iOS 19 Leak: First Look at Alleged VisionOS Inspired Redesign [Video]

A new video from leaker Jon Prosser allegedly offers a first look at the design of Apple's upcoming iOS 19 software update. Posted on the Front Page Tech YouTube channel, the video claims to reveal a significant visual overhaul inspired by visionOS, based on information from unnamed sources. Prosser, whose track record on Apple leaks has been inconsistent, cautions that the footage recreates what he was shown rather than displaying official material, citing identifiers that could expose leakers.

Earlier today, Apple announced that its Worldwide Developers Conference (WWDC) will take place June 9-13, 2025. The company is widely expected to debut iOS 19, iPadOS 19, and macOS 16 at the event. According to Prosser, the update brings a glossy, modern aesthetic with fluid animations across the system. He first hinted at this redesign over a month ago with a preview of a revamped Camera app, which he says adopts Vision OS-style elements. The latest video expands on that, showcasing updates to the lock screen notifications, settings menus, and native apps like Music, TV, and Calendar.

Prosser highlights a consistent theme of rounded edges and a glassy look, particularly in dark mode, which dominated what he viewed. The keyboard reportedly gets a visual refresh too, maintaining its familiar layout but with a floating visionOS-inspired design. He notes no major functional changes or new AI features were evident in what he saw, focusing instead on the stylistic shift.


The video also touches on the home screen, addressing speculation about round icons. Prosser says the version he saw retains the current icon shape, though he acknowledges the design remains unfinished. He points to existing Apple apps like Sports and the recently released Invites as early signs of this aesthetic, suggesting the redesign was delayed from 2024 due to the company's focus on Apple Intelligence.

Notably, the leak aligns with a report from Bloomberg's Mark Gurman, who recently called iOS 19 one of the biggest redesigns in iOS history. Still, these details remain unconfirmed until Apple's official reveal.
