![]() ![]() ![]() It will be available on Apple’s YouTube channel, its event website, and within its Event and Developer apps. For this piece, I’ve not considered other currently mooted changes - including improvements in iOS 16, health features, improvements in Apple Watch, or claims that Mac System Preferences will become Settings. And more…Īdditional highlights for developers? Swift 6.0 and additional measures to protect privacy and security across the Apple ecosystem, improvements to Apple’s offer to advertisers and additions to iCloud+. While I don’t expect it to capitulate to some of the pressures it faces (it won’t suddenly embrace sideloading), I do hope it will share its vision for the next App Store decade with developers at the event. The best forum for this leadership will be WWDC. The future of the App StoreĪpple’s decision to publish a report concerning its fraud prevention work at the App Store and the company’s continued work to tweak the deals means it knows it must show leadership when it comes to its plans for the App Store. I also imagine we’ll see improvements in Apple Device Manager to make it easier to manage shared devices. This should make the iPad an even more credible alternative to a Mac (or PC), which will likely give many businesses additional pause for thought as they seek to upgrade legacy equipment. The iPad thingĪs mentioned above and recently here, Apple is expected to announce improved multitasking features in iPadOS 16. I’m also curious to see if it offers a preview developer’s kit to help build apps now for its future glasses, even if we don’t actually get to see them. I think Apple may work to slightly underplay its bid here. While we probably won’t see anything more than a glimpse (if that) of the Apple Glass AR product the company apparently showed directors this year, Apple seems likely to share new AR-focused features developers can exploit to build AR content, possibly dubbed ‘realityOS.’ I imagine part of this will be about additional ways to apply machine vision intelligence in daily life, along with optimizations in Siri to turn it into a contextually aware predictive search engine, supporting you, your customers, and your staff with information they need for the task at hand. The company’s seeming interest in sports entertainment will add an additional dimension to this offer. Services such as Music, TV, Fitness, and Arcade represent how deep a bench Apple already has in terms of delivering consumer experiences via new platforms. Integration between iCloud and third-party online document storage services should also improve, given that all have now moved away from kexts. Single Sign On may be improved and, along with improved windowing on the Apple tablet, there have got to be some developers hoping Xcode will become an iPad app. We know Apple is paying increasing amounts of attention to the enterprise market, which means we may see additional improvements made to the MDM APIs it provides, including further support to enable authentication from Google and Microsoft. The company purchased Fleetsmith in 2020 and leveraged those technologies in Apple Business Essentials. Mobile Device ManagementĪpple builds the API’s third-party MDM companies exploit to manage Apple devices in the enterprise and education. Other reported potential products include a new MacBook Air.WWDC is not a hardware event, but there is a chance we’ll meet the first M2 or last to be upgraded M1-based Mac Pro. Reports also indicate that Apple has a 27-inch mini-LED display in the works, however, it is unclear whether this is a standalone display that could complement the Pro Display XDR and the Studio Display, or if this is the aforementioned iMac. If that's the case, WWDC could be the perfect backdrop to announce either or both of those products. ![]() It may well be that the all-online format is not conducive to getting the press hands-on with devices (for obvious reasons), however, Apple has held a number of successful online events for products including the iPhone 13, and the iPhone SE in March.Īpple reportedly has a new iMac Pro and a new Mac Pro in the works, both expected to get a full refresh with Apple silicon at the core. Apple has not announced hardware at WWDC since the Mac Pro debuted in 2019. ![]()
