This is what we expect at WWDC 2017

With just a week left for one of the most anticipated events of the year for the entire Apple community. As we know, the next WWDC (Worldwide Developers Conference) It will take place from June 5 to 9. As the North American company already has us accustomed, the event will begin at 10.00 am local time (about 7.pm in Spain; you can see the exact time in your location here) Y will take place at the McEnery Convention Center, in San José, California.

Normally, this conference brings with it the long-awaited updates to the company's own operating systems. It is now the turn of iOS 11 for mobile devices, macOS 10.13 for all Macs, as well as watchOS 4 for the company's watches and tvOS 10 for Apple TV. However, the next keynote promises much more than just "routine" updates. Apparently, we can see a new business niche where Apple will definitely enter from this summer.

What can we expect?

Although Apple's efforts to arrive at the time of presentation with all its novelties intact and in secret is evident, it is true that it seems increasingly difficult for the brand to have control over the rumors and leaks that appear in the press day after day. However, We can never rule out the odd surprise that the Cupertino guys have managed to hide.

Next, we will detail what is planned for the big day. Being a conference specifically designed for developers in the Apple ecosystem, it goes without saying that updates to their operating systems, with new functionalities and greater security, will cover the bulk of the event. In addition, it is possible that Apple also presents something related to Virtual Reality. In terms of hardware, some rumors indicate that it is possible that Apple will take advantage of the event to present a new iPad Pro, as well as new features in the 12 ″ MacBook Pro. It may also be that some time is spent integrating Amazon Prime with Apple TV. Finally, we may see the first update of the AirPods, headphones that are about to be on the market for one year.

Operating system updates

As in every WWDC, year after year Apple presents the most important news in software for all its devices. Thus, we expect renovations and safety and design improvements in:

• iOS 11: there is talk of a new and redesigned night mode, greater energy efficiency of the device and widget in the control center.
• macOS 10.13: new commands for Siri, a better interface and higher performance and energy efficiency for all Mac models.
• watch OS 4: new areas and improved memory management for iWatch.
• TvOS 4 for Apple TV.

Virtual Reality comes to Apple

There is talk that he may be the big cover this year. Virtual reality has proven that it is here to stay. Apple needs to enter a booming market and that promises to be the key for years to come. Apparently, the future iPhone and iPad will have a front camera that allows VR This would mean very interesting and novel apps and functions.

New iPad Pro?

In hardware rumors, the Cupertino-based company appears to be considering adding to its product portfolio, an iPad Pro with dimensions different from those already known from Apple. Rumors point to a new size of 10.5 ″, in contrast to the current 12.9 ″.

Refurbished 12 ″ MacBook Pro

Some rumors point also to new 12 ″ MacBook Pro models as our partner Pedro told us in the middle of May, a device that has not been updated for a long time since its launch last year.

Amazon Prime will be available for Apple TV

It is an open secret. The companies have an agreement between them to present the new Amazon content platform in the WWDCWhere some demo of this with the Apple TV is foreseen. This is an update that has taken too long to complete.

New AirPods

They have been the star components of the last times. Apple hit the key once more. The factories that work for Apple do not give enough to the huge demand for AirPods they are having all over the world. Apparently, the idea is that together with the new iPhone this year, some renewed AirPods are added in the same box after completing its first year on the market.

We will see, in just one week, what the Cupertino boys surprise us with and what else they have in store for us. As usual, you can follow the event on the official Apple website, through any platform or device. We will be here live to tell you all the news minute by minute.
