Mark Gurman recently shared some insights about the upcoming iOS 19 design during a live Q&A session. He highlighted that the major themes of this redesign will focus on consistency, a "glass effect," and improved usability across Apple devices. Gurman emphasized that the goal is to unify the user interfaces of the iPhone, iPad, and Mac, addressing existing differences in controls and menu designs.
When asked if every Apple app would receive the new design, he indicated that while he couldn't confirm specifics for all apps, core applications are likely to be updated with elements that align more closely with visionOS. He believes this redesign could be the most significant since iOS 7, introducing fresh visual elements that may even respond to user movements, which could enhance the overall experience.
