Its annual world developer conference Apple, will start on 22 June as an online event, and will be free to anyone who wants to attend.
Η company will run its conference digitally in response to COVID-19, which has forced the tech industry to cancel all physical events. Participants will be able to attend keynote talks and workshops through the relevant site of the event or through the application Apple Developer.
The event promises to highlight the upcoming features of iOS, macOS and watchOS software that will be released later this year. Developers will also have early access so they can start creating third-party applications around the Apple operating system.
«WWDC20 will be our largest conference to date, bringing together our global developer community of more than 23 million people in an unprecedented way for a week in June to learn about the future of its platforms Apple» said on Tuesday Phil Schiller, senior vice president of Apple.
It is speculated that the company may reveal new hardware. Last year, Apple introduced the updated Mac Pro, a powerful desktop with a cost starting at € 6.999. However, we suspect that WWDC 2020 is likely to have fewer announcements regarding new hardware. In recent weeks, Apple announced the updated iPhone SE and the brand new 13-inch MacBook Pro. At the same time, the company is trying to offer more subscription services, such as Apple TV + and Apple Arcade.
At the moment, the agenda for this year's conference is quite sparse. The only item on the event website is one coding challenge to encourage students to use the Swift programming language. However, the company plans to update its website with more information next month.
