iOS 27: Apple's Biggest Software Update in Years?
According to Bloomberg's Mark Gurman, Apple is preparing a major iOS 27 update with transformative changes across the system.
Camera App: Fully Customizable
The Camera app gets a completely overhauled interface where users can arrange controls (flash, exposure, timer, resolution) anywhere on screen. Each shooting mode has its own control set, accessible via a transparent "Add Controls" tray. Advanced options include depth, exposure, and photo style controls.
Siri Becomes a 24/7 AI Agent
Siri is getting its biggest overhaul ever — transforming from a voice assistant into an always-on AI agent that can access personal data and perform actions across apps. The new interface features a large Dynamic Island animation, and users can swipe down into a chatbot-style conversation mode. A new "Search or Ask" bar also lets users toggle between Siri, ChatGPT, and Gemini.
Safari, Weather, and System Changes
- Safari: New start page with tabs for Favorites, Bookmarks, Reading List, and History
- Weather: New "Weather Conditions" panel with rainfall and wind info on the same page
- System: Multiple app tab bars redesigned; undo/redo for home screen editing; new keyboard animation
