In his latest edition of the Power On newsletter, Bloombergs Mark Gurman is
bringing more tidbits about iOS 16 and watchOS 9, which he calls major
upgrades. This is the first time Gurman reports about the upcoming
operating systems after Apple announced the WWDC 2022 keynote set to occur
on June 6.
Starting with iOS 16, Bloombergs journalist says hes looking for some
fairly significant enhancement across the board, including an update to
notifications and new health-tracking features.
About a redesign, Gurman doesnt think Apple will bring an end-to-end
redesign to iOS interface, even though it hasnt changed much since iOS 7.
An interesting tidbit is about a possible new iPadOS multitasking interface.
With iPadOS 15, Apple did make it easier for users to take advantage of
multitasking capabilities, but not in the way pro users were expecting.
Maybe iPadOS 16 could finally change that.
Apart from iOS 16 and iPadOS 16, Gurman says the Apple Watch may get major
upgrades to activity and health tracking. Previously, the journalist said
this would be a great year for the Apple Watch lineup, with three new
watches set to be unveiled later this year.
Last but not least, Gurman doubles down that Apple is unlikely to announce
anything about its Mixed Reality headset, although iOS 16 should be full of
it. He writes:

As far as I know, a full-blown introduction of the mixed-reality headset is
still probably out of the question in June, but I am told that beta versions
of iOS 16codenamed Sydneyare chock-full of references to the headset and
its interactions with the iPhone.
That indicates that the headset will launch during the iOS 16 cycle, which
kicks off in June and will last until iOS 17 comes in the fall of 2023. But
it may also suggest that Apple could preview some of its upcoming augmented
and virtual reality software earlier. Perhaps we could even get a peek at
the headsets rOS, short for reality operating system.
