Apple's Worldwide Developers Conference (WWDC) 2025, held on June 10, showcased a significant transformation in both user interface and artificial intelligence. A major highlight was the unveiling of "Liquid Glass," a new design language offering a "glass-like" experience with translucent layers, fluid animations, and spatial depth. This UI refresh, described as Apple's boldest in over a decade, impacts core system elements like the lock screen, home screen, and apps such as Safari and Music, providing floating controls and glassy visual effects. iPhones from the 15 series onward will support Liquid Glass, with public betas rolling out soon to deliver a more immersive and dynamic feel.
Apple also announced advancements in AI, positioning itself to catch up in the competitive landscape. Apple Intelligence, a system-wide, on-device AI layer, integrates with iOS 26, macOS Tahoe, and other platforms. It enables features such as summarizing emails and notifications, auto-completing messages, real-time call translation, and creating personalized emoji called Genmoji. Visual Intelligence allows users to extract text or gain information from photos, documents, and app screens. Siri is slated to receive intelligence upgrades as well, though its full capabilities may be slightly delayed.
In a significant shift, Apple has opened its foundational AI model to third-party developers, granting direct access to the on-device large language model powering Apple Intelligence. This move, announced at WWDC, marks a departure from Apple's traditionally closed ecosystem. The newly accessible three-billion parameter model operates entirely on-device, reflecting Apple’s privacy-first approach. The Foundation Models framework allows developers to integrate Apple Intelligence features with minimal code, offering privacy-focused AI inference at no cost. Xcode 26 now includes AI assistance, embedding large language models directly into the coding experience, and third-party developers can now leverage Visual Intelligence capabilities within their apps.
