Apple today announced that its 2026 Worldwide Developer Conference will run June 8-12. And as the event does every year, WWDC 26 will kick off with a special keynote event on June 8. The event will be broadcast live inside the Apple TV app and on YouTube.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Apple hasn\u2019t announced an official time for the keynote, but it typically starts at 10 a.m. Pacific\/1 p.m. Eastern. During the keynote is when we\u2019ll get our first look at Apple\u2019s next generation of software releases, including iOS, iPadOS, and macOS 27.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In its announcement for the event, Apple says updates will include \u201cAI enhancements and exciting new software and developer tools.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n

We\u2019re looking forward to more details on the new-and-improved Siri<\/a> built atop Google Gemini, along with further refinements to the Liquid Glass design language Apple unveiled during last year\u2019s WWDC. (Let\u2019s cross our fingers doubly for some much needed attention on the Mac\u2019s implementation of Liquid Glass in particular\u2026)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As always, we\u2019ll cover everything you need to know from WWDC 26, so stay tuned to Rocket Yard.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
