Four generation of Apple watches have been revealed as well as released yearly. Along with release of the watches every year, Apple also provides an upgrade to the watchOS operating system which is used by the watch in order for it to function effectively.

Based on the operating system, iOS, as well as sharing its features, watchOS is the operating system designed and developed by Apple to be used in the smart watches. Various different versions of the operating system have been released alongside the watches which ensure a proper functioning of the watches.

The latest version of the watch operating system, watchOS 5, gradually changes and improves the overall performance of the watches. However, the development of the First Generation of the watches have been discontinued. Release of different version of the watchOS have increased the overall performance of the watches along with introducing new stock applications for the watches. The latest version of the watchOS namely watchOS 5 reportedly added various third-party features as well as the new workout as well as a new “Walkie-Talkie” feature.

Along with the start of the new year, various rumors are surrounded on the next version of the watch operating system. The next version of the operating system is supposedly going to be named as watchOS 6. According to rumours, during the WWDC event held in June, 2019 Apple would bring along with itself reveal of various new Apple products along with some exciting technologies. The event is also rumored to reveal the next version of the watch operating system as well as the next generation of watch.

Apple WatchOS 6 Release Date Pattern Analysis

Let us predict the release date of watchOS 6 based on the analysis of the release of previous versions of the operating system.

watchOS version	Release Date
watchOS 1	April 24, 2015
watchOS 2	September 21, 2015
watchOS 3	September 13, 2016
watchOS 4	September 19, 2017

Based on the analysis of the above table, the introduction of the first Apple Watch along with its first operating system which led to further release on April 24, 2015. The second version of the watchOS was released on September 21, 2015. Similarly different versions of the operating system were released yearly similar to the iOS 13 release pattern which would allow to further predict the release of the next version of the operating system sometime around in Mid September. Along with the reveal taking place at WWDC event, the release would take place in September.

Apple WatchOS 6 Probable Features & Wishlist

Along with the prediction of the release date, various rumors regarding the features of the watchOS 6 are spreading around the community resulting in the buzz being generated in the Apple Community. The features such as multi-user competitions, always-on display, face-ID, sleep tracking along with the some new Apple watch apps are being considered to release along with the new version of the operating system.

Always-on display : One of the most requested features demanded by the Apple watch users , along with the release of the release of watchOS, the always-on display would be effective. Lack of feature of always-on display was followed by Apple in order to ensure a longer battery life as well as providing a good performance. However, the users in the Apple community want the option for the display to always stay on to be put into effect along with the release of the new operating system namely, watchOS 6.
Face ID : The feature of digital crown dials as well as Apple Pencil compatibility or getting a face ID on every device except iPhone is the dream of every Apple user. Hence, people want the introduction of the concept of Face ID in the latest version of the watches or the watch operating system. However, with the introduction of this feature in the 2018 iPad Pro Models turning out to be really buggy as well as technically harassing, it would be really difficult for the Face ID to be implemented in the new generation of Apple watches or the new Apple watch operating system.
Sleep Tracking : The ability of the Apple Smart Watches to monitor the activities of the users is really fascinating. It monitors the performance as well as health of the user which in turn allows the user to take into consideration the fitness of the body. This is a really effective feature for health conscious people. However, watchOS needs to introduce the feature of sleep tracking which would allow the watch to judge when the user wakes up or when the user goes to sleep which would further contribute in maintaining health of the user.
New Watch Apps : Third party apps growth is consistent in the community, however, the applications released by Apple are really effective in terms of performance. Various apps would be released by Apple which would generate a lot of buzz among the community
Randomized Watch Faces : Best fun part about the Apple watches is the Randomized Toy Story animated watch faces which is really fun for the users. Hence, various different watch faces would be introduced along with the release of the new watchOS 6.

These features are all rumored to be true when considering the next watch operating system, watchOS 6 which is supposed to be released sometime around September, 2019.

iOS 13 Release Date: Predicting the Arrival of the Next Generation Apple OS

iOS 13 Release Date: Apple has just released iOS 12 alongside a slew of new flagship devices like iPhone XS, iPhone XS max and iPhone XR. This year, Apple decided to focus more in bringing performance upgrades and stability improvements rather than rolling out any radical changes to the operating system itself. While it is still early days, rumors have already started doing the rounds that Apple will be bringing a host of radical changes with iOS 13 as these features didn’t release this year. This brings us to the obvious questions surrounding the iOS 13 release date and what to expect from the next iteration of Apple’s flagship OS.

Since the iOS is the most successful operation system just behind Android, people usually put high expectations on it each year. Since 2007, when it was first released to power the first generation Apple iPhone, the OS has managed to become a very successful operating system for smartphones and have slowly extended its support to other Apple devices as well like iPad and iPod Touch. Current statistics tell us that the Apple App store currently has over 2.5 million applications and these have been downloaded for over 130 billion times. This massive number clearly shows the popularity of the operating system and the wide range of users.

iOS 13 Release Date: When Can We Expect it?

Coming to the iOS 13 release date, Apple has been following a pattern since the last few years and we doubt they would break it this time. If we take a closer look at the release pattern of iOS 12, we can see that Apple provided the first preview of the current generation OS on June 4, 2018 which was the opening day of the keynote Worldwide Developers Conference (WWDC) 2018. It was followed by several beta releases over the next few months with the final stable version releasing on September 17, 2018 in most countries. Here is a table showing you the release pattern of all iOS versions over the years.

iPhone OS 1: Released June 29, 2007

iPhone OS 2: Released July 11, 2008

iPhone OS 3: Released June 17, 2009

iOS 4: Released- June 21, 2010

iOS 5: Announced- June 6, 2011; Released- October 12, 2011

iOS 6: Announced- June 11, 2012; Released- September 19, 2012

iOS 7: Announced- June 10, 2013; Released- September 18, 2013

iOS 8: Announced- June 2, 2014; Released- September 17, 2014

iOS 9: Announced- June 8, 2015; Released- September 16, 2015

iOS 10: Announced- June 13, 2016; Released- September 13, 2017

iOS 11: Announced- June 5, 2017; Released-September 19, 2017

iOS 12: Announced- June 4, 2018; Released- September 17, 2018

We can expect the same to happen next year with Apple providing the first preview of iOS 13 beta in June during the keynote WWDC 2019 event. It is likely to be followed by several beta releases in the next two months with the final stable version getting released in the first or second week of September 2019. We are pretty sure that Apple will stick to this routine it has been following since 2011.

Don’t forget to check iOS 13 Compatibility List, which we’ve made exclusively for our readers. You can also visit this site to know about the upcoming iOS 14 release date.

Wrap Up

Predicting the iOS 13 release date has been made easy by the fact that Apple has been steadily following a routine since 2011 when iOS 6 was released. Over the years, Apple has not deviated from this routine so we are confident that the final stable version of iOS 13 will see the light of the day in September 2019.
