iOS 10 release date, news

Apple's iOS 10 update is an iPhone and iPad milestone

      iOS 10 is now expected to make its debut next month at the company's WWDC keynote with new features for Siri, HomeKit and Apple Music. Here's the latest news.

Apple's iOS 10 update is the milestone software version for the iPhone and iPad, and its release date is currently one months away, according to the company's routine schedule.

Downloading the iOS 10 beta this summer and the final release a few weeks later won't end up being a big scheduling surprise, but where Apple takes the mobile operating system is still a mystery.

Apple is preparing the redesigned iPhone 7, according to the latest leaks, and that means the interface may take on a few surprises. Here's what we've heard and want.

iOS 10 release date

Apple is reportedly testing iOS 10 right now, meaning it's on track for another June release date at the company's Worldwide Developers Conference event, WWDC 2016.

Siri let us know that the keynote date is June 13. That's when official iOS 10 announcement will happen with an introduction by Craig Federighi, Apple's senior vice president of software engineering.

The iOS 10 beta should be available to developers immediately, while a public beta is probably launching in July, just as it did with iOS 9. After all, last year's public beta was a big success for Apple judging from the smoother sailing of iOS 9, and it continues to be with surprise iOS 9.3 features.

If you decide to wait for the final version of iOS 10, it'll take a while longer due to additional bug testing by developers and faithful Apple fan trying out the beta. A stable version of iOS 10 should launch alongside the new iPhone 7 in September.
