The next World Wide Developer Conference will start on Monday, June 22, 2020. Now a leaker has brought the term “iPhone OS” into play. 

New versions of iOS, tvOS, watchOS and macOS are presented at a WWDC. Last year, Apple caused a big surprise when it unveiled iPadOS 13. Although it is based on iOS, it is entirely focused on the advantages of the iPad. Now Apple could switch from iOS 14 to "iPhone OS" this year. The name is not new, however. When the first iPhone was introduced in 2007, the operating system was called "iPhone OS". The transition to iOS was only paved in 2010 with the introduction of the first iPad model. 

iOS 14 = iPhone OS 14 & iPadOS 14?

Now Jon Prosser, an Apple leaker, has a new Tweet with the content "iPhone OS". That is enough for a lot of speculation. Will Apple now return to the old name this year? Given the "iPadOS" branding, that would only be fair. So iOS 14 could specifically include "iPhone OS 14" and iPadOS 14". But what exactly will happen to the iPod touch? Will it run iPhone OS? Prosser unfortunately did not give any further information on this. So it remains to be seen what Apple will actually show us on Monday. present becomes. (Photo by rstavila / Bigstockphoto)
