  • Apple is reportedly planning a major software overhaul later this year.
  • The changes are believed to bring a more uniform software experience across Apple’s devices.
  • Android should rightfully be concerned because the changes could further solidify Apple’s dominance in user experience and ecosystem integration.

One of the biggest reasons Apple users remain loyal to the brand is its software experience. Over the years, Apple has maintained a consistent and reliable interface on all its devices — be it iOS on iPhones, iPadOS on tablets, watchOS on Apple Watches, or macOS on computers. Another key advantage Apple has is its seamless ecosystem functionality, something Android has long struggled with and is only now beginning to improve. Now, Apple appears to be getting ready to further challenge Android with a major software overhaul.
