I'm pretty open to an iOS major redesign. Its been 10+ years of the same graphics so wouldn't mind something a bit different that still looks good

[@tdrg_]

So true

[@ellaxedits131]

No I hate the new design because I will miss it

[@aimanrulez7339]

Wont be seeing a redesign anytime soon. I feel like apple has peaked on the redesigning part because they already look good.

@@ellaxedits131you can remove it

[@tempestsquall5882]

It's bland as hell to look at after more than a decade of the same icons and aesthetic. I'll make the switch back to iphone if they actually redesign the software to look completely different.

[@Joker-yu5kp]

I personally don’t care about side loading but rcs is definitely something that apple should have, no reason to lock people into imessage.This will make it so easier to share images and content with people on android.I also wish apple brings split screen but it will probably never come

They'll still be locked in imessage it's just gonna show the green bubbles with the rcs features imessage is still imessage

[@4kmentality]

Every time we hear “major redesign” it ends up being like 3 or 4 new features 😂

[@TheJimMcC]

I mean we haven’t had a major year-to-year iOS redesign since iOS 7 but I feel the incremental updates have created an OS that is vastly visually different from iOS 7, 8, or 9. I’d be happy whether they continued the incremental visual improvements or if they kept it incremental.

[@debopamseal1072]

I don't think they will redesign everything from the ground up. Right now some of the new pages that have been introduced in iOS 16 and 17 are visually a little different already, I think that is a good reference point of where they might go. Some options to change icons, custom icon placements etc, basic things can make a lot of difference.

[@QnjtGWonQNqVsbYyzjx4]

@@CelphirioIf it is gonna get a redesign, it would probably look like macOS Big Sur, you like it there, you will like it here. I think they would spread the redesign into iOS 19 and iOS 20, iOS 18 would be a stability update and AI Siri, iOS 19 would have control centre and half of the apps as well as sideloading while iOS 20 would be the icons and the remaining apps as well as iPad desktop mode. I predict that iOS 18 would stop support for XR, iOS 19 would stop support for XS (Max) and 11, iOS 20 would stop support for 12 (Mini) and 11 Pro (Max)

[@tempestsquall5882]

I want something completely different. The flat UI is so bland, and it keeps getting uglier with incremental changes since 7.

[@AzizRahman1]

I’m going to express a pretty unpopular opinion: I don’t care all that much whether iOS 18 is a major redesign or just has some useful additions. As long as it’s not severely buggy, I’m fine with that.

I feel like I’ve been hearing “major redesign” rumors for iOS for the past 10 years. It’s not happening, Apple is just starting to converge UI consistency with all their OS’s + they’re probably focused more with vision os

[@tchudson75]

literally every year 😂

[@tomasvircik3742]

Focused on vision but yeah, that's why iOs is 5+ years behind with options, usability, customization and basically user experience. They just don't evolve 🤔 just slightly 🤔. Anyway, let's see 😉

What SiRI needs is the ability to understand different accents and answer questions not giving links to web search. Alexa is great at understanding drunk people and Google Assistant even tries to support the Polish language which is one of the hardest to implement.

I’m thrilled af for RCS so that texting the 2 people that I text the most will be easier and I’m hoping like hell for a redesign!!! My fingers are crossed 🤞🏽!!!! I love Apple & iOS but I’m so sick of seeing the same thing on my iPhone!!! I literally upgraded last year to the iPhone 14 Pro Max just because of Dynamic Island. I just wanted to see something different on my screen.🤷🏽‍♀️🤦🏽‍♀️

[@SupertechUSA]

Would be cool to have different choices of redesigns. For example one with more of a professional, corporate but sleek interface, one more animated, and one more calm.

[@Damariobros]

I hope they add app locks to iOS 18 (separate from the device passcode), that is a feature that I have been wanting for years!

[@davidtechnocanal5889]

EU: Must have usb-c and side loading Also EU: Must have removable battery and charging brick Also Also EU: Must include android😂😂😂😂😂

[@Augusto0926]

Essentially Apple will make sideloading so inconvenient that most people will not bother with it. Boss move Apple 😂😂😂😂

[@Shan_Shah]

That is so much apple like

[@MrKevosmin]

I hope they bring back all the iOS 7 animations like the parallax effects in the Home Screen, the translucency, and new volume controls over apps and music

[@amizan8653]

Totally looking forward to a redesign

[@Fransanny57]

The idea that the iPhone 16 will look the same and that we’re using software to make it look like a bigger change then it is scares me because I wonder if they’re gonna keep big features to the newest models only like with the double tap feature in the series 9 AW. This could be the first year that they make really big changes to iOS and keep it only to the newest model.

[@TheThaiLife]

Great video and info as always. I have to LOL at the Baseus attached cable that you can't remove just a tiny bit.

[@robertsimmons7556]

[@CFC_44]

The average user will never side load, they don’t even know what it is.

[@doboy930]

this is why its overblown

[@saurabh161187]

Are they gonna give T9 Keypad in Dialer, gonna make call list separate for all apps or it's gonna be mess in Dial app only, is there gonna be pause button while you record video? These 3 changes I am looking forward to thn and thn only iOS 18 would be biggest update ever or else it's all same.

Yo! Where did you get that Mac wallpaper Edit during the sponsor section

[@MrJuniorLaws]

When apple starts supporting side loading can apple force the other app stores or whatever to up there security before they allow it.

[@D3ltaFreedom]

I honestly don't know much about the Apple IOS, but I was curious as to why there is not a lot of customizations options on the iphone? Don't get me wrong there is a fair bit, but my understanding is Android phones have a wide range of customization options.

[@windows69_v1]

IF theres gonna be circular icons, at least it should be optional imo, i love the square icons!!

[@FJA---]

If somebody sideloads an app and their iPhone and/or Apple System gets infected then their guarantees, warranties and Apple Care should be considered null and void. I don’t know what the big deal about the green bubbles is. If somebody tries to text me and there are green bubbles I just block them so I don’t have to deal with them.

[@rickysekhon5706]

I still love how it looks.Hope they don’t ruin the new looks.

[@FromDesertTown]

Sideloading capability does NOT weaken the security of the iPhone - it is not a security risk unless you deliberately install something that you have not vetted. Just like you vet software that you download from the App Store, you should vet any software that you sideload.

[@RupertFear]

How hard would it be to be given a choice of look?

[@YerStewpid]

I beg to hear more about the redesign! I hear it’s going to have a new spatial UI (Kinda like VisionOS, similar to the action button UI)

[@morto816]

I feel like all the Ai features you mentioned won’t be exclusive to the 16 models but they will get some extra cool features, maybe something similar to the S24 ones

[@bnsyphotography2104]

I really wonder what the UI could look like. Has anyone got any design ideas what it could look like; or some ideas.

[@skyscraperfan]

I have to take a closer look at RCS before I use it. I do not want any meta data to go to Google. I would trust RCS much more, if Google was not involved. And an encryption that is not end-to-eng means that is is decrypted somewhere along the way. That feels like having no encryption at all.

[@FNJ720]

Exactly 😤

[@TThoMusic]

Finally a comment that talks sense. There's a valid reason why Apple have not allowed RCS until now. People think that all these EU changes are great without understanding that it seriously compromises the security and privacy of Apple's devices. I'd much rather have great security/privacy than these stupid changes.

[@KingTechHD]

I just want battery improvements & double tap on my action button. The ultra and 15 pro

[@eddiemunoz3677]

I really hope Apple lets us place the icons anywhere on the home screen like you can with widgets on the iPad and also give us proper theming options instead of lame way it’s done now with third party apps using shortcuts so we don’t have to keep looking at those stupid large icons anymore. So sick of look at it.

In regards to your sponsor, I love Baseus. However, the one you're talking about is not my favorite one. My favorite Baseus MagSafe charger has to be the one where not only does it have a USB-C port where you can bring an extra cord and charge it if you want. I don't see why you would want to. But again, it's a MagSafe wireless charger and it also has a stand. Now, I don't know about you, but a wire just attached to it, I'm sorry, I don't like that. If I do need an extra wire and use this wireless charger to charge something else, which I sometimes do, I'll get a separate wire. But yeah, my favorite is that one. Yours, not so much, but Baseus is an amazing company. Oh, did I mention how sleek my Baseus wireless charger is? Everyone loves it, mainly because of the stand and just how it works.

It’s being able to download apps from the web and other app stores instead of just the App Store.

@@johnmazmanian6589It’s similar to that, but it works on any iOS version and can be done manually with Xcode or through something else like Altstore using an IPA file. You cannot use mods on iphones anymore as far as I know, and the side loading only adds apps to the phone.

[@emirozmen]

What I wish for a is reboot at this point. Including notifications (grouping, stacking, managing… such a mess at this point.), system ui, navigation. It just baffles me that the only way to go back within an app is to reach to the top left corner of the screen (furthest point) for the apps that dont support swipe actions from the left side of the screen. They are hesitant to change almost anything at this point, but it has been 10 years and I think it is some to rebuild rather than tweak. Phones dont have 4 inch screens anymore. But iOS is has been developed for such a screen size.

Honestly.. As far as Apple's OS design goes, I'm ALL for it.. 100%! But what they really need to do, is to incorporate some kind of Themes feature. Sure, we have the Lock and Home Screen customization, with Widgets and other aspects. But they really need to bring in some kind of Themes store or Theme creator, like Android has. I've been with Apple/iPhones, since the very first iPhone was released back in 2007 and I've never used any other manufacturer's handset. So, the UI is a little dull & boring and could use an overhaul. Themes would give far greater customization to that UI.

I have mixed feelings about iOS 18 rumors and even the confirmed features in certain regions, but my main complaint about the iPhone is Siri. Going from "Hey Siri" to "Siri", is not a feature with mentioning. It's nice but not worth the sentence in the iOS 17 keynote whatever. I actually want to see Siri get some attention. I bought a HomePod mini a while back and to this day, I barely used it. It spends 90% of its time unplugged actually, lol. And from my understanding, Siri is worse outside the United States, so hopefully it gets good internationally too.
