Apple's WWDC

Knock knock. Yup, its Tim Cook at the Door! For those who haven't noticed yet but the day has come for all the Developers and Apple enthusiasts. Well, The Worldwide developers' conference is held annually by Apple in San Jose California.

Apple WWDC annual Worldwide Developers Conference keynote is happening on Monday, June 22nd, but in a very different form than usual, due to the COVID-19 pandemic.



The show must go on, so Apple will be presenting the entire conference in a new, digital-only format. The company is still expected to unveil the first look at the future of iOS, macOS, watchOS, and tvOS — the various suites of software that power all of Apple’s hardware. THE FIRST LOOK AT THE NEXT GENERATION OF APPLE’S SOFTWARE 

APPLE  may also be making an even bigger announcement than just the annual software updates: Apple is reportedly going to be using WWDC to announce a shift from Intel-based processors to custom-designed ARM chips for its Mac desktops and laptops. This would be a fundamental shift for Apple’s computer products as a whole.

IOS 14

The annual iOS update is, as usual, expected to be one of Apple’s main focuses this year, though a series of leaks — thanks to an early version of the software that made it out into the world earlier this year — have given a bit more of a preview than usual regarding what to expect.

Apple seems to be settling into a tick-tock development cadence with its iOS updates: the notoriously buggy iOS 13 followed the rock-solid iOS 12, which in turn fixed the problematic iOS 11. As such, iOS 14 is reportedly set to focus on performance and stability rather than adding new features. 

There are rumors that Apple might be making the first substantial changes to the iOS home screen, the biggest since the company first added folders and custom wallpapers with iOS 4. The first major addition is said to be a new list view which, according to 9to5Mac, will offer an Android-esque view of all the apps on your device with a variety of sorting options — including Siri's suggestions. iOS 14 is also rumored to bring new wallpaper settings that will loop in third-party apps for the first time.

Get ready maybe the Iconic phrase “ONE MORE THING’” will take us by surprise in this keynote!
