What to Expect from WWDC 2024?
This year, Apple will focus more on software rather than new gadgets. Here's a glimpse of what's coming:
AI and Software Integration
Apple Intelligence: Apple will likely introduce a new AI system called Apple Intelligence. This will bring advanced AI features to iPhones, iPads, and Macs. They are partnering with OpenAI to integrate a ChatGPT-like chatbot.
Privacy and Security: Apple will emphasise its commitment to privacy and security. Users can opt-in to the new AI features, which will use a mix of on-device and cloud-based processing.
iOS 18 Highlights
Smart Recap: This feature will summarise missed messages and notifications.
Voice Memo Transcription: Automatically transcribe voice memos.
AI-generated Emojis: Create custom emojis based on the words you're typing.
Improved Siri: Siri will get better with new AI capabilities, allowing more precise control over apps and actions.
Other Software Updates
macOS 15: Expect AI-driven enhancements like smart writing in Pages, slide creation in Keynote, and code suggestions in Xcode.
iPadOS 18: Features similar to iOS 18, focusing on productivity and creativity with improved multitasking and Apple Pencil integration.
watchOS 11: New health and fitness features, enhanced sleep tracking, and stress management tools.
visionOS 2.0: Updates for the Vision Pro headset with new AR capabilities and better performance.
Customisation and New Features
iOS Home Screen: Users will be able to place app icons anywhere on the home screen and customise icon colours.
Control Center: Updated interface with rearrangeable shortcut buttons and a new music widget.
Settings App: Improved navigation and better organisation.
Messages App: Schedule messages, use new emoji effects, and more.
Passwords App: A new app for managing passwords, offering an alternative to services like 1Password.
Health App: Improved blood pressure data management and new hearing test features.
No New Hardware This Year
Unlike last year, when Apple unveiled the Vision Pro, this year’s WWDC will not feature new hardware. However, the software updates will pave the way for new devices expected later in the fall, including enhanced Apple Watches and AirPods.
