Apple is set to introduce a new numbering system for its operating systems, indicating an imminent shift to 'iOS 26' and other OS version numbers.
References to 'macOS 16' and other placeholder names have been removed from the developer betas ahead of WWDC.
Reports suggest that Apple will simplify its OS version numbering, with all operating systems likely to adopt the version number 26, representing the year 2026.
AppleInsider has confirmed the rebranding efforts, signaling a significant change in how Apple's operating systems will be numbered.
