Apple will talk iOS 27, macOS 27, and more at WWDC 2026 on June 8

WWDC is often light on hardware, but it’s where big software announcements happen. Apple announced today that it would be holding its annual Worldwide Developers Conference (WWDC) from June 8 to 12 this year, giving both developers and the general public a first look at “incredible updates for Apple platforms, including AI advancements and exciting new software and developer tools.” The conference will start with an in-person “special event” at the company’s Apple Park headquarters that will also be streamed online via YouTube and Apple’s Developer app, among other places. Apple occasionally introduces new hardware at WWDC, but the presentation is usually dedicated mostly to the major software releases that Apple will test all summer and release alongside new iPhones and other products in the fall. We don’t know much for sure about what’s coming in the new releases, but we can probably expect iOS 27, iPadOS 27, macOS 27, and the other new updates to refine the Liquid Glass design language, introduce the promised “AI advancements,” and end support for the last remaining Intel Macs. Like the past few years, Apple will primarily host the developer-centric parts of the conference onlin
