Major focus on Siri and Apple Intelligence
This year's WWDC event is crucial for Siri and Apple Intelligence. Apple is emphasizing making its virtual assistant, Siri, smarter and more useful than ever. The company has been working to strengthen its AI strategy for some time, and several new announcements have been made in this direction. Apple aims to take Siri and its AI capabilities to the next level. While the company had previously delayed certain features and relied on Google's technologies for some tasks, it now intends to bolster its AI ecosystem through Apple Intelligence, aiming to provide users with a smarter and more personalized experience.
Performance boosts and changes to Liquid Glass
With iOS 27, Apple has focused not only on new features but also on performance improvements. The company claims that photos will load 70 percent faster than before, while AirDrop transfers will be up to 80 percent faster. Additionally, improvements to the CPU scheduler will enhance the multitasking experience. Regarding design, changes have been made to the Liquid Glass interface introduced last year. Users who did not particularly like this design will now be able to tone down some of its effects, while those who do like it will have the option to use it more prominently. Apple states that the aim of these changes is to make the user experience more flexible and personalized.
