Apple has sent out invites to this year’s edition of its Worldwide Developers Conference keynote scheduled for Monday, June 3 at 10 a.m. Pacific. The conference will hold in San Jose, California and will end on June 7.
The week-long event brings together Apple’s developers and will have as its focus, Apple’s OSes which power iPhones, iPad, Macs, Apple Watches and Apple TV set-top boxes. The major highlight, though, is the opening day when Apple holds a keynote that will be streamed live. During the keynote event, Apple will take the veil off the new features that would accompany its next-gen iOS, macOS, watchOS and tvOS.
Despite software being the major focus of WWDC, Apple has in the past announced a couple of new hardware at the developers’ conference. For instance, the HomePod speaker was first introduced at the 2017 edition of WWDC as well as the 10.5-inch iPad Pro, the iMac Pro desktop and updated versions of the MacBook lineup. Last year, Apple announced UIKit, a developer tool that lets software makers more easily bring their iOS offerings to the Mac. Work with UIKit was expected to begin in earnest in 2019, so this year’s WWDC will likely provide Apple with the opportunity to show off some of the progress so far.

Most importantly, Apple will also give us a sneak peek of the iOS 13 which is the next version of the custom operating system software for iPhones and iPads. If Apple sticks with its schedule from previous years, then the public beta of iOS 13 will start rolling a few weeks after WWDC ends. Among the new features expected on iOS 13 is a dark mode that makes it easier to see your device screen at night while reducing battery consumption. There’s also likely to be many iPad-specific improvements in iOS 13 since last year’s iOS 12 didn’t bring many features to Apple’s tablet lineup.
