Overview
- Apple, which announced the June 8–12 dates Monday, will open with a 10 a.m. PT keynote and a limited in‑person gathering at Apple Park, with the rest streamed free.
- Eligible developers and students can apply for the Apple Park spots until March 30, with lottery winners slated to be notified on April 2.
- Apple says the week spotlights AI advances, and outlets expect a chatbot‑style Siri that may use Google’s Gemini models, which Apple has not confirmed.
- Reports point to previews of iOS 27, macOS 27, iPadOS 27, watchOS 27, tvOS 27 and visionOS 27, with an emphasis on speed, bug fixes and performance over big design changes.
- More than 100 sessions, labs and one‑on‑one appointments are planned, with developer betas expected after the keynote as Apple seeks to move past iOS 26 complaints about bugs, battery drain and stuttering animations.
