O Gemini Live permite que os usuários do aplicativo do Gemini para iPhones e iPads tenham uma conversa contínua e mais natural com a inteligência artificial — podendo inclusive interrompê-la quando precisar, bastando começar a falar enquanto ela responde em voz alta.
Porém, você pode simplesmente desativar esse comportamento, impedindo que o Gemini seja interrompido quando você fala algo em voz alta.
Fato é que alguns outros apps também receberam atualizações com essa mesma proposta — além, é claro, de incluir outras novidades. Vamos conferi-los a seguir.
Tripsy
Além de suporte ao iOS 27, o Tripsy — que apareceu na keynote da Apple, diga-se — foi atualizado com algumas outras novidades e melhorias que estão disponíveis como parte dos recursos do Tripsy Pro, entre elas:
Smart Import: importe atividades, locais e reservas de qualquer URL ou documento usando o analisador baseado em IA.
Smart Insights: utilizando os Apple Foundation Models, o aplicativo analisa e compreende o conteúdo de documentos, anexos e emails relacionados às atividades, extraindo apenas as informações relevantes e úteis para apresentá-las aos usuários.
Falando de melhorias, agora é possível encontrar todos os hotéis da sua viagem nas sugestões de localização e dispensar sugestões de partida de aeroportos de que não precisa mais. Ademais, foram aprimoradas as estatísticas de viagem, a estabilidade do mapa e os layouts de importação no Mac.
Por fim, também foi adicionado suporte ao widget extragrande no iPhone para uma melhor visualização do itinerário.
Loop
O player de podcasts Loop ganhou, na sua atualização mais recente, suporte à Siri e aos Atalhos, bem como ao recurso gestos de cabeça dos AirPods compatíveis para pular capítulos de episódios mesmo com o app em segundo plano.
Personalidades do Loop: nas configurações (em “Sobre mim”), agora é possível definir as personalidades que o Loop usará ao gerar o texto da seção “Para você”.
Métricas e estatísticas de escuta: três anéis para você acompanhar seus objetivos de escuta diários e mensais, acompanhando quantos episódios foram finalizados no mês, tempo de escuta diário e variedade de podcasts escutados.
Novos widgets: agora é possível ver o texto da seção “Para você” na Tela de Início em dois tamanhos de widgets (pequeno e médio) além de também ser possível ver seus anéis das métricas de escuta nas Telas de Início e Bloqueada.
O que ouvir em seguida: seção onde novos episódios dos podcasts que você marcou como favoritos e fixados são mostrados para fácil acesso.
O app também recebeu diversas melhorias em áreas como reprodutor de podcasts, busca e episódios baixados, além de uma melhor performance com o app em segundo plano, consumindo muito menos processamento e bateria.
FitWoody
Mais do que o suporte à Siri AI, que possibilita registrar dados por voz com ajuda da assistente, o app de saúde FitWoody agora também permite encontrar informações facilmente com o Spotlight e conta com suporte ampliado ao Handoff. O app também ganhou uma versão nativa para o macOS.

Quanto às melhorias, agora o FitWoody abre diretamente na própria tela, bem como sua pontuação do sono responde a cada noite à medida que ela acontece, de modo que a tela inicial já está completa logo pela manhã.
Steady
O aplicativo de treino Steady chegou à versão 3.0, que tem como destaque o recurso Importação Mágica — de modo que uma foto da ficha da academia, um PDF ou uma mensagem vira um programa de treino editável. Esse recurso usa os novos modelos de IA da Apple em iPhones compatíveis com Apple Intelligence e iOS 27, sem exigir o Steady Pro.
Além disso, o app ganhou planejamento de programas mais inteligente, navegador de programas, recuperação do treino, entre outros recursos.

A atualização também traz drop sets e deixa o app do Apple Watch mais completo, com lista de exercícios, registro de esforço pela Digital Crown e resumo do treino, reduzindo a necessidade de pegar o iPhone enquanto ele permanece por perto.
Ulysses
Já o popular aplicativo de escrita Ulysses ganhou, graças às capacidades da Siri AI, reconhecimento de contexto na tela e um botão dedicado na barra de ferramentas do macOS que abre a nova interface da assistente para escrever, reescrever, revisar e realizar outras tarefas com texto.
Ainda com relação à barra de ferramentas do aplicativo, agora é possível que os usuários a personalizem totalmente com botões de navegação, blocos, espaços, sugestões e muito mais.
We just released a very nice update across all platforms. The new version is ready for OS 27, features support for Siri AI, and introduces a fully customizable toolbar on macOS.
The update is available now. You can find the release notes on our website.https://t.co/TO7PFbVjGt
A atualização também inclui novos ícones de grupo com pictogramas e aprimora o suporte à acessibilidade “ao editar condições de filtro e ícones de grupo”. Por fim, o app recebeu ajustes visuais para melhor alinhar ao visual do iOS 27 e do macOS Golden Gate 27.
The iPhone 18 Pro models support Apple Reference Image, a way to verify that a photo was taken with an iPhone and hasn't been edited. Apple says it's a method to prove that something actually happened and wasn't AI-generated, likening the feature to a digital film negative.
Apple Reference Image offers a trustworthy, scalable guarantee that a reference image is what it claims to be: a real photograph, captured by a real sensor in an iPhone camera, at a specific time. It sets a new standard for verifiable digital photography.
Apple introduced Apple Reference Image when debuting the iPhone 18 Pro and Pro Max, and today the company shared more information on how the feature works on its Security Research blog.
Apple Reference Image boots the camera sensor into a specialized reference mode. The mode instructs the sensor to cryptographically sign pixel data immediately after capture, and the sensor firmware is prevented from modifying the data. Other authentication systems don't sign images until the end of the software processing pipeline, which Apple says leaves images vulnerable to tampering attacks.
Apple Reference Image creates a "secure digital negative" protected from software compromise alongside a standard editable photo. The negative is stored on-device and includes pixel data, sensor metadata, and cryptographic timestamps with lower and upper bounds. When a user decides to "develop" the negative for verification, it is sent unprocessed to Private Cloud Compute. Private Cloud Compute runs the steps needed to render the image in a secure, private, and verifiable environment.
Apple says the feature resists data injection attacks, compromised operating systems, hardware attacks, and cryptographic attacks. Apple believes Apple Reference Image is the only image provenance system with quantum-secure defenses. In case the system is breached, there is a revocation option. Private Cloud Compute calculates a confidence score for each image, and Apple can revoke individual photos or an entire sensor if fraud is detected.
To safeguard photographers, Apple Reference Image avoids using an explicit, public credential for photographers, and it prevents public association between different photos taken by the same sensor. The confidentiality of the image is protected, including from Apple.
Apple Reference Image is opt-in and is limited to the Main camera sensor.
Aplicativos que utilizam uma premissa simples e a transformam em uma experiência interessante são, particularmente, meus favoritos. Exemplo disso é o Farwave, um app para iPhone e iPad desenvolvido pelo brasileiro Fernando Bunn que permite encontrar estações de rádio de todo o mundo girando um globo 3D até uma determinada região e tocando em uma estação.
A interação baseia-se na localização geográfica, e não em pesquisas por texto. Ou seja, os usuários giram o globo, selecionam uma região e tocam em uma estação, tudo pela mesma interface.

Há, ainda, um botão chamado “Take me anywhere” (“Leve-me a qualquer lugar”, em tradução direta) que seleciona uma opção aleatória para ouvintes que não querem procurar um local específico; além disso, o aplicativo salva o histórico de reprodução para que as pessoas possam retornar a uma estação mais tarde.
Além do rádio, o app também organiza podcasts e músicas utilizando a mesma metáfora do globo. Diferentemente das estações de rádio, assinantes Pro podem pesquisar programas ou adicionar manualmente um feed RSS. O aplicativo também oferece suporte a filas de reprodução, velocidade de reprodução ajustável e downloads para ouvir offline.
Assinantes do plano Pro também podem importar seus próprios arquivos de áudio de um computador ou do aplicativo Arquivos. Cada artista aparece como um “sinal” próprio, e as faixas importadas permanecem no dispositivo para reprodução offline.
If you recently installed iOS 27 on iPhone, iPadOS 27 on iPad, or MacOS 27 Golden Gate, you might be wondering where the widely hyped new Siri AI set of features are on your device; a dedicated Siri app, a much smarter Siri AI with chatbot like experience, custom voices, and more. These are all ... Read More

Apple has released iOS 26.7 for iPhone and iPadOS 26.7 for iPad as security focused software updates for users who are not yet ready to jump onto iOS 27 or iPadOS 27. Over 100 security fixes are included in the iOS 26.7 update, but no new features or other changes are along for the ride. ... Read More
Since the launch of the original iPhone in 2007, Apple has released dozens of versions of iOS, introducing new features, design changes, performance improvements, security updates and more. From the early days of iPhone OS through landmark releases such as iOS 7, iOS 14 and the current iOS 27, each version has changed the way we use the iPhone.
Whether you’re trying to identify the version running on your iPhone, check compatibility before upgrading, or find out which releases are still supported, this guide covers every version of iPhone OS and iOS in chronological order – from the original iPhone OS 1 to iOS 27.
Discover the major features introduced with each release, from the App Store and copy and paste to widgets, Apple Intelligence and the new Siri AI introduced with iOS 27.
Below, you’ll find a complete list of iOS versions in order, along with release dates, key features, compatibility and support information.
Which iOS are we on?
The current version of the iPhone operating system is iOS 27. The next major update is likely to be iOS 27.1 in October. The biggest addition coming in iOS 27.1 is expected to be expanded language support for new Siri AI. For details of the latest iOS 27 release, new features, beta updates and compatibility, see our complete iOS 27 Guide.
Apple is also continuing to issue security updates for iOS 26: iOS 26.7 was released alongside iOS 27 on September 14, primarily providing security fixes for users who haven’t yet upgraded.
iOS version history: Every iOS and the features it brought
There are significant milestones scattered across the iOS timeline:
Steve Jobs holding the first iPhone at the launch in 2007.
Apple
iPhone OS (2007): iOS made its debut in 2007 with the first iPhone. However, when Steve Jobs held the little device aloft revealing it to the world for the first time, it wasn’t running iOS 1. Instead, it was reported by Apple to be powered by OS X, the software for the Mac. Over time it was called iPhone OS, until finally gaining its now legendary name in the fourth generation of the software when it was shortened to iOS in 2010.
iPhone OS 2 (2008): The second major release of the iPhone software was groundbreaking because it brought third party apps and introduced the App Store.
iPhone OS 3 (2009): This update was designed to make it easier to find things, while at the same time adding the ability to have up to 11 pages to the Home Screen. Messages could support MMS, Video recording became possible and it was possible to save voice notes with the Voice Memos app.
iOS 4 (2010): Apple changed the name to iOS and added the ability to put apps in folders for a better organised Home screen with iOS 4. The FaceTime, iBooks and Game Centre apps also arrived. The iPad also joined the scene, sharing the same operating system as the iPhone.
iOS 5 (2011): iOS 5 was introduced along with the iPhone 4S in 2011, which saw the debut of Siri as a built-in part of the operating system. The Notification Centre was introduced and iCloud arrived bringing syncronisation between devices. This was the first time iOS could be installed directly on the iPhone without requiring a computer.
iOS 6 (2012): This is where Apple Maps came onto the scene. Podcasts and Passbook (now Wallet) apps also arrived. iCloud Photo Stream made it easier to share photos with family and friends. iOS 6 was the last with a skeuomorphic design.
iOS 7 (2013): With iOS 7 iPhone users got a redesigned user interface, which looked a lot more modern with flatter icons. iOS 7 introduced AirDrop and CarPlay.
iOS 7 had a brand new look (at the time).
Apple
iOS 8 (2014): One of the features of iOS 8 was Continuity, which linked the iPhone, iPad and Mac together, so you could “handoff” tasks from one device to another. Family Sharing also arrived making it easier to manage a child’s iPhone.
iOS 9 (2015): iOS 9 improved the Notes app, added Apple News, and featured a new Night Shift mode that removed some of the blue light that can disturb circadian rhythms and stop someone sleeping.
iOS 10 (2016): There were updates to Messages and changes to the Photos app in iOS 10. A new Home app brought HomeKit control. Maps got a redesign. Universal Clipboard meant that users could copy something on a Mac and paste it on an iPhone, for example.
iOS 11 (2017): Things changed significantly in iOS 11 in 2017 as it brought the first touch and gesture interface, allowing the first iPhone without a Home button – the iPhone X. There was a new Files app making it easier to access content synced or saved in iCloud and the Control Centre got a redesign.
iOS 12 (2018): Screen Time, Memoji, Group FaceTime and Siri Shortcuts were new in iOS 12.
iOS 13 (2019): Another major shift came with iOS 13 in 2019, as Apple’s mobile operating system for the iPad split with the iPhone, with iPadOS powering new iPads. Updates to iOS included Dark Mode, new privacy features and the ability to Sign in with Apple and hide your email address. The Photos and Apple Maps apps got a redesign and a swipe-to-type keyboard was added.
iOS 14 (2020): One of the most notable additions was Back Tap, a feature that effectively turned the back of the iPhone into an extra button. Starting with iOS 14.2, music recognition was built directly into the operating system via a Shazam button.
iOS 15 on iPhone 12.

iOS 15 (2021): Focus Mode arrived in iOS 15 to help users manage the onslaught of notifications, Live Text and Visual Look up made it possible to interact with text within photos (Live Text) and use the camera to identify objects like plants and animals. The Safari browser received a major interface update as did Maps and the Weather app. Read: iOS 15 vs iOS 14.
iOS 16 (2022): One of the most visible changes in iOS 16 was the complete overhaul of the Lock screen, which allowed users to add widgets for the first time to view data at a glance without unlocking their devices. Apple added Rapid Security Responses so that it could deliver important security patches outside of an iOS update. Read: iOS 16 vs iOS 15.
iOS 17 (2023): NameDrop in iOS 17 made it possible to share information by bringing two iPhones together. Stolen Device Protection added a layer of security by requiring biometric authentication (Face ID or Touch ID) before an Apple ID password could be changed. Live Voicemail meant that iPhone users could get a live transaction of a message. Read: iOS 17 vs iOS 16.
iOS 18 (2024): The iOS 18 update laid the groundwork for Apple’s subsequent AI initiatives. There was also a complete redesign of the Photos app, a dedicated Passwords app, Control Center Customization and Live Activities (so you could see when your dinner delivery is arriving). Read: iOS 18 vs iOS 17.
iOS 26 (2025): Rather than progress to iOS 19, Apple aligned the numbering of all its operating systems according to the year with iOS 26. It wasn’t just a name change though, there was a significant visual and functional overhaul with a Liquid Glass design language. Big changes also came to the Phone app with Call Screening and Hold Assist. Live Translations make it easy to communicate with foreign friends and colleagues. The Camera app had a simplifying redesign and a Games app replaced Game Centre. Here’s how how iOS 26 and iOS 18 compare.
iOS 27 (2026): iOS 27 launch in September 2026, including a massive overhaul of Siri, better Apple Intelligence integration, improved photo and camera tools, and parental control enhancements. Here’s how iOS 26 and iOS 27 compare.

List of iOS versions and latest versions
Here’s a breakdown of all the versions of iOS that have been released, when they were released, when they were last updated, and the latest iOS version.
As of September 2026, iOS 27 is Apple’s current iPhone operating system and the version receiving new features and functionality. It can run on the iPhone 11 and newer, as well as the iPhone SE (2nd generation) and later.
Every iPhone that supports iOS 26 also supports iOS 27, but Apple is continuing to maintain iOS 26 with security updates, at least for now. On September 14, Apple released iOS 26.7 alongside iOS 27, allowing users who haven’t yet upgraded to iOS 27 to continue receiving important security fixes.
Apple also periodically releases security updates for considerably older versions of iOS on devices that can no longer upgrade to a newer release.
Which iOS versions get security updates only?
Even after Apple stops developing new features for older versions of iOS, it continues to issue security updates for some time. As explained in How long does Apple support iPhones?, Apple often provides security patches for devices that can’t run the latest version of iOS.
For example, in August 2026, Apple released an iOS 18 security update that addressed several vulnerabilities. This update was only available for iPhone XS, iPhone XS Max, and iPhone XR (models that cannot upgrade to iOS 26) as Apple generally expects supported devices to move to the latest operating system for ongoing security updates. However, this demonstrates that older devices, such as the iPhone XR and XS series, continue to receive security support even though they are unable to run iOS 26.
Support extends even further back. Also in May 2026, Apple issued security updates for iOS 15 and iOS 16 (Apple doesn’t maintain support for iOS 17 as all compatible handsets can run iOS 18). Updates iOS 15.8.8 and iOS 16.7.16 patched critical vulnerabilities in older devices, including:
iPhone 6s (all models)
iPhone 7 (all models)
iPhone SE (1st gen)
iPhone 8 and 8 Plus
iPhone X
Many of those iPhones are included in Apple’s list of Obsolete and Vintage iPhones. iPhone 6s, iPhone SE, iPhone 8 and 8 Plus are all Obsolete, while the iPhone X and iPhone 7 are considered Vintage. Notably, the oldest: 2015’s iPhone 6s continues to receive security updates, marking over ten years of support.
Apple may cease support for iOS 15 and iOS 16 now that iOS 27 has launched, but we have not had confirmation of this beyond the absence of a security update in conjunction with iOS 27 and iOS 26.
Earlier, in January 2026, Apple also released updates for iOS 12 to extend support for certificates required by services such as iMessage, FaceTime, and device activation, ensuring these features continue to work beyond January 2027. This means that even the aged iPhone 5s received some support in 2026.
12 years ago today, Apple published a web page with one job: to make a U2 album go away. On September 9, 2014, at Apple's iPhone 6 event, Tim Cook revealed that "Songs of Innocence" would be given to every iTunes customer for nothing. The album was directly linked to accounts, and devices set to "download automatically" got it without asking.
Complaints quickly followed, and on September 15, Apple was forced to respond with a one-click page that stripped the album from accounts. Users were given a month to reinstall it at no cost. Apple said 26 million people ultimately downloaded the full album. Bono apologized a month later. The web tool is no longer active, but an archive of the support page is available here. This article, "Apple's Weirdest iTunes Walk-Back Turns 12 Today" first appeared on MacRumors.com
iOS 27 is now available for iPhone, along with iPadOS 27 for iPad. This is the final version of iOS 27, after a several months long beta development and testing process. All eligible iPhone models and iPad devices can download and install the iOS 27 or ipadOS 27 upgrade, respectively, at their leisure. iOS 27 ... Read More
