Apple's annual WWDC developers conference is in the rearview mirror, but there is still a lot to look forward to over the next year and beyond. In his Power On newsletter today , Bloomberg 's Mark Gurman listed around 20 products that he expects Apple to release across the remainder of 2026 and 2027. Now that the more intelligent and personal version of Siri has finally arrived in beta, a full two years after Apple first previewed it at WWDC 2024, we should begin to see some new devices that were reportedly postponed until the new Siri was ready. Beyond the usual annual updates to iPhones and Apple Watches in September, Gurman said Apple's all-new smart home hub could still arrive this year. He is also expecting a foldable iPhone Ultra and long-awaited updates to the Apple TV and HomePod mini. And a redesigned MacBook Ultra with an OLED display is expected by early next year. Here is what to expect from Apple by the end of 2027, according to Gurman and other sources. iPhones iPhone 18 Pro: A20 Pro chip , a smaller Dynamic Island , a simplified Camera Control button, a Dark Cherry color option , variable aperture for at least one rear camera, Apple's C2 modem with support for 5G web browsing via satellite , and more. iPhone 18 Pro Max: The same features rumored for the iPhone 18 Pro, but the Pro Max model may or may not be slightly thicker . iPhone Ultra: A foldable iPhone Ultra with a 7.7-inch inner display and 5.3-inch outer display , two rear cameras, one front camera, a Touch ID power button instead of Face ID, and more. iOS 27 is expected to be tailored for the foldable iPhone, allowing for side-by-side apps and other iPad-like multitasking functionality. iPhone Air 2: The addition of an Ultra Wide camera, an A20 chip, and longer battery life . iPhone 20 Pro and iPhone 20 Pro Max: Apple's 20th-anniversary iPhone models are rumored to feature a " nearly edge-to-edge display " with "curved glass that wraps around the sides."

Apple last week unveiled five new apps, with four announced at WWDC 2026 alongside its upcoming fall software updates, one released in beta for developers, and one released independently by its subsidiary Claris. Siri AI App One of the biggest announcements of WWDC 2026 was Siri AI , a ground-up rebuild of Apple's voice assistant that for the first time comes with a dedicated standalone app. Like other chatbots, Siri can search the web and access general world knowledge, evaluate documents, solve math problems, and take action in and across apps, such as getting detailed Maps directions with multiple stops, editing and sharing photos, or writing an email in the user's own writing style. The app lets users type or talk to it like a chat thread, and syncs conversation history across all devices through iCloud . The ‌Siri‌ app is available in most of Apple's next-generation operating systems, arriving this fall as part of iOS 27 , iPadOS 27 , macOS Golden Gate , watchOS 27 , and visionOS 27. The operating systems are currently available to developers in beta, though access to Siri AI itself involves a waitlist. ‌Siri‌ AI will not be available in the EU at launch, though Apple says it is working on a path forward. Apple TV Remote App Returns Apple used to offer an Apple TV Remote app in the App Store , but it was removed in 2020. With this year's major updates, Apple is restoring the app as a proper Home Screen icon. It comes pre-installed with ‌iOS 27‌ and ‌iPadOS 27‌. To add it to the ‌Home Screen‌ as an app, users can swipe down, search for "Remote," then tap and hold the app icon to drag it into place. It is also accessible via the App Library. All-New Find My on Apple Watch ‌watchOS 27‌ is bringing a long-overdue consolidation to Find My on Apple Watch . Previously split across separate Find Devices, Find People, and Find Items apps, the new app consolidates everything into a single, map-centric interface. The main screen provides quick access to actions like getting directions and finding nearby items, and Precision Finding is available for locating a paired iPhone, AirPods Pro 3 , or AirTag 2. The redesign also introduces more flexible sharing options, giving users greater control over how they share their location and item tracking with others. Pass Designer Apple also introduced Pass Designer , a new Mac app for building and previewing Apple Wallet passes aimed at developers and businesses. The app supports templates provided by Apple or custom designs, letting developers bring in images such as logos, backgrounds, and strip images. As edits are made, Pass Designer updates a real-time preview using the same rendering as iOS and watchOS, so what is seen in Pass Designer is exactly what customers will see on their device. Pass Designer validates the pass as work progresses, alerting developers to issues such as missing required key values. For boarding passes and event tickets, Pass Designer also supports semantic tags , which add structured data such as event dates, venue locations, and flight details that the system uses to enable features like ‌Siri‌ Suggestions, Calendar integration, and Maps directions. It can also automatically generate a backward-compatible pass structure from semantic data, ensuring passes work across devices where semantic tags may not be supported. Pass Designer beta requires macOS 27 or later and is available to download now for registered Apple developers. Claris FileMaker Go 2026 Unlike the four WWDC announcements, this app is already available. Claris FileMaker Go 2026 became available on June 10. FileMaker is a low-code database application platform that lets users build custom apps to organize, manage, and automate data without extensive programming knowledge. The new version of the app adds support for iOS and iPadOS 26 , and brings Google Gemini to FileMaker's roster of supported AI models, which already includes Anthropic, OpenAI, and Cohere. The 2026 release also focuses on developer productivity, infrastructure resilience, and an AI-ready architecture, and was shaped directly by feedback from the Claris developer community. FileMaker is developed by Claris International , a subsidiary of Apple.
