However, there are a few significant developments expected at the conference, including opening on-device foundation models to third-party developers. Introduction of iOS 26/19 (name TBD) and third-party AI integration support. Below are the devices set to receive the new Apple Intelligence features in 2025.

Note – Some features mentioned here, such as iOS 26 naming and other upcoming features, including third-party AI Integration (Gemini) and macOS AI tools, are highly speculative and not officially confirmed by Apple.
