Confused by Apple Naming convention? You are not the only one. Bloomberg According to reports, at WWDC this year, Apple plans to announce extensive reforms to all its operating systems. This includes renaming them to more consistently. It is reported that starting this year, Apple will start representing each OS version of each product by year rather than by version. Confusingly, it will Next One year, not this year (like a car). So the version we will see at WWDC this year will not be iOS 25, but iOS 26, WatchOS 26, etc., instead of iOS 19 and Watchos 12.
The move is reportedly part of a larger push to cross-platform leap cohesive user experience. The overhaul may include updated icons, applications, buttons, and new design languages and is expected to be universal across all operating systems. Apple's fundamentally simple and irresistible user interface is a core part of the company's DNA, so it's fun to see customers react to a large redesign (hopefully better than the Apple Photos redesign). We will find it on WWDC, which will start at 1pm on June 9. - Adrienne
After a certain feature sounded softly when it launched the OnePlus 13 in January, OnePlus is now ready to go all out with its phone. Its approach is very similar to what was introduced a few months ago in the Nothing Phone (3A) series: a dedicated AI button on the side of the phone, although this replaces the original OnePlus Alert Slider.

You can customize it as a "plus" key to trigger a specific app or shortcut on your phone, with its interface almost exactly like Apple's action buttons. By default, it launches AI Plus Mind, which will save anything on the screen so you can remember later. The idea is that when you see an ad or invitation event for a concert while browsing, you will press it - pressing the plus key will save the relevant information in the companion app and the app will extract useful information to create calendar events on your behalf.
Plus Key and Ai Plus Mind will debut on the OnePlus 13S, a call launched in June this year at Select Markets; it's not coming to the United States. Later this year, AI features will be launched with the OnePlus 13 series, and other devices will follow. OnePlus says it is actively investigating more features such as AI Voicescribe, recording, summarizing and translating calls and conferences; AI translation, combining all translation functions into one application; and AI reframes, adjusting the composition of lenses by generating AI.
