Apple develops a whole new operating system called “charismatic”, according to Bloombergis Mark Gurman.
This is probably the long -term “homeos” operating system of Apple.
In a report this week, Gurman said that the two Apple Smart Home Hubs in 2026 and the table robot in 2027 will execute the new operating system. He said that the software platform will mix tvos and watchos elements. For example, he expects there to be a hexagonal grid of applications, just like on the Apple Watch.
The platform is largely rotating around clock faces and widgets, and it will have multi-user support, Gurman said. Users will mainly interact with him using SIRI vocal commands, but Touch will also be an option, he said. Some of Apple’s preinstalled applications will apparently include the calendar, camera, music, reminders and notes.
Here is what he said about the multi-user support:
The devices are intended to be easily shared: they include a front camera that can scan users’ faces when they walk towards it, then automatically modify the layout, functionality and content of this person’s preferences.
We should know more about the new operating system in the coming months.
