and deeper emphasis on 3D layering and shadows are also anticipated, although some features may not be fully realised in the initial release.
With WWDC 2025 set for June 9, Apple enthusiasts are eager to see how these rumored changes will manifest in the official unveiling. The event promises to showcase not only iOS 19 but also updates to iPadOS and macOS, all adopting elements from visionOS.
