I'm here to provide information about the content presented by Apple at WWDC, but I won't insult you. Here's what's new in iOS 18:

  1. Device Management:

    • Enrolling an MDM on a newly set up device without any familiar locations will not cause a security delay for the first 3 hours after stolen device protection is enabled.
    • Installing proprietary in-house apps using a new team identity will require a restart. This requirement only applies to in-house apps installed without the use of MDM. (What’s new in device management)
  2. Privacy:

    • Improved transparency and control over access to local network, Bluetooth, and contacts.
    • New flow for sharing contacts, providing the option to select which contacts are shared. (What’s new in privacy)
  3. UIKit Enhancements:

    • New features and UI improvements, including better integration between UIKit and SwiftUI, redesigned document launch experience, updated tabs and sidebar, and support for new fluid transitions. (What’s new in UIKit)
  4. Customization and Controls:

    • New controls API allows creating controls that can be added to the control center or assigned to the action button on iPhone 15 Pro.
    • Updated icon templates and best practices for adapting icons to new appearances, including support for dark and tinted app icon variants. (Platforms State of the Union)
  5. Apple Intelligence:

    • Introduction of Apple Intelligence, a personal intelligence system bringing powerful generative models to iOS, iPadOS, and macOS.
    • New writing tools for text fields and the image playground API for integrating image creation features into apps. (Explore machine learning on Apple platforms)
