Apple's WWDC 2026 is set for June 8-12

Apple announced that this year's Worldwide Developers Conference (WWDC) will take place from June 8-12. The company tends to be consistent with event timing, so it's no surprise that CEO Tim Cook will take the stage for the keynote on June 8, most likely at 1PM ET. This keynote is happening in-person at Apple Park. Much of WWDC will take place online and will be free to attend. 

What should we expect this time around? This is a software-focused event and all indications point toward a reveal of the upcoming "27" operating systems. This would include iOS 27, iPadOS 27, macOS 27, visionOS 27, watchOS 27 and macOS 27.

We don't know for certain what new features these operating system updates will bring to the table, with Bloomberg's Mark Gurman suggesting that WWDC will be "a fairly muted affair this year." Rumors have indicated that iOS 27 will deliver much-needed improvements to Apple Intelligence along with the delayed Siri overhaul. Reports also suggest the presence of split-pane multitasking, a redesigned Health app and a new battery management system for iPhones. 

In any event, we don't have that long to wait. Engadget will be on hand to report on all of the announcements and reveals.This article originally appeared on Engadget at https://www.engadget.com/apps/apples-wwdc-2026-is-set-for-june-8-12-171359493.html?src=rss
