Apple unveils iOS 27 with AI focus

Apple revealed iOS 27 at WWDC 2026, building on last year's Liquid Glass redesign. This update marks Apple's third iteration of its Apple Intelligence features, first introduced at WWDC 2024. While Apple is working to catch up in the AI race against competitors like Google, OpenAI, and Anthropic, this new OS aims to integrate AI more deeply into the iPhone experience. The company is refining its approach after initial challenges with legibility in the Liquid Glass interface, with public release expected in September.
