Apple WWDC 2023 Live Updates: Follow this space to get latest updates on what Apple will announce at its annual developers conference.

Background

Apple is set to begin its annual Worldwide Developers Conference (WWDC) today, June 5. The annual conference runs through June 9 and we can expect the event to kick off with an opening keynote address from the Cupertino giant’s CEO Tim Cook. This year's edition of WWDC is more interesting as the tech giant is expected to announce its much-awaited AR/VR  headset, "several Macs" and other offerings. details of the upcoming headset were recently leaked; purportedly called Apple's XR headset, the device is likely to have micro-OLED displays with a peak brightness of more than 5,000 nits, according to Ross Young, CEO of Display Supply Chain Consultants.Where To Watch Apple WWDC 2023 Event Live?Apple offers several ways fans can catch up with all its live events. You can catch WWDC live on Apple’s official YouTube channel and you can also watch the event live via the official company website.The leaked peak brightness in the display of Apple's XR headset is much higher than an iPhone 14 Pro's panel with a maximum brightness of 2,000 nits. According to the WWDC 2023 schedule, Apple will start the keynote on June 5 at 10 am PT or 10:30 pm IST. The in-person event will be held at the company headquarters, Apple Park, located in Cupertino, California, US.  As mentioned, the Cupertino, California-based tech giant is likely to announce its next iOS iteration -- iOS 17, macOS 14, watchOS 10 and a 15-inch MacBook Air, among other hardware. The tech giant is also testing “a pair of new high-end Macs” with the M2 Max chip and an unannounced M2 Ultra chipset, Bloomberg's Mark Gurman recently said.Another major highlight of the event would be the announcement of iOS 17. The latest iteration of iOS is likely to include a new Journalling app, the ability to sideload apps, bring modifications to the Always-On display and add enhancements to the Control Center and Health app. When it comes to the release date of iOS 17, the latest version of iOS, we can expect iOS 17 to be available as a developer beta after Apple's WWDC keynote on Monday.It is pertinent to note that developer beta seed is available to only registered Apple developers. Apple has traditionally followed a predictable schedule and according to that it is likely to release a public beta of iOS 17, a few weeks after WWDC 2023. This means it may be rolled out by the end of June or the first few weeks of July, reports suggest.
