According to a filtration of the YouTube Front Page Tech channel, backed by alleged internal images that leave Apple itself, the new operating system for iPhone will completely renew its aesthetics, Look more like visionos.
This resemblance will be achieved through transparenciessubtle brightness and a feeling of being before a floating interface. Now, it remains to be seen if this change of course in visual terms is to the liking of Apple fans or if on the contrary it will leave many of them along the way.
How will iOS 19
As can be seen in the video that we leave below, Apple would be betting on a new style in which the icons of the applications have a rounded style, almost circular, although it seems that not exactly that in visiones, the operating system of the mixed virtual reality glasses, the Apple Vision Pro. Apparently, in iOS 19the icons were installed by default as we know them now, but keeping pressed on them, this would be activated New more curvilinear aesthetic. The leaks are scarce so far in this regard, since Apple, as usual, tries to hide their changes to the WWDC, although it is possible that during the months of April and May they will arrive more reliable evidence of how the final version will be.
But the novelties do not stay there, since another of the important changes will have to do with a New floating eyelashesin the form of a pill. This bar will appear in many native apps such as the App Store, Apple Music, messages or telephone app and reproduce animations when changing tabs, and in the case of the search engine, you will integrate a more elongated search bar with a left circular button to return to the main menu. In the messages, for example, this bar is constant, for a more accessible navigation from any point of the conversation.
The rounded elements will be throughout the system, from the emerging menus of Haptic Touch to the volume and bright controls in the control center, through the new chamber and microphone permissions windows, everything adapts to this more fluid, rounded aesthetic and, according to the filter, with a finish that reminds of the polished glass. The new iOS 19 seems to look for a sense of visual lightness without losing functionality.
When is iOS 19
The keyboard will also suffer a redesignwith softer lines and a more minimalist sensation. The same goes for the APP Settings switches, which will be thinner, in line with the rest of the elements. Everything fits within a visual narrative where the interface seems to “float” about the content, something that Apple has already worked on previous products, but that would now lead to a new level.
And as for the general aspect of the system, we will see a lighting effect that will be applied to certain elements of the system and that will cause the flashlight or camera icon, for example, on the lock screen, shine slightly when moving the iPhone, creating a reflection dynamic which simulates the behavior of light on a glass surface. Details with the Apple seal.
The first official look at iOS 19 will arrive during the opening Keynote of the WWDC, on June 9. That same day, developers can download the first beta, and if the usual deadlines are met, the final version will be launched in September together with the new iPhone 17.
