> the company is working to simplify the way users navigate and control their devices.. The design is loosely based on the Vision Pro’s software.. will mark the most significant upgrade to the Mac since the Big Sur operating system in 2020.. For the iPhone, it will be the biggest revamp since iOS 7 in 2013... 2 billion devices in use around the world.. when Apple revamped its Photos app last year, legions of users complained. With the entire operating systems changing, the stakes are much higher.
Vision Pro sold less than 500K devices and v2 was cancelled. There have been reports of iOS/macOS instability, possibly due to annual feature churn consuming engineering resources. Apple Intelligence failed to meet iOS 18.4 ship target and Siri may need to be rewritten with relaunch in 2026-2027. Siri shortcomings have delayed the 2025 launch of smart home tablet and iPad-on-robot-arm.
Do the above starting conditions support once-a-decade user interface and workflow productivity changes for 2B people, based on a failed launch with 0.025% of customers?
