When unveiling the WWDC 2025 dates today, Apple said that it will announce this year’s Swift Student Challenge Winners on Thursday, March 27.

The Swift Student Challenge tasks students with creating an innovative coding project using Swift Playground or Xcode. This year’s event began on February 3, and Apple accepted submissions for a three-week period before judging began.

Apple plans to select 350 winners for the 2025 challenge, all of whom will be eligible to attend the June 9 Special Event for WWDC at the Apple Park campus in Cupertino, California. Winners will need to enter a lottery process to get a chance to attend.

Apple will also choose 50 Distinguished Winners that will be recognized for “outstanding submissions.” Distinguished Winners will be invited to Cupertino for a three-day experience that will include the Special Event keynote viewing along with other activities, and these winners will not need to enter the lottery to visit ‌Apple Park‌.

Students who entered the challenge can expect to receive an email notifying them about their status later this week.

Qualcomm went from Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 to Snapdragon 8 Elite last year, and so, for a long time we’ve assumed that the successor to the Snapdragon 8s Gen 3 would be the Snapdragon 8s Elite. However, according to a new rumor out of China, this won’t be the case. There will in fact be just one Elite – at least until the 8 Elite’s successor appears in October or thereabouts. Better put – there will only be one Elite line, the truly flagship one. An upper-midrange chip like the next 8s isn’t worthy of the Elite designation in Qualcomm’s view, if this rumor pans out, of course. So,…

Leaker Jon Prosser today shared a mockup of what he says the Messages app will look like in iOS 19, demoing an interface with rounded, translucent bubble-shaped navigation buttons at the top and softer, rounder corners for the keyboard and word suggestions.

The return button, a button for going back to the Messages list, and the FaceTime button have a deeper blue shade that has a bit of a glow about it, but Prosser’s mockup does not show fundamental changes to the layout. The iMessage demonstration is at 42:50 in the video below, and it lasts for about a minute.

Prosser previously showed off a mockup of what the ‌iOS 19‌ Camera app supposedly looks like, with the updated design featuring visionOS-like translucency for the tool bar that gives more visibility to the underlying photo.

When sharing the Camera app mockup, Prosser said that he based it on the actual ‌iOS 19‌ Camera app that he obtained from unnamed sources. He recreated the design rather than showing actual screenshots, and it appears that’s what’s been done here as well. Prosser noted that the Messages app and the Home Screen have not seen significant redesigns in ‌iOS 19‌, despite rumors that we’re going to see the biggest redesign since iOS 7.

Prosser says that he has an ‌iOS 19‌ video coming tomorrow, where he will share additional info on ‌iOS 19‌’s design.

‌iOS 19‌, iPadOS 19, and macOS Sequoia 16 are rumored to be getting a complete design overhaul, with Apple refreshing menus, system buttons, apps, icons, and more. Apple plans to focus on translucency and rounded buttons, design elements that are taken from visionOS. According to Bloomberg‘s Mark Gurman, the update will “fundamentally change” the look of each operating system while also introducing a more consistent cross-platform experience.
