Apple, on Tuesday, revealed that this year's Worldwide Developers Conference (WWDC) is set to take place from June 10 through 14, 2024. The tech giant said that the event will be available online, with a special in-person gathering kicking off the festivities at Apple Park on opening day.
With a focus on inclusivity, Apple said that WWDC24 will be accessible to all developers free of charge. The conference promises to shine a spotlight on the latest advancements across iOS, iPadOS, macOS, watchOS, tvOS, and visionOS.
Investors are closely watching for updates on artificial intelligence development at Apple, which has so far spoken little about incorporating the technology into its devices. The company earlier this year lost the crown as the world's most valuable company to Microsoft.
The company also plans to make the iPhone home screen more customisable in
iOS 18, which some reports have said could mark the biggest update to the iPhone operating system in years.
The developers conference comes at a time when sales of
Apple's iPhone remain weak, while those of Macs and iPads have fallen amid a worldwide slump in gadget sales.
At last year's conference, Apple unveiled the Vision Pro mixed reality headset, a new core processor, and new computers.
For those looking for an in-person experience, Apple Park will open its doors on June 10. Apple said that the limited space will be available for developers to attend the keynote, meet with Apple team members, and participate in special activities. Details on how to secure a spot will be provided on the Apple Developer site and app.
