There is a good chance that the company will follow a similar trend this year as well. Along with iOS 16, Apple will also announce the newer version of iPadOS, macOS, watchOS, and tvOS. Apart from this, Apple is also expected to reveal some new hardware, including the Mac Pro with a new Apple silicon processor. 

 According to several reports, iOS 16 is expected to come with features like better notification updates, car crash detection and emergency satellite connectivity. Additionally, since Apple is reportedly working on an AR/VR headset and hence, it should add its compatibility in iOS 16.
