While the event will be largely online, the company plans to host an exclusive in-person gathering at Apple Park on the first day.
This year’s conference promises to go beyond just a routine software showcase. Apple developers and students worldwide will gain access to new tools, frameworks, and features designed to refine their apps and services.
The tech giant has confirmed that its latest software updates—including iOS 19, iPadOS, macOS, watchOS, and tvOS—will be at the centre of discussions.
Bloomberg previously reported that iOS 19 could be the most notable update since iOS 7, pointing to a complete redesign and major improvements.
Apple’s vice president of Worldwide Developer Relations, Susan Prescott, commented on the company’s commitment to its developer community, saying, “We’re excited to mark another incredible year of WWDC with our global developer community. We can’t wait to share the latest tools and technologies that will empower developers and help them continue to innovate.”
Reports have further revealed there might be other hardware announcements. Apple has remained tight-lipped, but we could see enhancements to Siri, deeper AI integrations, and possibly new Mac models.
Developers keen on attending the in-person event at Apple Park will need to apply, as space is limited. The experience will include a live Keynote and Platforms State of the Union, one-on-one interactions with Apple engineers, and hands-on workshops.
For students, Apple’s Swift Student Challenge provides a platform for young coders. Successful applicants will be notified of their selection on 27 March, with 50 Distinguished Winners receiving an invitation to Cupertino for an exclusive three-day experience.
Apple will release more details leading up to WWDC25 through its Developer app and official website.
