Our premium users today get many valuable products like our AI-Assistant, advanced spam blocking opportunities and fraud insurance, to mention a few. From January, our premium users on iOS now also get the Live Caller ID solution. Our strategy on iOS and optimization of the product and conversion, has shown a promising trend. Our family package, where you can include up to four more family members in the premium package and get a discounted price, has also seen encouraging growth."

WWDC25: iOS 26 to game app, iPhone 17 Air preview; what to expect on June 9
Apple is set to kick off its annual Worldwide Developers Conference (WWDC25) on June 9, with a keynote event expected to showcase the next generation of platforms for iPhones, Macs, iPads, and more. While the spotlight will be on major software updates, Apple is also likely to unveil new features for native apps, upgrades to AirPods, and — if a recent teaser is any indication — a preview of the ultra-thin iPhone 17 'Air'. Apple WWDC25: What to expect Platform updates Apple is widely expected to introduce a sweeping visual redesign across iOS, macOS, visionOS, and other platforms. This includes a unified design language featuring translucent menus, dynamic motion effects, and a consistent UI across devices. The company is also rumoured to change the naming convention for its OS line-up. For example, the next iPhone update may be called iOS 26 instead of iOS 19, bringing version numbers across platforms into alignment. iOS 26: Bloomberg previously reported that iOS 26 will be the biggest overhaul since iOS 7. Internally codenamed Solarium, the update draws inspiration from visionOS, with translucent panels, subtle motion effects, and dynamically shimmering UI elements. Apple is also said to be refreshing app icons — making them rounder — and redesigning app navigation bars to float, improving in-app search and usability. Other features may include: A redesigned camera app, with more accessible controls. AI-powered battery optimisation, learning user habits to extend battery life. Wireless eSIM transfers, aimed at making it easier to switch from iOS to Android. macOS 26: The next macOS release could be named macOS Tahoe, continuing the tradition of California landmark-themed names. macOS 26 is expected to adopt the same visual updates as iOS, including redesigned app icons and floating navigation elements. New features may include: Captive Wi-Fi portal syncing across devices. Vehicle Motion Cues to reduce motion sickness. iPhone camera magnifier support for accessibility. iPadOS 26: iPadOS will likely follow suit with visual changes and new multitasking tools, including: A Stage Manager 2.0 for improved window management. Integration of a Mac-style menu bar, bringing the iPadOS experience closer to macOS. watchOS 26: Apple Watch may also get an iOS-like aesthetic overhaul. Additionally, 9To5Mac recently reported that Apple could introduce new features like third-party widgets in the Control Centre, allowing developers to place app-specific quick actions next to native controls like Wi-Fi and Battery. Apple TV and CarPlay: Apple is expected to revamp both tvOS and CarPlay, with a focus on visual consistency and improved usability across the ecosystem. New features for apps While most attention will be on platform-level design updates, Apple is also expected to enhance several native apps: Messages: Automatic translation of chats and support for polls — possibly AI-assisted. Music: Animated album art expanding to the Lock Screen. Notes: Ability to export notes in Markdown format. Two of Apple's existing apps are also in for major overhauls: Health app: New AI-powered health coaching, personalised wellness advice, expert-led videos, and first-time support for food tracking. Game Centre: Transformed into a cross-platform hub for launching games, tracking achievements, and accessing curated gaming content on iPhone, iPad, Mac, and Apple TV. Apple Intelligence and Siri While not the main focus this year, Apple Intelligence is still expected to gain important updates: A new software development kit (SDK) for developers to integrate Writing Tools and other AI functions into third-party apps. Partnerships with AI providers like Google and Anthropic, adding to the current integration with OpenAI's ChatGPT. A look at the LLM-powered Siri, which will support on-screen awareness, personal context, and natural language interactions. iPhone 17 Air preview Apple's teaser image for WWDC 2025, bearing the tagline 'Sleek Peek,' has sparked speculation that the company may preview its ultra-thin iPhone 17 Air during the keynote. The device is expected to feature a 5.5mm thin body—making it Apple's slimmest smartphone to date—and may replace the Plus model in the iPhone 17 line-up. Reports suggest a 6.6-inch display, A19 chip, and 24MP front camera, though launch is still expected in September. New AirPods features Apple may also use WWDC 2025 to introduce new AirPods firmware updates, adding features like: Sleep auto-pause, which detects when users fall asleep and pauses audio. Camera control, allowing users to trigger the iPhone or iPad camera via a tap on the AirPods stem. New head gestures to control Conversation Awareness mode. Audio Mix, a feature from iPhone 16 that separates vocals from ambient sound using AI and lets users select voice profiles like Studio or Cinematic.

Sleek Peek: Could Apple Tease iPhone 17 Air At WWDC 2025 Next Week?
Last Updated: Apple WWDC 2025 is just a few days away it the company teasers suggest a surprise reveal could be part of the big event. Apple WWDC 2025 will be a big affair once again and most people will be glued to the keynote event on Monday when Tim Cook and Co. walk us through new platforms. However, Apple has made a cheeky habit of teasing upcoming products and this year we could get our first look at the iPhone 17 Air model next week. These hints come via a new WWDC 2025 teaser from the company which says Sleek Peek, and going by the rumours around the ultra-thin iPhone variant, it is easy to see why people expect Apple to give us a peek into the new product. Having said that, Apple does focus on the new iOS, macOS and iPadOS platforms at the developer conference, so it could be linked to a new sleek interface for the latest iOS 26 and macOS 26 versions launching this year. Apple generally keeps these big reveals close to its chest, so we are entirely sure if the Sleek Peek tagline actually refers to the iPhone 17 Air model. Also, WWDC 2025 mainly focuses on the developer stuff so that Apple can start building the platforms for its new iPhones, macs and iPads coming later in the year. iPhone 17 Air: Apple's Big Launch In 2025 The iPhone 17 Air will sit in a unique position in the series lineup later this year. Earlier leaks suggested the iPhone 17 Air will come with a 2,800mAh battery which will help the device to weigh around 145 grams and get 5.5mm thickness. However, new details hint at a different plan which in some ways is better than the earlier reports. Reports also claim the OLED display will be the heaviest part of the iPhone 17 Air along with the battery. The new model is likely to get a single 48MP rear camera, powered by Apple's A19 chipset and offered with 8GB RAM support Apple AI features and tools. Samsung's Galaxy S25 Edge has made a slow start since its debut and Apple will be keeping a close eye on how the market responds to its own sleek device when it comes out later this year. We'll be eager to see if the 17 Air does make an appearance at the WWDC 2025 next week and keep you updated on all the details from the event. First Published: June 06, 2025, 07:20 IST

iOS 26, iPadOS 26, macOS 26 May Drop Support for Older Apple Devices: Full Compatibility List
Apple is gearing up for its annual Worldwide Developers Conference (WWDC 2025), set to run from June 9 to June 13. This year, anticipation is especially high as Apple is reportedly making a major shift in how it names its operating systems — moving from iOS 18 to iOS 26 to better align with the calendar year. While this rebranding promises a fresh start, it also brings tough news for users of older devices. Leaks and early reports suggest that several iPhones, iPads, and Macs may not be compatible with iOS 26, iPadOS 26, and macOS 26. With every new update, Apple typically phases out support for aging hardware, and this year appears to be no different. Expected iOS 26 Compatible iPhones: iPhone 11 series iPhone 12 series iPhone 13 series iPhone 14 series iPhone 15 series iPhone 16 series iPhone SE (2nd gen and newer) Expected iPadOS 26 Compatible iPads: iPad Pro (2018 and later) iPad Air (3rd gen and later) iPad mini (5th gen and later) iPad (8th gen and later) Devices released before 2018 may no longer be eligible for software updates. Expected macOS 26 Compatible Macs (likely called macOS Tahoe): MacBook Pro (2019 and newer) MacBook Air (M1 and newer) iMac (2020 and newer) Mac Pro (2019 and newer) Mac mini (M1 and newer) Mac Studio (all models) Older Intel-based models, including the 2018 MacBook Pro and 2020 MacBook Air, may be dropped. In addition to compatibility changes, Apple is reportedly planning a sweeping visual redesign across all its platforms. Internally codenamed 'Solarium,' the update is said to draw design inspiration from visionOS, bringing rounded icons, translucent effects, and a smoother UI — reminiscent of the shift to iOS 7. Functional upgrades may include improved battery management, smarter multitasking, and a desktop mode for USB-C-enabled iPhones. A unified gaming platform might also debut, integrating progress across Apple devices via Game Center. While WWDC is typically software-focused, there's also speculation about new hardware reveals, including glimpses of the next Mac Pro or even an early look at the rumoured iPhone 17 Air.
