"Kuo says that the first Mac models to adopt Arm-based chips will be the 13.3-inch MacBook Pro and an iMac with a redesigned form factor, with Apple planning to launch the new models in the in fourth quarter of 2020 or early in 2021 at the earliest. Mac apps that aren’t ready for Apple's chips immediately will run on virtualization."Īs for the new Macs with the ARM chips, consumers can expect a MacBook pro by the end of the year, and an iMac early in 2021, reports Apple analyst Ming-Chi Kuo ( via MacRumors):

MacOS native apps already work with Apple silicon and big software partners such as Microsoft and Adobe are on board with the Arm shift. "The company also outlined a case that revolves around innovation and an easy transition. Going forward, Apple's design language across devices and operating systems will be more consistent - as will the hardware that powers them. "At WWDC 2020, Apple laid out a roadmap that started with operating systems and went into hardware and processors. The key news from WWDC, at least from a business point of view, is the Mac platforms move away from Intel and on to Apple designed processors based on the ARM architecture… the same architecture you will find in the iPad and iPhone platforms. Calendar is also getting more powerful menus connected to toolbar buttons.” Items can be dragged and drop through this menu. "Also, many apps, including Photos and Notes, will get a left-side menu, that makes them look a lot like their Mac app versions. The new search field looks and acts a lot like Spotlight on the Mac, and can be used to find content in documents, find apps and facts. "iPadOS looks a lot like macOS now, starting with redesigned search has been redesigned.

The iPad’s fork of iOS also picked up an update at WWDC with the announcement of iPadOS 14, and it has narrowed the gap between the ultraportable iPad tablets and the mostly deskbound Macs. There’s a search field located at the top of the App Library, with all your apps organized alphabetically in a list view underneath it." "Apple says the App Library will know to curate your apps into specific categories, such as "Apple Arcade" for games from that service or "Social" for social media apps.

The idea is to cut down on the amount of pages you need to scroll through to get to a specific app-instead, all the apps are available from one screen, not unlike an Android phone's app drawer. A new feature called "App Library" sits at the bottom of home screen pages and automatically organizes various apps into groups.

In iOS 14 you'll finally be able to set your default web browser and mail apps to ones other than Apple's in-house versions, meaning you can have Gmail or Microsoft Edge open when you tap on links instead.Īpple has not announced a release date for iOS 14, but typically reserves it for launch around September in conjunction with annual iPhone launches. Perhaps one of the biggest changes might be one Apple should've introduced years ago. This lets you do more on your display at once than ever before, including new picture-in-picture support (which was introduced on the iPad a few years ago).

Siri, Apple's own digital assistant, is also being reworked so that it doesn't take up the entire screen when dealing with a query.

Front and center in iOS 14 are widgets-larger app icons that display more information at a glance, and change up the composition of your home screen drastically.Īpple also announced new features to automatically help group similar applications and sort them into folders, which will also be surfaced in groups when an app theme is searched for. In a way, it's the most radical redesign of iOS in years, but also not the most innovative one in the grander scheme of the industry.

The display you see as soon as you unlock your phone as remained largely unchanged, but with iOS 14, announced at WWDC, it's getting a shake up. For the last few years, Apple's iOS updates have mostly happened behind your home screen.
