WWDC 2025 Logo Hints at iOS 19's New Design

[MacRumors]

Apple today announced that WWDC 2025 starts June 9, and the logo for the conference hints at iOS 19's rumored new design.

Multiple sources have claimed that iOS 19 will feature a new design that is inspired by visionOS, the software platform for Apple's Vision Pro headset. The new design is expected to include more translucent buttons and menus, with a glass-like appearance. The "25" in this year's WWDC logo also has a subtle visionOS-like appearance.

iPadOS 19 and macOS 16 are also expected to have visionOS-like designs, which would make Apple's software platforms look more uniform.

In January, the YouTube channel Front Page Tech shared a render of a redesigned Camera app that is allegedly planned for iOS 19.

According to Front Page Tech host Jon Prosser, the Camera app will have more translucent buttons and menus, along with a larger viewfinder.

Earlier this month, Bloomberg's Mark Gurman said the visionOS-like design changes will extend to other interfaces on iOS 19, meaning that the new look with more transparency will likely extend to other Apple apps, notifications, and more.

Gurman believes that iOS 19 will have the most significant design changes since iOS 7.

Apple is expected to unveil iOS 19 during the WWDC 2025 keynote on June 9, so we should get an official look at the new design in a few more months.

Jon prosser has a new Genius Bar episode on YouTube and said iOS 19 is weird. I hope he is wrong

Apple is also switching its system font to Comic Sans. That will really show the haters!

J/k!
(April fools is near)

Is it bad that I kinda liked that look?

 

[Prof.]

More vaporware perhaps?

 

[vertsix]

I'm excited! I am a big fan of visionOS' UI design, and dig the neumorphistic and glass aesthetic. I miss it from iOS 7 and Windows 7.

 

[Soba]

That logo has pretty awful typography, IMHO.

Perhaps a harbinger of things to come in the OS redesign?

Bring it back.

If those corner buttons look anything like that even I won't be able to defend them and I'm pretty forgiving :\

This was literally my first thought. That "logo" (if you can call it that) looks like something I would have made in high school using fonts in Word... and that's a long time ago 😂

This is going to be a disaster.

 

[Veinticinco]

Why does the logo read VWDC?

 

[BigBlur]

Haven't we been getting sneak peaks of this for a while already?

The '+' menu in Messages has a frosted look and is very inconsistent with the rest of iOS/iPadOS's UI design.


Some alerts have a frosted look.


It seems like there are a couple of other similar things I've run into, but can't recall what they are at the moment.

 

[rizzo41999]

I'm big on skeuomorphism

 

[jclardy]

NGL, I'm a bit scared - this is possibly the worst looking WWDC logo design I've ever seen.

 

[MacsRgr8]

So, it's officially WVDC 2025?

 

[erinsarah]

Does Tim know his user base is aging and needs things to be more readable, not less?

 

[MacsRgr8]

Why does the logo read VWDC?

lol, I read it as WVDC... Windows Vista DC?

 

[Bones402]

They started that last year no clue as to why..

Vista didn’t look that bad to me, honestly. But I did turn off the transparency. I liked the 3D look tho.

I see a delayed Siri with transparent OS 🥲
