There are two months on the Apple calendar that stand out above all others: September and June. Of course, September is when we get new iPhones, but June is when we find out all about the version of iOS that will be running on them. We’re talking about Apple’s annual Worldwide Developers Conference, which kicks off with a keynote this year on June 8, followed by the first developer betas of the new operating system updates.
And this year’s show will be massive. Along with the usual new features and fixes, all eyes will be on Apple this year because it is expected to introduce, at long last, a massive overhaul to Siri and the way AI is used throughout iOS, iPadOS, and macOS. Here’s everything we expect at the big show and throughout the month.
New hardware releases
We’ve been waiting for a few Mac updates for some time now. The M5 Mac mini, the M5 Ultra update to the Mac Studio, and M5 iMacs are all supposed to be on the way… eventually. The most recent rumors claimed they would launch in the first half of this year, which would normally mean at or around WWDC. Macs are a good fit for WWDC, an event focused on developers, and Apple has often used the stage to announce new models. But this isn’t a normal year.
If you haven’t heard, we’re in the middle of a huge supply shortage for key components, especially RAM. Certain Mac models are very hard to find—it can take weeks or months to get a new Mac mini, for example. Apple likely has most, if not all, of these new Macs essentially ready to go, but won’t release them while key components are in such short supply that most customers won’t be able to get one.
It’s also possible, though unlikely, that Apple will preview some of its upcoming products powered by the new Siri, such as the long-rumored “home hub” device or cameras. These products wouldn’t be able to release until the fall anyway, but Apple has used the WWDC stage to preview new platforms months before they ship, including HomePod and Vision Pro. So an early look at one or more of the rumored products is possible.
Apps and software updates
OS 26.6 updates: The beta tests of the OS 26.6 updates started on May 26, and the final release should be in June sometime. We’re expecting nothing more than bug fixes and security updates in this one, with the possible exception of supporting new hardware if Apple releases new Macs or something.
OS 27: On June 8, the big OS 27 updates will be announced at Apple’s WWDC keynote, including iOS, iPadOS, macOS, watchOS, tvOS, and visionOS. For more on what we expect from these updates, check out our iOS 27 guide and macOS 27 guide, but you can expect a heavy dose of Apple Intelligence features, including our first actual look at the new Siri.
OS 27 developer beta: Following the keynote, Apple will likely make the developer beta available immediately. Apple typically releases two or three rounds of developer-only betas before the first public beta, which will probably come in July.
