For years, WWDC has been where Apple has showcased the next major version of its iOS platform for iPhone and iPad. I expect the 2013 conference will be no different, and will feature the unveiling of iOS 7.
In addition, comments made by Apple marketing chief Phil Schiller in a press release issued by the company last Wednesday suggest that Apple could also unveil to developers OS X 10.9, the next version of the Mac operating system.
Add to the comments made in Apple’s Q2 earnings statement, iOS 7 will launch with the next iPhone as well.
The last quarter promises to be an exciting one for Apple.
If you’re wondering what Apple has planned, look below.
WWDC 2013 activities include:
• More than 100 technical sessions presented by Apple engineers on a wide range of topics for developing, deploying and integrating the latest iOS and OS X technologies;
• more than 1,000 Apple engineers supporting over 100 hands-on labs and events to provide developers with code-level assistance, insight into optimal development techniques and guidance on how they can make the most of iOS and OS X technologies in their apps;
• the latest innovations, features and capabilities of iOS and OS X, and how to enhance an app’s functionality, performance, quality and design;
• the opportunity to connect with thousands of fellow iOS and OS X developers from around the world—last year more than 60 countries were represented;
• engaging and inspirational lunchtime sessions with leading minds and influencers from the worlds of technology, science and entertainment; and
• Apple Design Awards which recognize iPhone®, iPad® and Mac apps that demonstrate technical excellence, innovation and outstanding design.
