![]() At the same time, there are new features to consider, as well as a number of changes. Our CADtools freelancers have a great deal of experience with the latest incarnation of CADtools. We're fairly positive that each of the latest operating systems will make an appearance. Beyond iOS 15, we should see the latest tricks of iPadOS 15, tvOS 15, macOS 12 and watchOS 8. ![]() The latter will have to combat Google's exciting new Wear OS upgrades announced at Google IO last week. We don't expect the iPhone 13 or Apple Watch 7 to make appearances, but leaker Jon Prosser claimed (opens in new tab) on Twitter today that he can 'confirm macbook pro is coming' to WWDC 2021. We last heard that the new MacBook Pro with M1 chip could get a huge upgrade with up to 64GB of RAM, so we're excited to see if this proves true. Plus, the promo images for WWDC 2021 have all hinted at something related to Apple Glasses, so we've speculated for some time that Apple could finally show off its long-rumored AR/VR glasses next month.Īfter the keynote, Apple will hold a Platforms State of the Union at 2pm PT specifically targeted to developers it will take a 'deeper dive into the new tools, technologies, and advances across Apple platforms' and stream on the Apple Developers app (opens in new tab). On the Developers app, you'll find Pavilions where devs can search for relevant information on new products or a given topic. Apple will stream over 200 Sessions (opens in new tab) focused on iOS app development to the app as well across the five days, plus allow you to schedule 'one-on-one lab consultations' with Apple developers.Apple today kicked off its annual Worldwide Developers Conference (WWDC) with the traditional keynote presentation.Īs was the case last year, WWDC 2021 is an all-virtual event, with the keynote consisting of prerecorded video presentations that focused primarily on the next major revisions of Apple's operating systems for iPhone, iPad, Mac, and Apple Watch. What we didn't get today, was any hardware news, so those waiting to place an order for the much-anticipated redesigned MacBook Pro will have to wait a little longer. Read on for our summary of some highlights of today's announcements. Many of the below features will be coming to both iOS and iPadOS, so it makes sense to discuss the two platforms together. However, we will state where Apple has indicated that a feature will be only available on one of the platforms. Last year there were plenty of leaks ahead of WWDC which left Apple with very few surprises to Spring. This year Apple did a much better job of keeping things under wraps. What we got today included news of major updates to FaceTime and Notifications, Live Text using on-device intelligence, Home Screen and multitasking improvements for the iPad, and enhancements for Safari, Maps, Weather, and Wallet. FaceTimeĪpple is making some major enhancements to FaceTime, which it says will make calls feel more natural. This includes support for spatial audio, which should make voices in a FaceTime call sound as if they are coming from where the person is positioned on the screen. Additionally, new microphone modes separate the user’s voice from background noise. Portrait mode is also coming to FaceTime, and designed specifically for video calls, so users can blur their background and put themselves in focus. While using Group FaceTime, a new grid view enables participants to see more faces at the same time.Ī new FaceTime feature called SharePlay will allow users to share experiences, including listening to songs together with Apple Music, watching a TV show or movie in sync, or sharing their screen to view apps together. SharePlay works across iPhone, iPad, and Mac, and with shared playback controls, anyone in a SharePlay session can play, pause, or jump ahead. SharePlay will also be supported on Apple TV, so users can watch shows or movies on a big screen while connecting over FaceTime, and SharePlay will keep everyone’s playback in sync. Among those already planning to support SharePlay are Disney+, ESPN+, HBO Max, Hulu, MasterClass, Paramount+, Pluto TV, TikTok, and Twitch.įaceTime calls will also be extending beyond Apple devices with the ability to create a link from iPhone, iPad, or Mac, and share it through Messages, Calendar, Mail, or third-party apps, so people will be able to join a FaceTime call from their web browser on Android and Windows devices.Īpple stressed that FaceTime calls on the web remain end-to-end encrypted, so privacy is not compromised. Keep Focusedįocus is a new feature coming to iOS, iPadOS, and macOS that filters notifications and apps based on what a user wants to focus on.
