Apple’s release of iOS/iPadOS/macOS/watchOS/tvOS 26 marks a notable shift in how the company categorizes its operating systems. By adopting a uniform versioning system, Apple is setting the stage for potential complications in the year 2100, primarily concerning compatibility and legacy systems.
The move to synchronize the OS numbering across devices simplifies user experience but also raises concerns about support and updates for older hardware. As technology evolves, this approach could complicate the migration of applications and services, particularly as new features are introduced and older systems may not support them. Stakeholders should prepare for the long-term implications of this streamlined numbering system, especially in terms of software development and user adoption.
