At the June event of WWDC, 24, Apple unveiled its latest, grandest update of the suite- iOS 18, which is sure to catch the iPhone up to the speed of the Android. Apple had also announced that the updates would start rolling out in the later part of the year, which essentially is the code word for “See you September for the other Apple Event”.
The September 9 Event has been announced to be the release of the iPhone 16 and its related line up along with the next-in-the line Apple Watch 10 (Interestingly, it is also the 10th Anniversary of Apple Watch Series, if you count from the first time it was announced), The announcements has sent “Gurus” on a roll predicting that Apple is more likely to merge iPhone 16 and iOS 18’s release.

Addressing iOS 18 rumours 2024
Speculations are being made that while iOS 18 makes a lot of its attributes based on its integration with Apple Intelligence, it is quite possible according to the latest iOS 18 rumours 2024 that Apple Intelligence may not be a part of the initial rollout altogether. Apple seems to be hell-bent on making sure that its AI is absolutely impeccable.
Is there any Substance to the iOS 18 Rumours 2024?
Of course. Many of the iOS 18 rumours 2024 have been coming from the person of Mark Gurman, who is no newbie in the tech industry. Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman has been conspicuously predicting news about Apple’s releases and has entertained a staggering 84.38% accuracy. He has worked at 9to5Mac and has predicted big news like Apple’s very own switch to its trademark mapping system, iPad Air, etc. He also predicted the infamous Apple move to remove the USB adapter inside the iPhone box.
Are the iOS 18 rumours 2024 True?
If the rumors are true, it will only be revealed once we get to the mid-September week. With the way Apple is insisting on getting the public Beta testing round done and stabilising iOS 18 before iPhone 16 actually hits the ground; it certainly adds an ounce of potential to the iOS rumors 2024. Many rounds of beta have been released and people certainly have their opinions of their own, but it is sure to say, this is possibly one of the biggest Apple updates in a long while. Apple has developed its AI to a huge chunk and if all goes their way, Apple truly will stampede other phones on its way to the top.
