Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman questioned the authenticity of the leaks, especially in light of his previous statement that iOS 19 would be “The most significant update” to iOS in years. But now Prosser has returned with more images of the next major iOS build. He says that app icons are not exactly round like in visionOS, but are shaped somewhere between the current design and the circle used in watchOS and visionOS.
It looks as though Apple will add more depth and shadows to menus and moving the iPhone screen will make some elements shimmer. As Prosser notes, this helps the elements look as though they are made of glass. The App Store bar will float as a new UI surfaces when you tap the Search tab. The search field on the Messages app will move to the bottom of the screen.
Did Prosser and his sources nail it this time? We might know by the time the Keynote is over.
