Apple fans can expect some exciting updates in 2022 as the tech giant gears up to launch the iOS 18 and iPadOS 18 systems. According to Bloomberg, Apple will be incorporating AI technology into the new iOS 18 system, making it the most advanced version of the operating system to date. The update is said to be compatible with all iPhone models that support the iOS 17 system, including the second-generation iPhone SE, iPhone XS series, and iPhone XR.
On the other hand, details on the enhancements to the iPadOS 18 system are still scarce. However, rumors suggest that the new version will focus on generative AI technology and improve multitasking capabilities to boost productivity on iPad devices.
Some of the expected features in the iPadOS 18 system include an expanded “Log” app for recording daily moments, an evolved Siri voice assistant with AI functions, and customizable controls for the lock screen and home screen search functions. Unfortunately, older iPad models such as the 2017 third-generation iPad and the first-generation iPad Pro series may not be compatible with the new system.
Apple traditionally unveils its latest system updates at the WWDC Developer Conference in June, with a release date scheduled for September or October. As users anticipate the launch, it is important to note that the new iOS 18 and iPadOS 18 systems may lead to discontinued support for certain older iPad models. Be sure to stay tuned for more updates on Apple’s upcoming releases.
