Apple Sets WWDC 2026 for June 8–12, Teasing AI-Focused Keynote

The schedule signals sweeping software previews centered on Siri and Apple Intelligence.

Overview

  • Apple, which on Monday sent media invites and posted the WWDC 2026 schedule, set the keynote for 10 a.m. PT on June 8 with public streams on Apple.com, the Apple TV app and YouTube and a select in‑person audience at Apple Park.
  • A Platforms State of the Union for developers will stream at 1 p.m. PT the same day, with more than 100 video sessions, live Group Labs Q&A, Apple Design Awards finalists and Swift Student Challenge winners featured across the week.
  • Reporters expect first looks at iOS 27, iPadOS 27, macOS 27, watchOS 27, tvOS 27 and visionOS 27, continuing Apple’s annual cycle of OS previews at WWDC.
  • Coverage points to AI as the headline theme, with widespread reports of a more conversational Siri and broader Apple Intelligence features, including a redesigned interface and new ways to interact that remain unconfirmed until the keynote.
  • Multiple outlets also report Apple may tap Google’s Gemini models and TPU cloud infrastructure for some assistant features, a move that would raise fresh questions about how Apple pairs outside AI with its privacy promises.
