Apple kicked off its Worldwide Developers Conference 2025 (WWDC25) with a keynote event, unveiling a series of platform updates across its ecosystem. The spotlight was on its new design language—Liquid Glass—which brings dynamic translucent UI elements across iOS, macOS, iPadOS, watchOS, and more. Apple also introduced new naming conventions for its software and previewed major upgrades to native apps, AI tools, and cross-platform continuity.

Apple WWDC25 Keynote: Highlights

Liquid Glass design language

Apple introduced its new design language, Liquid Glass, describing it as more expressive, immersive, and cohesive across devices. The interface features translucent layers, dynamic reflections, and fluid animations that react to movement and surroundings. These changes extend from small UI elements like buttons and sliders to full app panels, toolbars, and navigation bars.

The new design language is consistent across platforms, bringing a unified aesthetic to iOS 26, macOS 26 (Tahoe), iPadOS 26, watchOS 26, tvOS 26, and even Apple CarPlay.

Platform updates

Apple has previewed new operating software for its devices based on the new “Liquid Glass” design language. Apple has also made changes to the naming convention of its OS. For example, the new iOS version is now called iOS 26 instead of iOS 19. Similarly the new OS for Macs is called macOS 26, and not macOS 16.

iOS 26

The iPhone’s new OS gets a major redesign under the Liquid Glass theme. Menus, panels, and widgets appear semi-transparent with shimmering effects. The Home Screen and Lock Screen are also updated, with widgets offering new customisation options including a “clear look.” The lock screen now dynamically adapts the clock placement based on the wallpaper, while new spatial effects bring wallpapers to life with subtle depth.
