Apple users are enjoying new features like Writing Tools, Genmoji, and Image Playground introduced with iOS 18. Rumors suggest that the next OS release may be named iOS 26 and could bring a visual redesign. While Apple's adoption rates remain high, the rollout of Android 15 has been slower, possibly due to the diversity of devices and skins in the Android market.
