Apple is set to introduce a redesigned multitasking interface for iPad at WWDC 2022, according to a new Bloomberg report.

The iPad’s next major software update, iPadOS 16, will have a redesigned multitasking interface that makes it easier to see what apps are open and switch between tasks, said the people, who asked not to be identified because the changes aren’t yet public. It also will let users resize app windows and offer new ways for users to handle multiple apps at once.

The update will reportedly be one of the biggest upgrades announced at the event. There will also be software updates for iPhone, Apple Watch, Apple TV, and Mac.

For the iPhone, Apple will purportedly introduce a new lock screen with widgets, a refreshed Health app, and new audio and social networking features in Messages.

watchOS is set to get more watch faces, updates to fitness tracking, system navigation, and default apps. A new low power mode could add more capabilities than just viewing the time. Changes for macOS include a revamp to System Preferences.

Developer betas are expected next week; however, the first public betas aren't likely to arrive until July.
