Apple didn’t show everything at WWDC 2026. While the company focused on its major iOS 27 announcements during the conference, Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman reported that three additional features are still in the works for this fall’s release.
The unrevealed features include a new Apple Watch face, a customizable Camera app for iPhone, and expanded third-party chatbot integration with Siri. Some of these features already exist in the current iOS 27 developer beta, though Gurman notes it’s unclear why Apple chose not to highlight them during its keynote presentation.
The timing of these features appears tied to Apple’s traditional fall hardware refresh cycle. The new watch face will likely coincide with Apple’s expected smartwatch updates later this year. Previous reports suggest this face could be a simplified version of the Modular Ultra design that’s currently exclusive to the Apple Watch Ultra, adapted for the broader Apple Watch lineup.
The Camera app redesign represents a significant departure from Apple’s typically rigid interface approach. This feature would allow users to customize which camera functions appear in the app and determine their placement. Gurman expects this updated Camera app to debut alongside the rumored iPhone 18 Pro announcement, though it’s notably absent from the current iOS 27 developer beta.
Perhaps most interesting is the expansion of third-party AI integration within Siri. While Apple Intelligence dominated much of the WWDC discussion, Apple is simultaneously developing broader chatbot support that would let users switch between different AI models more easily. The current iOS 27 beta only supports switching between Siri and ChatGPT, but Gurman indicates that options like Google’s Gemini and Anthropic’s Claude will join the roster.
This move signals Apple’s recognition that users want choice in their AI assistants, even as the company promotes its own Apple Intelligence platform. Rather than forcing users into a single ecosystem, Apple appears willing to position Siri as more of a gateway to multiple AI services.
The staggered release of these features also reflects Apple’s broader strategy of maintaining momentum throughout the year rather than front-loading all announcements at WWDC. By holding back certain capabilities, Apple can generate additional interest when new hardware launches in the fall, creating multiple news cycles around iOS 27 rather than a single summer announcement.
