The recent leaks regarding iOS 19 indicate a significant evolution in Apple's mobile operating system, emphasizing a VisionOS-inspired aesthetic characterized by translucent glass effects. According to leaker Jon Prosser, the update will introduce a redesigned interface that incorporates rounded corners and translucency across various elements such as settings, popups, and app menus . This design shift appears to prioritize visual enhancements over the introduction of new features, aligning with Apple's trend of iterative rather than radical changes .
Apple is widely expected to give iOS 19 a massive design overhaul at WWDC 2025 after leakers showed design concepts based on what they saw and shared information they heard about Apple’s software plans.
YouTuber Jon Prosser demoed a Camera app mockup a few months ago, discussing Apple’s purported visionOS-based iOS 19 redesign.
More recently, Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman mentioned the same design plans for the iPhone, saying Apple has bigger plans. All of its operating systems will see similar design changes as Apple plans to make them easier to use. The redesign would make switching between an iPhone, an iPad, and a Mac even more seamless and lay the groundwork for more complex devices of the future, like foldable iPads and Macs with touchscreen displays.
This trio of features would’ve allowed Siri to better understand who you are, see what you’re doing on your phone while you’re talking to it, and taking actions on your behalf. It would’ve made Siri into an all-encompassing digital assistant that many people dreamed of.
Apple didn’t provide much of a specific timeline when it delayed these already-announced Siri features. It said that they’d roll out “in the coming year”, so it’s unclear whether or not this’ll be part of iOS 19 or iOS 19.1 later this fall, or if it’ll roll into a winter or spring release. Only time will tell.
On X, Gurman chimed in on "iOS 19 images floating around," saying they "aren't representative of what we'll see at WWDC" and "they look to be based on either very old builds or vague descriptions, missing key features."
Moreover, the leaks clarify that Apple is not abandoning its current iconography for pixel-like circular icons as seen in competitor devices. Instead, the focus remains on refining existing visual elements while maintaining recognizable app structures . The updated keyboard design further exemplifies this approach with more rounded edges and a cohesive glass-like aesthetic that enhances user experience without overwhelming alterations. Overall, iOS 19 promises to deliver an elegant visual refinement rooted in contemporary design principles.
