Apple WWDC 2024 Highlights: Apple Worldwide Developers Conference (WWDC) 2024 commenced on June 10, and will run through June 14. While Apple has remained tight-lipped about the specifics of the event, speculation has been rife about what might be unveiled. According to industry insiders, the tech giant is likely to showcase several new software developments, including iOS 18, watchOS 11, and VisionOS 2.
Apple WWDC 2024: AI On iOS 18
In its bid to keep pace with competitors in the AI sector, Apple is rumoured to be making significant strides. Bloomberg's Mark Gurman has indicated that iOS 18 will be a "relatively groundbreaking" update featuring "major new features and designs," with a strong emphasis on artificial intelligence. Among the anticipated features are advanced photo retouching capabilities, including the ability to remove unwanted objects from images, and the introduction of auto-generated custom emojis based on users' messages.
Reports suggest that Apple's focus for this year's WWDC will be predominantly on software innovations. Enthusiasts hoping for hardware announcements might need to wait a bit longer. Let's delve into the potential highlights of this year's conference.
Apple WWDC 2024: What Else To Expect
Other expected updates in iOS 18 include AI-assisted writing in Pages, transcription for voice memos, and suggested replies for emails and messages. Additionally, improvements in Safari web search, a comprehensive overhaul of Siri potentially integrating large language models, and a smart recap feature for missed notifications and messages are also on the cards. Furthermore, users might see auto-generated playlists in Apple Music tailored to their inputs, such as specific moods or themes.
Historically, macOS and iOS have shared numerous features, and this year appears to be no different. Although most rumours have centred around iOS 18, it is likely that many of its new features will also be incorporated into macOS 15.
WWDC 2024 promises to be an exciting event for developers and Apple enthusiasts alike, with substantial advancements in software that could redefine user experiences across Apple's ecosystem.
As in previous years, the conference is expected to be held at the Steve Jobs Theatre in Apple Park, Cupertino, California.
