The first version of iOS 18 would be complete, but full of bugs. The generally knowledgeable Mark Gurman asserts that the new version of the Cupertino system would have been completed last month. However, the bugs would be numerous: Apple would have completely paused the development of its operating systems for a week while it eliminated the biggest glitches.

Rather than adding new features, developers working on iOS, macOS and others would therefore have been instructed to correct problems and improve overall performance. This break would have been announced to employees last week, and Bloomberg claims that such a maneuver is something rare at Apple.
The first version of iOS/iPadOS 18 would be dubbed “Crystal” internally, while macOS 15 would have been dubbed “Glow.” For its part, watchOS 11 would be called “Moonstone” for the moment. This first batch would be called “M1” to symbolize a major stage of development.
The development of the second iteration “M2” would logically have been postponed, as would the work on iOS 17.4, which should be released “ around next March “. visionOS would also be impacted, without this changing anything on the Vision Pro release date.
Some rumors are circulating regarding Cupertino’s future systems. Bloomberg sees the arrival of major new features linked to AI, which should notably serve as a driving force for a massive overhaul of Siri. Generative artificial intelligence could also emerge in Xcode, Apple Music or even the iWork suite.
