Neither Zimmermann nor Husson expects watchOS 8 to be drastically different. She says Apple will “continue to keep iPadOS as a separate OS.” Annette Zimmermann, lead analyst for Apple at Gartner, too expects new changes coming to iPadOS this year. But the biggest question is what impact does the M1 chip and iPadOS 15 have on the new iPad Pro.

Not to forget, the iPad Pro features a LiDAR scanner that promises better-augmented reality apps and software. And since the Pro model has the same M1 chip as the MacBook Air, Apple could also improve the augmented reality experience on the top iPad model. Speculation is rife that iPadOS may get the same home screen customisation features that came to the iPhone last year, including widgets that you can place on any home screen page, and the App Library. Though lately, Apple is making consistent efforts to pitch the iPad as your primary computer, and with the launch of the M1 iPad Pro, there is a hope Cupertino will continue to distinguish iPadOS from iOS. Despite Apple saying iPadOS is different from iOS, the fact is the iPad-centric operating system is very much iOS. Naturally, new changes in iOS 15 will come to iPadOS too. Husson pointed out that “iMessage won’t become a social network per se and since it is restricted to Apple users, it won’t compete with WhatsApp.” Reports suggest Apple may announce a new chip at WWDC that will be way more powerful than the M1 processor. There has been speculation that Apple might make iMessage more social in nature, though it’s not clear what Cupertino would achieve in doing this until it wants to compete with WhatsApp.

In addition to that, Apple is said to be making changes to iMessage, the messaging platform that drives people to buy iPhones over Android smartphones. Husson expects Apple to announce more privacy features as well as new notification controls, allowing users to set preferences based on their current statuses like time of the day and different activities - sleeping, driving, or working.

“The software announcement gives hints of what new experiences brands will be able to build on top of Apple devices moving forward, and potentially on new products and services to be launched in the coming months.”įor years, Apple has used WWDC to show what’s coming next to iOS and other software platforms that power the company’s most popular products, including the iPhone and Mac. “Apple is more likely to announce iterative software updates for iOS, iPadOS, watchOS, macOS and tvOS but no major overhaul of the architecture of its software ecosystem,” Paris-based Thomas Husson, Vice president and principal analyst at Forrester Research, tells.
While Apple will certainly announce the new versions of iOS, iPadOS, macOS, watchOS and tvOS at the online-only WWDC 2021, don’t expect to see a major overhaul this year. Apple annual Worldwide Developers Conference 2021 (WWDC), which starts today will focus on how developers can take advantage of Apple’s various software offerings and create a meaningful experience on top of it while also showcasing new software, and perhaps hardware, updates from the company.
