Apple is set to hold its World Wide Developers Conference in June, and the company will likely announce iOS 19 then. But until Apple releases iOS 19, likely later this year, it'll keep issuing iOS 18 updates.
Apple released iOS 18 to the general public in September, a week after the company announced its new iPhone 16 lineup, Apple Watch Series 10 and more at its "Glowtime" event. Since then, Apple has released more updates that bring Apple Intelligence, such as Genmoji and Image Playground, to certain iPhones models, such as the iPhone 15 Pro, Pro Max and the iPhone 16 lineup -- including the iPhone 16E.
