Massive iOS 27 leak shows off Apple’s new Siri app, Camera, Dynamic Island takeover
Macworld In a bombshell report barely a week before the WWDC keynote on June 8, Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman has concluded his string of iOS 27 leaks with his biggest one yet: a full report of how different the new Siri will look across the system. It was only about 18 months ago when Siri’s new “glow” interface landed on iPhones, and now it appears Apple is shifting to a new darker interface. As Gurman describes, Apple has “redesigned Siri for modern iPhone hardware,” giving it a home in the Dynamic Island, a chatbot of its own, and full integration with the Camera app. Gurman reports Siri will still be triggered by its “Siri” wake word or by holding down the power button, but rather than an on-screen animation, it will now show “a redesigned Siri animation in the Dynamic Island.” Additionally, users will also be able to “swipe down from the top center of the iPhone anywhere in the system” to launch a new “Search or Ask” field for silent interactions using the keyboard. In the current system, users need to double-tap the bottom edge of the screen to bring up the Type to Siri interface. Bloomberg Gurman describes the interface for the new Siri, which you can also see above: From there, users can launch apps, start text messages, ask about the weather, add calendar appointments, search through notes, trigger shortcuts within apps, or search the web using Apple’s new AI-powered search system, which competes with tools like Perplexity. Results are displayed in a rich text card that pops out of the Dynamic Island. Users can swipe down further to open a chatbot-style conversation inside the Siri app. … When users ask for information, Siri presents rich text cards and results for topics such as people, places and news headlines. Similar cards also appear for weather forecasts and sports scores, as well as results pulled from a user’s own data, including notes, text messages, emails, contacts, calendar appointments and reminders. Based on the images, this is a shift from the previous colorful Apple Intelligence scheme. When it launched in 2024, the branding followed a gradient of blue, purple, pink, and orange, which extended to the Siri glow around the screen. While you can see a slight rainbow reflection around the search bar, based on these images, the new Siri will be much more restrained. Bloomberg Of course, the new look is just the first part of the Siri rebrand. The chatbot will also be a lot smarter, as Gurman reports, with a greater understanding of what’s on the screen: “In the interface planned by Apple, you can ask it for times you are available for appointments before scheduling something and for overlapping events. You can also ask the assistant to write emails, notes or text messages using information from the web and device content. That could include asking for a note to be created about how to fix a car engine or an email including your calendar availability.” Additionally, Siri will include the delayed features announced in 2024, including the ability to understand personal data, conduct actions within apps, and analyze on-screen content. Finally, Siri will also gain a new home in the Camera app, which “would replace today’s Visual Intelligence experience and let users take photos and have them analyzed by a third-party AI agent or put into a Google reverse image search.” Images show a “Siri” selection between “Video” and “Photo” at the bottom of the screen. You can expect the new Siri to debut at WWDC on June 8, following months-long beta testing ahead of wide release in September.

Our 5-star, fully loaded MacBook Air just got an incredible $500 discount
Macworld Apple MacBook Air M4 View Deal (function () { document.querySelector("#sticky-promo-block a").addEventListener("click", function(e) { const debug = document.location.host.search(/lndo.site|go-vip.net/) !== -1; const text = this.closest("#sticky-promo-block").querySelector("p.promo-title").textContent; const data = { event: "stickyConversionUnitClick", eventCategory: "Sticky Conversion", eventAction: "Click", eventLabel: text }; if(debug)console.log("Sticky Conversion CLick - pushing to dataLayer: ", data); dataLayer.push(data); return true; }); })(); The most future-proof MacBook Air configuration, with maxed-out memory, all the storage, and a powerful chip, isn’t usually the model we recommend. At nearly $2,500, it usually costs almost as much as a 16-inch MacBook Pro, but today’s deal at B&H Photo, which slashes $500 off the M4 MacBook Air, brings the price down to $1,799. We gave this laptop a perfect 5-star rating and our Editors’ Choice award, praising the M4 chip for delivering a great performance whether you’re editing video, juggling a dozen browser tabs, or running demanding creative apps. We also appreciated the fact that it supports two external 6K displays at 60Hz, a serious upgrade for anyone who loves multitasking. Even if you’re not a video professional or content creator, the extra RAM and storage will definitely be worth it at this price. Not only will you be able to fly through everything you do, but you’ll also get a laptop that will run just as smoothly in two, three, even five years from now. The Liquid Retina display will deliver vibrant images, while the 12MP Center Stage camera will keep the focus on you when you’re in video calls or shooting vids. And with up to 18 hours of battery, you’ll have a lot of freedom to move between places without carrying a charger. At $1,799, it’s one of the best laptop deals you’re going to find right now. So go grab one before they’re gone forever.

I switched to a 4-year-old iPhone and cured myself of the upgrade bug
Macworld Every September, Apple convinces millions of people that their current iPhone suddenly feels old. There’s always a new camera feature, a faster chip, a longer battery life, or some AI-powered trick designed to create that familiar feeling: maybe it’s time to upgrade. This year, I decided to test something. Rather than moving forward, I went backwards. I swapped my iPhone 17 Pro Max for an iPhone 13 Pro Max as my main phone. Not because I had to, but because I wanted to see how much I would actually miss. And the answer surprised me. After weeks using a four-year-old iPhone, I realized something uncomfortable for Apple’s upgrade cycle: modern iPhones have become so good that the differences barely matter for most people anymore. Sure, I missed a few things. But not nearly enough to make me desperate to go back. The iPhone downgrade that didn’t feel like one Before switching, I expected the iPhone 13 Pro Max to feel outdated. After all, we’re talking about a phone released in 2021. It still has a notch, and it uses Lightning instead of USB-C. There’s no Dynamic Island or Camera Control, not even Apple Intelligence. But as I stared using it, it became clear that this is still a modern and quite capable smartphone. Yes, it’s not as fast or powerful as my iPhone 17 Pro Max. But the speed seems fast enough that it doesn’t bother me most of the day. Apps don’t take much longer to open, and the animations seem smooth, probably because this was the first iPhone to feature a ProMotion display with a 120Hz refresh rate. The battery also surprised me. Obviously, I wasn’t expecting much, especially since the battery health is below 90%. But for light use, it lasts all day. A battery replacement (which costs much less than a brand-new phone) would certainly make this iPhone last much longer. Even a four-year-old iPhone’s camera are surprisingly good.Foundry The iPhone 13 Pro Max’s cameras are also surprisingly good by today’s standards. I love photography, so every little upgrade matters to me. But to be honest, I’ve realized that I can still take amazing photos with the 13 Pro Max. The cameras are more than good enough for social media. Things get even better when I use Halide to take Process Zero photos (which I’ve already written an article about here on Macworld). Sure, I miss having a little more zoom range (it has 3x zoom versus 4x to 8x on the 17 Pro Max) or the ability to filter out background noise in videos with Audio Mix. But overall, the iPhone 13 Pro Max’s cameras are still pretty decent. The iPhone 13 Pro Max can still take very good photos.Foundry At the end of the day, it still feels like I’m using a modern iPhone. Especially since the iPhone’s design hasn’t changed much in four years. Features I missed, and those I didn’t There are definitely things I miss from the latest iPhones, but mostly in the “nice to have” category rather than “I can’t live without this.” USB-C is probably the biggest one. Going back to Lightning feels annoying in 2026, especially because almost every other device I own now uses USB-C. Charging with the same cable as my MacBook, iPad, and accessories is quite convenient, and it’s one of the few upgrades that affects daily life. I also miss the Dynamic Island more than I expected. Not because it’s revolutionary, but because it quietly improves the experience in small ways. Dynamic Island makes using your iPhone better in small but meaningful ways.Foundry I never saw it as a “must-have” feature, but now that I’m using the iPhone 13 Pro Max, I find myself missing little things like being able to see a timer’s progress or information about my Uber ride without having to open apps or check the Lock Screen. Returning to the notch feels like going back to an older version of iOS, even though functionality is mostly the same. At the same time, there are plenty of things I definitely didn’t miss after the downgrade. For instance, I barely noticed that Camera Control was gone. Apple heavily promoted Camera Control when it was introduced with the iPhone 16 lineup. But it turns out I rarely use it. In fact, I’ve even disabled the touch gestures because I find them annoying. Camera Control has essentially become a shortcut I use to open Halide more quickly. The same goes for the Action Button, which replaces the old mute switch. I know people who love being able to set different actions for this button, but I’ve never changed its default function, which is to act as a mute button. Action Button? I didn’t miss it.Foundry Another thing I didn’t miss was Apple Intelligence. Yes, the notification summary is pretty convenient. But other than that, I rarely create my own Genmoji, and Siri isn’t very helpful with or without Apple Intelligence at this point. There are many things Apple announces every year that make us feel like we’re missing out. Everything sounds exciting in the keynotes and ads. But when you take a closer look, you realize that not all of them have a real impact on the basic use of a smartphone. The best iPhone might be the one you already own This experiment also reinforced something the tech industry doesn’t always want to admit: smartphone upgrades have become incremental. That doesn’t mean the new iPhones are bad. The iPhone 17 Pro Max is certainly better than the iPhone 13 Pro Max in many ways. The cameras are better, the display is brighter, and the CPU is more powerful. But maybe you don’t need all that. Do you really need Camera Control enough to buy a new iPhone?Foundry Years ago, the leaps between each generation were more noticeable, because smartphone technology was still in its early stages. Now, the improvements are refinements that are hard to notice in everyday use. That’s actually a sign of maturity. Smartphones have peaked in the same way laptops peaked years ago. A modern flagship phone can comfortably last four or even five years without feeling unusable. And Apple deserves credit for that longevity. This iPhone 13 Pro Max runs the same iOS 26 as my iPhone 17 Pro Max. Tech enthusiasts (myself included) often get excited about new products and see them as “must-haves.” But switching back to an older iPhone reminded me that this isn’t the case for most everyday users. For most people, all they need is a reliable phone. So yes, a new iPhone is coming soon. And it’s sure to be exciting, especially if the rumors about a foldable iPhone are true. But maybe you’ll be fine waiting another year before upgrading. Or even opt for a cheaper model, like the base iPhone 17 or even the iPhone 17e, instead of the fancier Pro models. Getting a new phone is always fun, but maybe you don’t need the latest and greatest.

Apple teased an iOS 27 feature so exciting, I need it right now
Macworld When people think about Accessibility features on the iPhone, they usually imagine tools designed for a relatively small group of users with specific needs. But every now and then, Apple introduces something that has the potential to change the way everyone interacts with their devices. That’s exactly what happened last week. As part of its annual Accessibility preview ahead of WWDC, Apple announced a new version of Voice Control powered by Apple Intelligence. In theory, it sounds like a simple upgrade designed to help users control their iPhone using natural voice commands. But reading between the lines, it feels like Apple just teased one of the biggest features of iOS 27 before the keynote in June. And honestly, this might be one of the most exciting Apple Intelligence features yet. Apple is finally bringing natural voice commands to iOS Voice control on the iPhone isn’t new, and I’m not even talking about Siri. iOS already has an Accessibility feature that lets users perform specific tasks using only their voice. However, this feature has always seemed somewhat robotic and only works with very specific commands and phrases. But what Apple teased is completely different. Instead of relying on strict command structures, Apple says users will be able to interact with their iPhone more conversationally using Apple Intelligence. You’ll soon be able to interact with things like folders on your iPhone just by asking.Apple Instead of having to memorize labels and commands, users will simply be able to say what they actually want to do, and Voice Control will understand. In the example shown by Apple, the user says, “Tap the orange folder,” and then asks the iPhone to open a file on the screen and zoom in on a specific section of the document. Essentially, Apple is using Apple Intelligence models to understand what’s on the screen in real time and control everything based on voice commands. “This can also help users overcome barriers when elements aren’t properly labeled for accessibility,” the company said in a press release. Without a doubt, this feature represents a major breakthrough for users with disabilities. But it also hints at something much bigger. This looks a lot like the rumored new Siri Back in 2024, when Apple unveiled the features of Apple Intelligence, the company teased a brand-new Siri that would have agentic capabilities. The assistant would be able to control certain aspects of the phone using natural voice commands. Among the examples Apple showcased back then were commands such as adding an address from a conversation in the Messages app to a contact card or sending the link to the webpage you’re viewing in Safari to someone. It’s no secret that this feature has yet to see the light of day. But for over a year, reports have suggested that Apple has been working on an upgraded Siri experience for iOS 27. The rumored assistant is expected to understand on-screen context, control apps, and perform actions across the operating system more intelligently. In other words: less “set a timer” and more “open this file and send it to John.” The accessibility feature Apple teased this week sounds a lot like that, and that’s probably no coincidence. Apple has a long history of using accessibility features as a testing ground for broader interface changes. Features originally designed for accessibility often end up becoming mainstream features. AssistiveTouch, Live Captions, and even mouse support have eventually expanded beyond their original purpose. This new Voice Control enhancement feels like the clearest sign yet that Apple’s next-generation Siri architecture is almost ready. Apple’s upcoming Voice Control features seems similar to Samsung’s Voice Access.Foundry Universal control There’s another reason I’m excited about this feature besides seeing a new version of Siri. More specifically, I’ve already had experience with a very similar feature on another device. The new version of Voice Control announced by Apple reminded me of something I tested earlier this year on the Galaxy S26 Ultra. Samsung’s Voice Access feature was recently updated with AI models designed to understand natural language, and it’s genuinely impressive. You can navigate through apps, open menus, scroll through pages, tap specific UI elements, and perform fairly complex tasks entirely with your voice. It’s one of those features that makes you realize how outdated traditional voice assistants suddenly feel. It’s not something I use all the time, but it’s pretty handy when my hands are full, and I need to do something on my phone, like open a chat and send someone a voice message. After using it for a while, going back to Siri felt more constricted than ever. Apple Intelligence and Siri are expected to be the focus of the upcoming iOS 27 update.Apple The potential of Apple Intelligence One of the main criticisms of Apple Intelligence so far is how limited it feels. Notification Summaries can be useful, Writing Tools are occasionally convenient, and Genmoji is fun for a few minutes. But none of them really change the way you use your iPhone. Having an AI assistant that can understand exactly what you need, even when you don’t use specific commands, is a game-changer. It’s the kind of feature that has the potential to make our lives much easier. Most people probably won’t spend the whole day talking to their phone, but it’s nice to know the feature is there for when you need a little help opening or finding something. Unsurprisingly, Apple isn’t making a big deal out of it, probably because it’s saving the best for next month’s WWDC keynote. But I’m already excited to finally see the first signs of a truly AI-powered Siri.

Surprise! Your iPhone, iPad, or Mac is worth a little more today
Macworld While these things generally move in the other direction, Apple has surprisingly raised the maximum amount of money it offers for trade-ins on a host of popular products. When you trade in your old Apple product toward the purchase of a new one, you can now earn just a bit more money (assuming your iPhone, iPad, Mac, or Apple Watch is in good condition). Most of the maximum trade-in values have increased from $5 to $20, with a few outliers offering more, including MacBook Air and Mac mini. Some example trade-in values: iPhone 16 Pro Max: increased $10 from $685 to $695 iiPhone 16: Increased $25 from $435 to $460 Apple Watch Series 9: Increased $10 from $120 to $130 MacBook Air: Increased $35 from $485 to $520 Mac mini: Increased $35 from $340 to $375 iPad Pro: Increased $20 from $670 to $690 iPad Air: Increased $15 from $445 to $460 Not all prices went up, however. The Apple Watch Series 10 ($150) and iMac ($355) prices remain unchanged, and the Apple Watch Ultra actually went down $10 from $215 to $205. Trade-in values for most Android phones went down or remain unchanged, too. The new prices likely reflect the cost of components inside the products being traded in. To get the maximum value for a trade-in, your device needs to be working and in good condition, which means the chip inside works. And each of those chips contains RAM, which is in short supply at the moment. To get started trading in your old gear toward a new Apple product, visit Apple’s trade-in site. Prices will vary based on the condition of your phone/tablet/watch/laptop. Before you trade in or sell anything, check out our guides on how to sell your Mac and how to sell your iPhone, to ensure you go through the steps to make sure all your data is removed and unrecoverable.
