iOS 27 and macOS 27 Golden Gate Expand Drawing Tools to Three Apps

MacRumors · Jun 12, 2026, 4:41 PM · Also reported by 2 other sources

The upcoming i OS 27 and mac OS 27 Golden Gate updates expand drawing tools to more of Apple's built-in apps across the i Phone and Mac. In the Messages app on i OS 27, there is a new "Drawing" option in the app drawer, which can be opened by tapping the plus sign in the bottom-left corner. On older i OS versions, the Messages app once had a very basic drawing tool that was accessible by tapping a button on the keyboard in landscape orientation, but now Apple's complete set of Markup tools are available in the app. On the Mac, macOS 27 adds the Markup tools to the Notes and Freeform apps. iOS 27 and macOS 27 are currently available in developer beta. The updates are expected to be released to the general public in September.Related Roundups: iOS 27, iPadOS 27, macOS Golden GateThis article, "iOS 27 and macOS 27 Golden Gate Expand Drawing Tools to Three Apps" first appeared on MacRumors.comDiscuss this article in our forums
