Welcome to 9 to 5 Mac Daily for Monday, May 11th, 2026.

I'm your host, Chance Miller.

We are sponsored this week by Bitwarden.

Leading off today, we're less than a month away from Apple announcing iOS 27 at WWDC,

and a new report today corroborates that iOS 27 is adding a new feature to Safari to help you manage your tabs and stay organized.

Bloomberg's Mark German reports that the update will add a new organized tabs feature in Safari, located in the center-top button where you can currently switch between tab groups.

In this menu, users can choose the

organized tabs option and set whether they want their tabs to be grouped automatically. When you

select the automatic option, iOS 27 says that tabs will group into topics as you browse. The feature

isn't labeled as an Apple intelligence enhancement, but it's clearly going

to use some form of AI to work. This feature was first referenced in a code leak last month,

and German's reporting adds further corroboration that it is indeed in the works for iOS 27.

iOS 27 will focus largely on a combination of stability, improvements, and new AI

features.

There are, however, a handful of other features that have leaked outside of those two categories.

For example, Apple is reportedly adding a new Create a Pass feature to convert physical

passes to digital ones in Apple Wallet. We expect more

leaks to emerge in the weeks leading up to WWDC, which kicks off on June 8th. Next up today,

MacOS 27 is also set to be announced at WWDC, and Bloomberg reports that Apple is preparing

to roll out a quote-unquote slight redesign for the next version of the Mac software.

The update will feature a refinement of the liquid glass design language introduced last year,

cleaning up some of the rough edges seen in the Tahoe implementation of the design.
