Let’s tell you everything we think we know about iOS 27based on all the leaks and rumors around the next version of Apple’s mobile operating system. Like every year, the months leading up to the imminent presentation of the new version of the system have left us with a whole collection of rumors and leaks that we are preparing to review.
Here, what you should know is that everything we are going to tell you is based on the rumors and leaks that have been released about iOS 27. When it is officially presented we will update the content so that you can know with certainty all the official changes.
When do we expect iOS 27 to be released
The new iOS 27 will be presented on June 8 this 2026, during the long-awaited WWDC 2026. This is the annual event organized by Apple to announce its upcoming software news, where the new versions of the rest of its operating systems will also be presented.
That same day the first beta is expected to be releasedalthough for now it will be for developers. This is at least what Apple usually does, although we will have to wait for official confirmation to be clear.
After several developer betas, it is expected that Starting in July, public betas begin to arrive that any user can download by simply registering in the beta program.
Normally the final version of iOS 27 will arrive in September along with the presentation of the new iPhone 18. But here the leaks outline some possible changes. Specifically, it is possible that only the iPhone 18 Pro and a new folding iPhone will be presented in September, while the “normal” iPhone 18 may not arrive. until spring 2027. However, there are no confirmations on this either, only rumors.
What news do we expect from iOS 27
Let’s tell you what they are the rumored news of iOS 27. According to rumors and leaks, everything seems to indicate that after having finished with the aesthetic innovations of iOS in recent years, now it will be the turn of stability and performance. This is what we know to date.
More performance and more stability
As they point out in Applesferaleaks from the renowned Mark Gurman aim to eliminate the “technical debt” that has been accumulating after years of adding layers of software. Now it’s the turn to polish the system inside to optimize it as much as possible.
This means that a restructuring of the internal code is expected so that iOS 27 is much faster and smootherthat bugs that consume battery are eliminated, and that it flies regardless of the age of the iPhone. There will be no new icons, there will be no flashy redesigns, but there will be noticeable differences in fluidity.
An even smarter Siri
We’ve been talking for several versions of iOS about Siri being smarter and using AI, but so far everything has been delayed. However, we hope that the new Siri finally arrives with iOS 27and that this Siri will also have an artificial intelligence model based on Gemini.
The agreement between Apple and Google gives those from Cupertino full access to Gemini. With this, it is suggested that Apple could try to distill Gemini and create smaller adapted versions that can work locally on your mobile. With this, in addition to offering greater privacy, they will also have more efficient and faster operating models. Come on, Apple privacy and Google intelligence.
The leaked renders This new Siri will show dark background and will be integrated within the dynamic island. When you launch Siri, it will tell you that you can search or ask whatever you want. The interface will be different from the old Siri so that they are unmistakable.
Siri will also have a live conversational mode like Gemini, to be able to chat by voice, as well as multitasking that allows you to do several things at the same time. You will also have full control over iPhone apps and settings, and possibly a new way in the camera carousel to use visual intelligence and analyze what you point at.
The new smart Siri will also have advanced writing tools such as Grammarly-style grammar check, AI wallpaper generator within Image Playground, or camera options with which to change the perspective of an already taken photo or expand photos.
They will also include shortcuts with natural language which will mean that you no longer have to configure several steps, a smart wallet to create digital passes by scanning the physical object, smart tab management in Safari, and additional functions for the Health app.
Additionally, there are leaks indicating that Siri in iOS 27 could also let you choose what a task is solved by Claude, Gemini or ChatGPT in case it is necessary. Thus, Apple’s new AI will not seek to be the best, but rather to solve your problems and serve as a gateway for other models on the iPhone if necessary.
Lastly, if you don’t like any of this it is also expected that there will be a switch in settings to be able to deactivate the new Siri with AI. This, by the way, arrived in Beta status.
Other news
And now we leave you the list with the rest of the news that has been leaked to date. In addition to the novelty, we will also include a small description so you know what it is about.
- Perfecting Liquid Glass: There have been internal changes at Apple with the departure of the head of design and the rise of a veteran to top manager, so it is uncertain how much Apple’s Liquid Glass will be improved. At the moment we are talking about Liquid Slider, a slider that allows you to choose the intensity of the transparency.
- Undo and redo when rearranging widgets or apps: The arrival of a system that allows you to reverse accidental changes when organizing desktop apps and widgets has been leaked.
- Configurable camera: There is renders that show a panel on the camera with which we can customize the upper shortcut bar, and thus put the controls that we use the most.
- 5G via satellite: Leaks point to native support for 5G internet via satellite, although this may be an exclusive feature for future iPhone 18 Pros.
- Apple Health+: We have mentioned this above, there may be health news such as a new service, possibly subscription or integrated into Apple One, which will act as a medical coach. However, most recently It has also been said that this has been canceled and only more basic functions integrated into the current Health app will arrive. We will have to wait to confirm which of the two versions is true.
- Folding support: As Apple seems to be thinking about launching a foldable iPhone, iOS 27 will have features to accommodate it. This includes advanced multitasking to take advantage of two screens simultaneously, app adaptation, new navigation gestures and a “continuity mode” for transitions between folded and unfolded screens. However, they may be exclusive to this future iPhone and will not reach others.
- Photos and collections: Internal code suggests a new “Collections” system in the Photos app that will use AI to organize memories without user intervention.
- New AirPods pairing: References have been found to a new method of linking accessories, seeking to further polish the current experience.
Which iPhones will be compatible
If there are no last-minute changes and Apple continues with its usual generational cuts, iOS 27 would mean the end of support for the iPhone 11. However, there are leaks that talk about system optimization that could mean that these phones would still receive it.
If so, these would be the compatible mobile phones:
