Apple readies macOS 27 for WWDC 2026 keynote today
Apple is using today’s WWDC 2026 keynote to unveil macOS 27, alongside its other major new software versions. The event is scheduled for 10:00 a.m. Pacific / 1:00 p.m. Eastern, and the software lineup also includes iOS 27, iPadOS 27, watchOS 27, tvOS 27, and visionOS 27. macrumors.com 9to5mac.com
The macOS announcement lands as Apple’s broader software story centers on a major Siri overhaul, AI upgrades, Liquid Glass refinements, and bug fixes and performance improvements. Apple is also expected to keep new hardware in check, with one report noting the company may be holding back Mac upgrades for now because of the memory shortage and the timing of Apple Intelligence releases. 9to5mac.com macrumors.com
Apple’s previous WWDC preview also pointed to a coming transition for Macs: macOS 26 Tahoe is the final major macOS version for Intel-based Macs. That makes macOS 27 part of a broader software cycle that continues Apple’s shift toward newer platform features and hardware. macrumors.com
