Apple's annual Worldwide Developers Conference is expected to bring new software features for iPhones, iPads, Apple Watches and more.

Whenever Apple's developers work in secret, he says, they always talk about this moment, when we get the reveal. "When that platform really comes to life is when it's in your hands." WWDC begins with Tim Cook on stage, saying he's so happy to have developers here at Apple Park. "We've got an amazing day planned for you."

Live video and updates from Apple's WWDC 2022 keynote address. We're on the scene at the company's headquarters in Cupertino, California.

Cook, in the pre-taped video, says there are now 34 million Apple developers globally. I imagine Apple pre-taped this in case Covid forced changes to the in-person event. If you are confused at Lauren's obsession, too, here's her great story about Away Messages from last week.

We have gone through the settings for the most popular (and problematic) services to give you recommendations. But perhaps the most curious twist to the Apple watch experience is that you might not need to own one to get a taste. Data and Privacy: A guide to every privacy setting you should change now. Once WatchOS 9 arrives, for example, wearers will be able to take a closer look at the quality of their sleep. Notifications from apps will also now roll in from the bottom of the screen, so they won’t cover up the photo and font you picked out for your new custom lock screen. Meanwhile, Apple watch owners concerned about cardiac health will be able to see how much time their hearts spend in beating abnormally — known as “AFib,” or atrial fibrillation.

Apple's WWDC keynote starts at 1PM ET / 10AM PT on June 6th, 2022, and we'll be live blogging the event from on the ground in Cupertino, California.

Apple is one of the few companies left that still makes splashy annual software announcements, rather than doling out features as they’re ready, so WWDC tends to always be a news-filled event. We’ll be live blogging from Apple Park in Cupertino as the day unfolds, so come join us to see what Apple’s been up to. WWDC is one of Apple’s biggest events of the year, as the world’s largest company tells developers, press, and the world about its latest software.

Apple WWDC 2022 Keynote Live Blog: iOS 16 Reveals, M1 Upgrades and More. Apple's annual Worldwide Developers Conference is kicking off with new feature reveals for iOS 16 and more news on the iPhone, iPad, Mac and more is expected.

You can drag and drop across displays as well. You can see recently used apps on the screen, and you can format the layout however you want -- even with overlapping windows. With Stage Manager, you can resize windows, and the dock is visible.

iPhone owners will get the first glimpse of how their devices will change during Apple's keynote Monday at the Worldwide Developers Conference.

The most notable rumored update Apple could reveal is iOS 16 supporting an always-on display, which could provide basic information to users without having to wake the device. Visual lookup will not only spot items in an image and allow you to search them, but you can grab specific elements in the photo and paste them into a message. Notifications will stream from the bottom of the screen with iOS 16, and users can even hide them completely. Apple is upgrading to M2 chips, the latest version of the chips which will run future Mac computers. The app can manage access to your device, disable location sharing, or set up an emergency reset of your phone. Ventura, the name of the new macOS, will include Stage Manager, a feature which will let Mac users focus on the app they're using without the clutter. Apple is introducing some updates to the in-car system CarPlay. Among them: upgraded odometers with an Apple aesthetic, widgets providing trip information, navigation tools and weather details. Passkeys can't be leaked or compromised, said Apple. With a Passkey, you can sign up or log in to a service just using the iPhone. Let's say you start a call on the iPhone. If you're near a Mac, it will alert you asking whether you want to continue your call on the Mac. Another incredible feature: the ability to use your iPhone as a really fancy webcam. It's now the iPad's turn, which is also going to get a big update this fall. There will be a new display scaling setting, to adjust the size of an app's view when multitasking or using the split screen feature. All the operating systems will become available to users this fall.

In addition to confirming the keynote date and time, Apple has shared the full WWDC 2022... WWDC is always an exciting week for both developers and Apple fans. Apple's annual developers conference will be a (mostly) online affair for the third consecutive year, with Apple expected to unveil its latest software, including iOS 16, iPadOS 16, macOS 13, watchOS 9, and tvOS 16. A redesigned MacBook Air tops the list of potential new hardware, but supply chain issues have raised uncertainty about whether it's ready to go. Highlights from the event and separate news stories regarding today's announcements will go out through our @MacRumors account.

Apple unveiled iOS 16, the new M2 chip, a new MacBook Air, a 13-inch MacBook Pro and more.

Apple invited some media and developers to its headquarters in Cupertino, California, to watch the keynote. The Apple Store website is down, which suggests that Apple might also announce new products during the WWDC 2022 event. But the event is also a homecoming for many Apple employees who have been working remotely for the past two years because of the pandemic. Apple is working with companies like Ford, Nissan and more to support the next generation of CarPlay and said the next vehicles that support it will start to be announced late next year. They're the folks who build apps for the Mac, iPhone, iPad, Watch and TV. This is usually when Apple unveils new tools for them, and big new updates for the iPhone, iPad and other platforms. People are starting to make their way to their seats ahead of the keynote. He spoke briefly and turned it over to software chief Craig Federighi, who led the crowd in a cheer of "go developers!" It's a brand new look that allows users to customize the lock screen with widgets -- which have already been available on the home screen -- by pressing and holding. As part of the update, Apple is rolling out a new Siri user interface and new banner notifications. Apple has been rumored to get into the buy now, pay later space for about a year now. Users will also be able to track and manage their medications, vitamins and supplements with the Health app. Apple's WWDC is the company's biggest Apple software announcement of the year.

There’s also a new feature called Safety Check, which is aimed to protect people in abusive situations. There’s also a “live activities” feature to display notifications associated with an event like an Uber ride or sporting event in a single tile. Up to six users can access a shared library. SharePlay is also coming to messages. Different focus modes can also be assigned to different lock screens. Apple’s powerful Live Text feature will be coming to video.

A new medications app will let users track, manage and understand the medications people take and notifies users when to take them. And the software will offer more personalized wallpapers for the lock screen and the ability to shuffle options throughout the day. In addition, enhanced sleep tracking will monitor when a user goes in and out of light and deep sleep. And a tool called Passkeys is intended to replace passwords by using Touch ID or Face ID to authenticate across apps and devices. Meanwhile, iOS users in the US will be able to spread payments over 8 weeks on Apple Pay, similar to a "buy now, pay later" service. Apple also teased several new options to better customize the lock screen and improve the notifications experience.

Like the new MacBook Air, the 13-inch MacBook Pro is also getting an M2 upgrade. The new Pay Later feature is coming to Apple Pay with iOS 16. Apple says the new M2 chip delivers an 18 percent performance upgrade when compared to the M1. Apple announced a major update to CarPlay that allows for deeper integration with your vehicle. Apple is also introducing the ability to mark a message as unread so you can easily find it later. Apple is also pushing updates to notifications and its Focus feature.

MacBook Air: Mark Gurman and Ming-Chi Kuo agree that Apple is planning to launch a redesigned MacBook Air at WWDC. However, it might not come in the variety of colors we’ve been expecting. 1:21pm: Apple Tap to Pay coming this month.

Apple debuts its new operating systems, silicon and laptops, plus updates to platforms such as CarPlay and SharePlay.

On M1-based iPads, you'll be able to increase the display's pixel density to fit more on the screen and use virtual memory. Resident Evil Village and No Man's Sky are getting ported to the Mac for the first time; Resident Evil Village is coming later this year. It will support a split view for straight ahead and desktop views. Like Ventura, iPadOS gets the new Metal API update for gaming, plus it gets background downloading. It finally supports fast-charging, and the new adapter has a second USB-C port. A 1080p webcam brings it up to parity with its siblings, along with a quad-speaker system (with Spatial Audio support) and three-mic array. For the first time in ages, Apple has redesigned the Air, and it's with the M2 chip in mind. Apple News is getting expanded sports coverage in the US, UK, Canada and Australia. TV Plus gets Family Sharing for up to five members, with parental controls for apps, movies, books and music. Read on for the highlights and links to all our stories. It finally gets an upgrade to a 13.6-inch Liquid Retina display, with 500 nits max brightness and P3 gamut. Similarly, Live Text (Apple's answer to Google Lens) expands to video, letting you pause on any frame and interact or grab text from the video. SharePlay is improved for easier sharing within FaceTime and Messages. Dictation blends with text and touch on the fly so you can use any input type at any time.

There are a lot of WWDC 2022 announcements from Apple, but here are the 5 most important things we learned.

The heart of the iPhone is its operating system, and so anything that is updated is a big deal. One of the ways health is being addressed is with the existing ECG app. Apple is often criticized for its lack of user-controllable features, but with its new lock screen, it is providing more personalization than ever before. If you have a family iCloud account setup, the new shared iCloud photo library will be a big deal. But with this latest software update, that possibility is at least easier to conceive of than it has been in the past. This year iOS 16 is getting several notable enhancements coming in the form of personalization and sharing. The new MacBook Air is hard to ignore with its all-new design—and the addition of its Starlight and Midnight colors. The real story of this new MacBook Air is its M2 processor. The new MacBook Air will be available in July, starting at $1,199. Stage Manager with multitasking improvements will go a long way in letting people use the device for simple or advanced tasks. Of course, another notable announcement was the new MacBook Air laptop that comes in fresh, new Starlight and Midnight colors. The new operating systems for your Apple devices won't officially ship until the fall, but there's still plenty to glean from what Apple is sharing today.

From hoodies to heels, here are some of the best outfits we saw on Apple employees at WWDC 2022.

Federighi gets docked half a point for his sneakers which, while sharp, are more of a cream than the blinding white this outfit calls for, but he earns it back for his basketball prop work. I really wish he would have gone with a lighter, grey-toned shirt as a base, but I love the matching glasses and bomber. I honestly doubt Cook dressed himself today (the man makes $92 million a year, he should be delegating his shopping) so I'd really like to extend my congratulations to his stylist. We catch a glimpse of Ardill mid jump squat when SVP of Software Engineering Craig Federighi bursts in on one of his sessions. We are ranking this for the color story alone. Apple Daddy Craig Federighi

The WWDC 2022 keynote unveiled iOS 16, iPadOS 16, watchOS 9, macOS Ventura, and the new MacBook Air. Apple has released a video that recaps the first day of the ...

Apple is making the entire conference available for free online, so developers and the generally curious can continue to tune in to all kinds of sessions for the rest of the week. There are still plenty of days left for WWDC 2022, with Apple set to host four more days of developer sessions both in-person. It also rolled out a slew of new developer tools, technologies, and APIs.

The latest MacBook Air comes with Apple's new M2 processor and major design improvements. Pre-orders are not live yet, but prices start at $1199.

Apple is also introducing the MacBook Air to MagSafe power this generation, freeing up its two Thunderbolt 4 ports. Coupled with webcam improvements in the upcoming macOS Ventura, the MacBook Air will likely become a leading work from home device. Apple took this opportunity to revisit the design of its leading laptop, moving away from the classic wedge shape to a flatter, more uniform chassis. If you buy them, we may get a small share of the revenue from the sale from our partners. This brand-new processor from Apple brings marked improvements to the company's leading piece of silicon hardware. This doesn't account for the relative performance between these two laptops, but it puts Apple and Microsoft's pricing differences into plain view.

Today at WWDC Apple announced a new 13-inch MacBook Pro with the new M2 processor and up to 24GB of RAM.

The $1,299 starting price will get you the M2-powered MacBook Pro with 8GB of RAM and a 256GB SSD. Let's be honest, nobody is going to do that, so I went to Apple's MBP M2 page (opens in new tab) and pimped my dream 13-inch MBP M2 out. The latest MacBook Pro will also feature an FHD 1080p webcam which is a nice improvement. The new MacBook Pro with an M2 processor promises improved performance from its 8-core CPU and 10-core GPU. I rather not discuss Apple's promised percentages of improved performance until our crack team of testers gets their hands on the review units.

From the debut of the next-generation CarPlay to the ability to use your iPhone as a Mac webcam, these are the most unexpected announcements at Apple's WWDC ...

You will, of course, need to update your iPhone to iOS 16 and Mac to the latest macOS Ventura to turn an iPhone into a webcam. A chunkier, squared-off look, a fanless body, a new 13.6-inch Liquid Retina Display and the second-generation M2 chip makes the new MacBook Air the coolest notebook in town. While we were expecting the iPadOS to get a big update, we weren’t aware that Apple was quietly developing a whiteboard app. The level of customisation features and the way you control your radio, adjust your AC and view car data like fuel level or speed shows how serious Apple is thinking about getting the software right on cars. But there were still a few surprises in store – ranging from the debut of the next-generation CarPlay to the ability to use your iPhone as a webcam on a Mac. Here’s everything we weren’t expecting at WWDC 2022. The best part is you don’t have to connect the iPhone to the Mac; the computer will instantly recognise the unit.

Apple took the wraps off new Macs, a new CarPlay and more at its annual Worldwide Developer Conference (WWDC) this week.

WWDC gave Apple an opportunity to reveal new versions of the operating systems for its watch, iPad and Mac coming this fall. Apple will begin selling the new laptops starting in July at the same price as existing models and has discounted the existing 13-inch MacBook Pro to make room for the new models. Apple touted iCloud Shared Photo library at WWDC as a convenient new way for families and friends to share memories. Apple’s emphasizing new productivity features like Stage Manager to better manage the clutter of many open apps. Apple received fierce criticism earlier this year for the webcam in its premium-priced $1,599 27-inch Studio Display, which users said produced very low-quality images. Apple, a long-time Arm licensee, developed its own custom silicon to power the iPhone and the iPad. But for years, Apple’s Mac computers continued to use microprocessors made by Intel and a succession of Intel and third-party graphics processing units (GPUs) from Nvidia and rival AMD. Apple said 98% of new car models sold in the U.S. support CarPlay — in its current implementation. Which ostensibly gives CarPlay app makers a year or so to get things with the new tech right, before people start messing around with their custom dash designs. Apple Inc. kicked off its annual Worldwide Developer Conference (WWDC) on Monday with an ambitious vision of CarPlay’s future, and promised buy-in from automakers, though it’ll take a while before new features actually make it to cars. As with other tech giants, Apple uses its developer event to frame both public and developer expectations. But Apple’s new CarPlay implementation is certainly a much more ambitious and complete reach than Android Auto. Apple introduced a lot of new technology this week, but it’s probably worth noting what Apple didn’t introduce: Any new Augmented Reality (AR) headset or VR device.

WWDC's keynote did not go entirely as we predicted. In fact, we got some of the biggest announcements wrong. Here's our post-mortem.

Perhaps Apple is planning to introduce a new case design, but given the taller (but identical footprint) of the new Mac Studio, I'm guessing Apple's going to stay with that design. With the relatively recent introductions of the 14-inch and 16-inch MacBook Pros, I didn't expect Apple to want to rev their base model. But the big update for iOS 16 is a highly-customizable lock screen, and that didn't show up in my crystal ball. But Apple did announce two new colors: Starlight (which is like rose gold, without the rose and not much gold), and Midnight (which is something like a 90% black). I did say that if Apple was going to update the MacBook Air, they would have to improve the terrible 720p camera, and they did. I predicted more workout modes, and there are indeed some big improvements in the fitness arena. The key thing to note is that the M2 will be the new base-level processor as of next month. The new MacBook Air has an 18% performance improvement over the M1 Air and sufficient battery power to fuel video playback for a whopping 18 hours. When it comes to colors, I said, "with a low (but greater than zero) probability, the new MacBook Air might come in iMac colors." In terms of screen improvements, I was half right and half wrong. Apple is using the M2 as the base point for its incremental processor upgrade strategy going forward. Our goal is to deliver the most accurate information and the most knowledgeable advice possible in order to help you make smarter buying decisions on tech gear and a wide array of products and services.

The company's annual developer conference kicked off today, with a keynote address stuffed with new product news.

There’s also a new 13-inch MacBook Pro with the M2 chip inside. Apple’s new chip is built on the same proprietary hardware that the company’s been packing into most of its new machines. But there’s also a new MacBook Air and a new M2 processor. Inside, there’s a new M2 chip (more on that below) that improves performance and battery life. The 2022 MacBook Air has a new case design that’s 20 percent thinner than the previous model, and it features slimmer bezels around the screen and a smaller notch for the webcam at the top of the display. Also, big news: It has MagSafe. The magnetic charging attachment appears on the new MacBook Air in place of the Thunderbolt charging that Apple has been moving toward lately.

iMessage users, the power to edit and unsend texts is yours. Tread carefully.

Apple announced a multitude of new features coming to the newest iteration of macOS, macOS Ventura, at WWDC 2022. Alongside major updates like Stage Manager ...

- Maps allows you to plan multiple stops along your route in advance. You can also use Siri to set an alarm or get official notifications about the weather. Similarly, others can add tabs to the shared group for you to access, too. You can also collaborate with others to see changes on your canvas in real-time. Everyone has permission to add, edit, and delete photos in the library. The app is useful for drawing out sketches and coming up with a plan. System Preferences has gotten a new name—and an updated design. - You can share photos based on a date or the people in the photos. You can also plan a journey on your Mac and then see the direction on your iPhone when you’re reading to go. Alongside major updates like Stage Manager, Continuity Camera, and Passkeys, there were lots of smaller macOS updates that you might have missed. - You can now undo sent emails, as well as scheduling email to send in the future. - Spotlight now has enhanced image search, which you can use to find images in Photos, Messages, Notes, and the web.

Apple announced iOS 16, iPadOS 16, watchOS 9, and macOS Ventura at WWDC 2022 on Monday. Here are the five best features that users can look forward to.

There are no interest or fees and it will be available for qualifying applicants in the United States. Multiple apps can be viewed both on the iPad and external display. A new multicamera view will display live feeds from every smart camera in the home. These can be resized, rearranged, and reconfigured into the perfect layout. Using Portrait Mode will blur the background for a professional appearance in video calls. This is available with participating car brands and access properties. Center Stage, a feature introduced with the M1 iPad launched in 2021. The position of app windows will be saved and stacked together, making it easy to keep track of projects or tasks. The Home App has been entirely rebuilt in iOS 16 to be more efficient. Switching between them can be done with a single click. Notifications now appear at the bottom of the screen so they don't hide device wallpaper. Here's what we liked the most.
