Apple hosted its yearly developer gathering on Monday. In the keynote at the Worldwide Developers Conference (WWDC) 2026, the company from Cupertino presented iOS 27, macOS Golden Gate (macOS 27), and iPadOS 27. These updates include refreshed app icons and fresh AI-driven tools. The initial developer beta of iOS 27 is now available so developers can try the system ahead of a broader launch. The firm also shared the full roster of iPhone, iPad, and Mac models cleared for the newest operating systems.

Apple Removes Every Intel Mac From macOS Golden Gate Support List

Every iPhone that qualified for iOS 26 remains eligible for iOS 27. That includes the iPhone 11 lineup, introduced roughly six and a half years ago in September 2019, which can now run the updated Liquid Glass design. A new CPU Scheduler lets older iPhones handle the software efficiently by managing task priorities. Still, devices before the iPhone 15 Pro series miss out on Apple Intelligence features, matching the pattern from iOS 26.

Apple has removed several older tablets and computers from the iPadOS 27 and macOS Golden Gate lists. iPadOS 27 skips the iPad Pro 12.9-inch third generation and earlier, the iPad Mini fifth generation and earlier, plus the iPad eighth generation and earlier. On the Mac side, every Apple Silicon MacBook Air and Pro model starting from the M1 chip receives macOS Golden Gate. All pre-2020 Intel Macs are confirmed to miss the update.
